Bezzera BZ13 DE Espresso Machine Red

Overview

The Bezzera BZ13 DE Espresso Machine Red is an NSF certified, heat-exchanger espresso machine that masterfully combines industrial charm with modern technology, making it a true delight to operate. For starters, the BZ13 DE is engineered for quick readiness; its copper heat-exchanger boiler heats up to brewing temperature in a mere 8 minutes. This means that while you complete your morning routine of grinding, leveling, and tamping your coffee, the BZ13 will likely be ready to brew even before you are. Plus, it now includes a bottomless portafilter for enhanced brewing feedback.

Features and Performance

Heat-exchanger boilers are a significant advantage for serious coffee enthusiasts. If you frequently host guests and prepare multiple milk-based beverages back-to-back, then a machine like the BZ13 DE is perfectly suited for your lifestyle, as you can brew and steam simultaneously. The intuitive PID controller is a key feature, which conveniently doubles as a shot timer and provides stable temperatures that you can adjust on the fly as needed. You’ll gain direct control over the steam boiler’s temperature, with the PID displaying the brew temperature offset on the screen. This PID adds a crucial degree of consistency and control, accentuating the boiler’s performance for both powerful steam and stable brew temperatures.

Why You Should Get It

The Bezzera BZ13 DE Espresso Machine Red offers the best of both worlds, blending automated convenience with manual control. Its two programmable buttons on the face of the machine allow you to pull single or double shots with just one push, with a third button dedicated to manual brewing. This means the machine can automatically pull shots, leaving you free to froth milk, assist customers (if in a commercial setting), or enjoy your breakfast. You also have the flexibility to brew manually, allowing you to experiment with shot extraction or create new brew recipes to perfect your craft.

If you’re considering opening a bed and breakfast or simply entertain a lot of guests, the unique design of the brew group and surrounding frame provides the BZ13 with one of the hottest cup trays we’ve seen, ensuring your cups are always pre-warmed. Its NSF certification further underscores its suitability for both home and light commercial use, making it a beautiful and flexible machine for any setting.
