Featuring an advanced pump boiler system and two filter choices, the commercial-grade Capresso cafe Pro professional espresso and cappuccino machine is the ideal choice for brewing cafe quality espresso and cappuccino at home. The cafe Pro is equipped with two filter options that allow Coffee lovers at any skill level to prepare barista-quality espresso. The heavy-duty double spout espresso filter, designed for beginners, is convenient and easy to use, brewing one or two espressos at a time. The filter’s sieve helps produce an ideal brew quickly and easily, by creating optimal pressure without having to perfect tamp or grind size. Ideal for expert home brewers and those looking to improve their barista skills, the cafe pro’s bottomless espresso filter lets users brew barista style. Unlike the double spout filter sieve, the pressure in this sieve is built up based on grind size and tamp. The bottomless sieve produces a richer, thicker crema and a hotter brew because the espresso has less contact with the surfaces of the Porta filter. We recommend espresso beginners use the double spout filter and 2-cup sieve to create the optimal brew quickly and easily. For more advanced users, we suggest experimenting with the bottomless filter and sieve. By adjusting the grind size, tamp pressure or quality/age of the Coffee, your espresso brewing technique will drastically improve the coffee’s taste. When used correctly, the bottomless filter will produce a richer crema and a hotter brew.

Awesome. Life changer. Great crema! With the pressurized portafilter, the shots are very nice. I struggled with the pro portafilter (as the manual warns), but received a tip from a barista to do 3 separate coffee layers, tamping each one. This works with the right grind. Getting the right grind and filling the portafilter right is key. I’m taking one star of for the tamper they provided bring light weight plastic. To have any chance at using the pro portafilter successfully I felt a heavy tamper was needed, so I…
Know your expectations This does make a good espresso. I’ve dialed it in and I can tell, I pull better espresso from this machine than not well adjusted much higher end machines I have access to at work. Really getting correct adjustments for the bean, grind, dose is much more significant factor than equipment.That being said, there are draw backs / this machine won’t feature.1. It has no 3 way solenoid valve: you will always end up with very watery soupy grinds in your filter every time you pull a…
even when the machine is left to heat for a good time. Using the steamer first and then letting … I’m not a fan of this espresso maker. I actually had been looking a two different models when I was looking to buy and purchased the wrong one. Didn’t realize this is why it was different than I expected, until it was too late to exchange. Coffee comes out weak and too cold, even when the machine is left to heat for a good time. Using the steamer first and then letting it sit sometimes helps. I’m using good quality, espresso grind coffee and tamping properly, so I’m not sure why the coffee…
