Profitec Pro 700 Flow Control Overview
Designed by Profitec in collaboration with Whole Latte Love, the Profitec Pro 700 Flow Control is a response to the growing interest in manual flow profiling among home espresso enthusiasts. Profitec's signature Pro 700 dual boiler espresso machine has been upgraded with a custom flow profiling device and stainless steel mushroom which replaces the traditional mushroom found in E61 groups. The remainder of the machine is untouched, featuring the 2019 Pro 700's updated pressure gauges, steam and hot water knobs, and other subtle branded accents.
Features and Performance
Inside the machine, you’ll find the internal components to be incredibly well-organized, which is an often underappreciated touch that you don’t see in many other machines. Copper coils and water lines trace from one brass fitting to the next. Even the more delicate electronics are shielded from any humidity, neatly tucked away to one side of the machine.
The Fast Heat Up is a unique heating cycle that overheats the boiler so that it reaches brew temperatures even faster. After a cooling flush, the super-hot water brings the group head and portafilter to temperature which helps to achieve optimal temperature stability.
All of this speaks to Profitec’s standards for quality engineering. As they like to say, “We endeavor to bridge the gap between tried and true professional technology and state-of-the-art engineering.”
Why You Should Get It
With the flow control knob, you can adjust the valve in the E61 group, allowing you to Operation is as simple as lifting the lever and watching the automatic shot timer on the PID. The latest upgrade to the PID delivers on best-in-class steam power hissing out at 2 bar. Temperatures are stable to the point of unwavering, opening the door to exquisite shots that we at the office have always enjoyed.
Consider the Profitec Pro 700 if you're an entertainer or a home barista that wants top quality drinks and a machine that will last.
