Espresso At Home—Giotto Machine
Review
Dear Cyber Reader
As you are reading this, I can assume
that you are driven to have the finest
tasting espresso you can prepare at
your fingertips. You are seeking quality.
But, let's be honest now, doesn't a
little (or a lot) of sex appeal in the
machine make a difference?
If your like me you need a quality espresso,
but a little sizzle helps prepare the
mood. Well, have I got good new s for
you. The Giotto makes the best espresso
of any home machine I have tested and
most of the commercial ones too. And
it looks like morphing chromium, oozing
over your bar. Take a look at the photo
of the Giotto below. |

The
Machine
The group head design is similar to
the old E-61 of the Faema but has been
re-engineered by the Manufacturer, ECM
(Espresso Coffee Machines) of Milano,
Italy.
Changes include a re-designed thermo-syphon
type of heat exchanger, with a flow
control feature built in. As you can
surmise, one of the biggest problems
facing espresso machine engineers is
the effort to control the temperature
when different volumes of water are
demanded. Additional temperature stabilization
efforts include a thick brass endplate
for the boiler that serves as a heat
sink.
So what we have here is the best effort
at producing an espresso machine for
the home with professional machine engineering.
And, they have succeeded. |
