About HEAT EXCHANGER

Heat exchanger has a large boiler for both milk frothing and brewing. The upper part of the boiler is used for steam and the lower part for brewing. The advantage of the heat exchanger is that it is strong and capable of brewing several coffee drinks one after the other and is suitable for those who like to drink lattes and cappuccinos.

ESPRESSO MACHINE WITH DOUBLE BOILER

The advantage of double boilers is that you have better control over your brewing temperature thanks to the fact that you can change the temperature of each boiler separately. It gives you a good chance of getting better espresso shots compared to a heat exchanger. Just like a heat exchanger, you can both froth and brew at the same time.

FLOW-CONTROL

The longer you've been brewing espresso, you've probably come across the English term "Flow-control" or "Pressure profiling". This is the opportunity to influence the flow and pressure profile during your espresso brewing. The reason why you want to be able to influence this is to bring out unique flavors that you wouldn't get otherwise. When you have control over these two parameters, you can adapt your pressure profile to suit a specific rust profile such as dark rust, medium rust or light rust. Some espresso machines allow you to manually create different pressure profiles and the option to save them. Rocket have espresso machines where there are already ready-made pressure profiles that are adapted to certain rust profiles.

NOW IT IS POSSIBLE TO INSTALL FLOW-CONTROL

About you already own one Profitec with an E61 group or are interested because you have the opportunity to buy a Flow-control kit to be able to try experimenting with different pressure profiles without having to spend as much as an espresso machine with flow-control.
