Heat Exchanger
The Pro 500 PID is equipped with a 1400 W stainless steel boiler with a capacity of 2 L. As a heat exchanger machine, you can expect to brew and steam without waiting, or even at the same time.
Profitec is a brand about tremendous performance and distinguished build quality, without compromising on simplicity. These machines boast powerful commercial-grade parts, professional aesthetics, and still manage to be easy-to-use. The Pro 500 PID follows suit, packing a level of performance we’ve seen in much more expensive machines into a model that can still fit under our cabinets.
With the Pro 500 PID, you'll get a machine that brews with a 2L stainless steel boiler and powerful 1400W heating element, complimented by the iconic E61 brew group. However, the PID is the real showstopper here. In combination with the engineered thermosyphon system in the E61 group, the Pro 500 PID lends a level of temperature stability previously unheard of in a heat exchanger espresso machine. The need for cooling flushes is eliminated, removing a considerable limitation from this class of machine.
All in all, the Pro 500 PID sets itself apart as a superior machine with the commercial edge necessary to measure up against machines with a much greater asking price.

Control boiler temperature for searching out those elusive coffee flavors and get the best out of your coffee.The PID also eliminates the need for a pressurestat, increasing reliability.
The E61 grouphead is constantly heated with water from the thermosyphon system for temperature stability. It also features a pre-infusion cylinder to aid in the extraction process.
The machine is housed in mirror-finished, stainless steel panels. It rests on a one-piece internal steel frame, which protects it from bending or bowing during shipping or as the result of continuous use.
