Traditional espresso machines are commonly found in coffee shops and restaurants. When selecting an espresso machine, it's important to consider factors such as budget, volume, available space, group operation type, and steaming features. Decisions regarding the number of group heads, whether to opt for semi-automatic or auto-volumetric group operation, auto-steam capabilities, and choosing between single heat-exchange boilers or dual boilers can be overwhelming. That's where we come in to help.

Traditional espresso machines are what most users are familiar with for a coffee shop or restaurant. These machines are built with one to four brew group heads, have one to three milk steaming arms and require the operator to manually load the coffee for brewing with the use of a separate specialized dosing grinder. ESI has been importing and selling traditional espresso machines for 30 years and has sold thousands of machines during this time.
