Astoria Greta professional sieve grinder

Astoria Greta SAE/AEP professional portafilter coffee machine

Robust professional technology in household machine format - The best for first-class espresso

The very compact dimensions of the Astoria Greta and the extremely simple operation make the Greta the ideal coffee machine for smaller restaurants , offices and also for professional connoisseurs at home. Simply anywhere where a perfect espresso is required, but the sales volumes do not justify a significantly larger and multi-group coffee machine because the average coffee requirement is rather low. The very powerful 2-liter water boiler builds up a lot of pressure and not only ensures good temperature stability , but also a powerful steam that is close to that of a dual-boiler portafilter machine.

The Astoria Greta impresses with its absolutely professional, robust components . The high-quality thermosyphon brewing group can also be found in the "large" Astoria machines and ensures optimal extraction of the coffee grounds through pre-infusion . During development, the aim was to achieve the most compact size possible for professional use . The result is the Astoria Greta and always impresses with its quality and first-class espresso. The high-mounted brewing group in particular makes it easier to prepare coffee specialties in glasses or to-go containers. A folding grid creates the right distance for cups or small glasses.

The choice is yours! You can order the steel casing of the Astoria Greta in Rosso (red) or Bianco (white). Mama Mia – but we promise: Both are typically Italian and enchant with great coffee enjoyment. The classic design optimizes the workflow and the Astoria Greta is easy to clean. The cup preheating is highlighted by a high-quality polyacrylic attachment and the good workstation lighting ensures the right visibility even in dark workplaces.

A vibration pump and a 4-liter fresh water tank are included in the delivery. This makes the Astoria Greta very versatile in terms of setup. A permanent water connection is also possible as an extra. The Astoria Greta is then connected to the water pipe with an additional built-in volumetric pump. The pump is necessary to overcome the high internal pressure in the boiler - the water tank and vibration pump are not required with this option. The weight increases by approx. 5 KG.

SAE Electronics - 6 program buttons for more comfort and time saving

The integrated electronics of the Astoria Greta always deliver the right amount of water, the optimal pressure and the right flow rate at the touch of a button - including the necessary pre-brewing. There are 6 different push buttons with the corresponding dosages available. At the same time, the barista can froth milk and take care of the final preparation. Professionals in particular appreciate this quick and easy handling and even less experienced users always get the same quality in their cup.

Conclusion:

The small, versatile machine for professional and semi-professional use: its small dimensions and easy operation make Greta the ideal machine for offices or cafes with low coffee consumption. The internal components are identical to those of professional machines, the internal parts are just more compact: this guarantees the quality of the espresso.
