Yes. Because it is constructed from durable 18/10 stainless steel and was developed in collaboration with the Barista Association of Italy, it is specifically engineered to handle the repetitive, heavy-duty use found in professional coffee settings.

The stainless steel body is easy to wipe down with a damp cloth. For a deeper clean, you can wash it with warm, soapy water, though we recommend hand drying it immediately to maintain the finish of the steel.

With a height of 4.1 inches, it has a compact footprint that fits well on most standard countertops without taking up excessive space. It is designed to be unobtrusive while remaining easily accessible for your workflow.
