This machine measures 11W x 10D x 16H inches and weighs 20 pounds.Pump-driven technologyThe ULKA electric pump is super-quiet ideal for when you're making espresso in the morning while the rest of the household is still asleep. It warms up in just 2 minutes and is ready to produce up to 15 BAR pressure. The pressurized coffee handle lets you produce triple the volume of crema than other machines in this class.

Do not immerse this machine in water.What does "BAR pressure" mean?Pressure is the result of the packed (tamped) coffee giving the water resistance to pass through. The pump forces the water through that resistance and the power it needs to do so is commonly measured in BAR (= kg per square centimeter). A pressure rating is used on most pump-driven espresso machines. 9 BAR the typical accepted pressure for brewing espresso is 8.8 atmospheres of pressure or 130 pounds per square inch. Good pumps should be able to create more pressure (power) than they need to produce perfect espresso so that they don't break when the right combination (fineness and consistency of grind tamping and amount of ground coffee) is not prevalent. A good pump has a capacity of creating 15 or more BARs. To produce a lasting crema on top of your espresso the water should pass through the coffee at approximately 7 to 9 BARs of pressure.About la PavoniSince 1905 la Pavoni has been building fine espresso machines in a classic Italian tradition.
