The Mach M8 Espresso Machine is a high-precision, manual lever espresso maker, crafted for coffee aficionados who desire complete control over their brewing process. Designed with Italian-inspired mechanical aesthetics, this machine empowers users to fine-tune every stage of espresso extraction. By adjusting the lever action, you can achieve optimal pressure throughout the pre-infusion, medium pressure, and high-pressure stages to create a balanced, rich, and flavorful cup of espresso. Tip for Optimal Use:To get the best results with the Mach M8, begin by holding the handle firmly and slowly raising the lever. As you push the lever down, the pressure will start to rise—targeting up to 9 bars if desired. Adjust the lever speed and rhythm to control the pressure at different stages of extraction. Follow these pressure stages to enhance flavor: 3-5 Bar (Low Pressure): Moisten and stabilize the coffee grounds, allowing them to fully expand and release initial aromas. 6-9 Bar (Medium Pressure): Gradually increase the pressure to balance acidity and sweetness. 9-12 Bar (High Pressure): Apply slow, high pressure to extract more oils and flavor compounds for a rich, full-bodied espresso. Key Features Precision Lever Pressure Control: Adjustable pressure from 3 to 12 bars using lever action, allowing full control over the espresso’s flavor profile from pre-infusion to high-pressure extraction.
