Elektra Sixties espresso machine
(Volumetric)

Machine
Description

Elektra Sixties’ clean lines and gleaming body will match almost any decor, and it’s compact size means it can fit almost anywhere. Though lower-priced, it provides excellent performance and reliability, with a larger boiler capacity than many other compact machines for powerful steam and plenty of hot water.

Sixties comes with standard Volumetric programming, which allows a barista to program 4 espresso shot volumes per group, thereby pulling shots at that exact volume every time. Shots are more consistent between users and – because the barista doesn’t have to monitor the espresso – there is more time to interact with customers or begin another order.

And Sixties comes with easy-to-use standard features like its patented steam “joysticks” that lock open with a gentle push in any direction, steam tips ideal for micro-foaming, automatic back-flushing, and much more. Comes in a highly polished Stainless Steel finish, and a limited-edition distressed brass version called “Riforma”.

2 Models Available:

Sixties 2-Group comes with two brew groups, one steam wand (with a optional second wand), and a hot water spout, but its compact design will fit in smaller spaces with very little compromise on performance.
Suitable for: low to medium volume locations, restaurants, hotels, small shops, locations with less experienced baristas, smaller equipment budgets

Sixties 1-Group is our most compact commercial espresso machine; there is no compromise on quality, but its one group, one steam wand, and hot water spout delivers lower coffee production and limited steam & boiling water.
Suitable for: low volume locations including home & office, restaurants, hotels, small shops, locations with less experienced baristas, smaller equipment budgets
