The Italians have a word for it - Perfetto.In creating the EQ7, we've not only made a quantum leap in the area of fully automatic espresso machines, we have practically reinvented the art of espresso making. We set ourselves a question: how do you create the perfect espresso? To find the solution, we picked over every last detail of the espresso making process. Did we succeed? With the EQ7 we have created a completely new espresso world, closing the circle from bean to cup to provide the ultimate flavour experience. In the EQ7, you have at your fingertips not only the fastest and most efficient appliance of its kind, but also a machine where the technology is more than just brand new; it's revolutionary.

Meet the barista in your kitchen...Perfect flavour Astonishingly, there are 800 sub-flavours in a cup of espresso, and for it to achieve perfection they must be allowed to unfold fully. For this to happen, the water must be sustained at the ideal temperature for 30 seconds during the brewing process. With our new Senso Flow System, this is now possible, giving you perfect flavour every time and anytime. And with minimal heat-up time and minimum standby power, it's also a unique, energy saving feature. Perfect design Espresso connoisseurs who are enthralled by the entire espresso-making process will love the transparency and intuitive operation of the EQ7. As well as drawing attention to the bean container and the water tank, an innovative lighting concept highlights the individual stages of the entire process. And the outstanding 360-degree design means it works perfectly as a freestanding unit. Perfect simplicity A fine milky foam, as frothy as lightly whipped cream: that's the basis of the ultimate cappuccino. The ingenious swivel arm is simplicity itself to use and an optimised swirling process inside the milk nozzle produces the ultimate in fine, milky foam for the perfect result every time. We also brought a lot of in-depth thinking to the subject of milk. The result - completely new product ergonomics and a totally independent milk system separate from the coffee part. Perfect crema A golden-brown, creamy and long-lasting crema is the trademark of a really good espresso. To achieve this a constant pressure is key in extracting the maximum flavour from the beans. Preparing espresso requires the talents and instinct of a first class barista. With the EQ7, we have built those skills into the very fabric of the machine. The 'aroma pressure system' automatically achieves the ideal, continuous pressure and therefore the perfect brewing result, for every single cup. The convex design of the tamper allows even more flavour to be released from the ground coffee. So no matter how much coffee you use, you'll always end up with the perfect crema. Automatically. 128129Small appliances
