La Pavoni Grande Bellezza Espresso Machine

The lever operation gives you full manual control over the pre-infusion time and extraction pressure. Unlike automatic machines, you determine the flow rate by how much force you apply to the lever, allowing for a highly personalized shot profile.

The standard steam wand provides the control needed for professional-style microfoam, while the automatic frother is a convenient option for beginners or those who prefer a hands-off approach to milk texturing.

The traditional double-spout portafilter is ideal for serving two cups or maintaining a clean workspace. The bottomless portafilter is a diagnostic tool that helps you observe the extraction process, making it easier to refine your grind size and tamping technique for better crema.

Copper is excellent for thermal stability, but like any boiler, it is susceptible to scale buildup. We recommend using filtered or softened water to extend the life of the internal components and ensure the best flavor.

While you can pull shots by feel, the mounted pressure gauge is a vital reference point for consistency. It helps you learn how much pressure is required to achieve the ideal 9-bar extraction, which is especially helpful for beginners.

The machine has a compact footprint of 7.5 inches wide by 10.25 inches deep. However, ensure you have enough vertical clearance to fully raise the lever, which adds to the total height of 16 inches.
