LUCCA X58 Espresso Machine

The heat exchanger allows you to brew espresso and steam milk at the same time by drawing water through a heat-exchanging tube inside the main boiler. This setup provides continuous steam pressure, making it ideal for crafting multiple milk-based drinks back-to-back without waiting for the machine to recover.

Yes, because the E61 group head is a large, heavy brass component, it needs time to reach thermal stability. We recommend a 20-minute warm-up period to ensure the group head and your portafilter are hot enough to maintain consistent brewing temperatures.

The LUCCA X58 features a specialized pump modification that significantly dampens the vibration typically associated with vibratory pumps. While it is not silent, it operates much more quietly than most machines in its class, making it a better fit for shared living spaces.

Joystick controls allow for instant, full-pressure steam or hot water with a quick flick, rather than having to unscrew a knob multiple times. This provides a more tactile, efficient workflow, especially when you are steaming milk for several drinks in a row.

The integrated shot timer automatically starts as soon as you engage the brew lever, allowing you to monitor your extraction time in real-time. It eliminates the need for an external scale or timer, helping you dial in your grind size and consistency with greater precision.

Yes, the insulated steam wand stays cool to the touch during operation, which prevents milk from baking onto the exterior surface. This makes it much easier to wipe clean with a damp cloth immediately after steaming.
