A machine to make your own.
Freshly ground. Every morning.
Small tools. Better mornings.
The ECM Mechanika VI Slim Digital PID Espresso Machine is a compact yet powerful espresso machine designed for home baristas seeking high-level performance without sacrificing kitchen space. Building upon the foundation of the original Mechanika VI Slim, this model introduces a digital PID controller, offering precise temperature control and additional features for an enhanced brewing experience. Its slim profile and high-quality stainless steel construction make it a stylish and functional addition to any kitchen.
Smarter Shot Control With PID
The inclusion of a digital PID controller allows users to select from three preset temperatures (120°C, 124°C, and 128°C), ensuring optimal brewing conditions for various coffee profiles. This feature provides greater control over the extraction process, leading to more consistent and flavourful espresso shots. The PID also manages the machine's ECO mode and pre-infusion settings, offering energy efficiency and improved extraction. The digital display doubles as a shot timer, providing real-time feedback during brewing.
Efficient Heat Exchange System
Equipped with a 1.9-litre stainless steel heat exchanger boiler, the Mechanika VI Slim Digital PID enables simultaneous brewing and steaming, streamlining the coffee-making process. The E61 group head ensures thermal stability, while the vibration pump delivers consistent pressure for optimal extraction. The machine's compact design does not compromise performance, making it suitable for both espresso enthusiasts and those who enjoy milk-based drinks.
User-Friendly Design and Maintenance
The machine features ergonomic ECM portafilters with weight-balanced shapes and angled grips for comfortable handling. The 2.8-litre water tank is easily accessible via the removable cup warming tray, simplifying refills. An empty tank sensor alerts users when it's time to refill, preventing interruptions during brewing. The expansion valve is conveniently located for individual brew pressure adjustments, allowing users to fine-tune their espresso shots.
