Elektra Micro Casa Semi Automatica 1 gruppo Oro e Ottone - Nuova

The gold-plated group head is even more stunning in person, and the weight of the machine feels incredibly solid. I’ve pulled a dozen shots already, and the steam pressure for frothing milk is surprisingly consistent right out of the box.

I was a bit nervous about the size on my counter, but the polished brass side panels and mirror-like chrome really make it a centerpiece. The first shot came out with a rich, thick crema, and the steam wand is incredibly responsive for texturing milk. It’s a bit of a learning curve to get the temper

The gold-plated brass group head is even more stunning in person—it catches the light beautifully. I spent my first morning just admiring the machine before even pulling a shot, and the espresso it made was rich and smooth. This is a true centerpiece for any coffee lover’s counter.
