The Rolls Royce among espresso machines (quoted from “Der Feinschmecker” Germany’s most famous gourmet magazine

ECM Espresso Coffee Machines Manufacture is setting new standards for espresso coffee machines Since 1996, Wolfgang Hauck worked with ECM SPA in Milan, developing and marketing espresso machines of a technically superior standard for homes and offices. In 2005 Wolfgang split from ECM Spa, product development (design, layout and construction ) was moved to Germany and ECM “Espresso Coffee Machines Manufacture “ was born...

The new MECHANIKA IV sets new standards in espresso coffee machines and tops its predecessor model, the already legendary MECHANIKA/ TECHNIKA III, judged to be the world's best espresso coffee machine. The Technika has not only been called the "Rolls Royce" of filter holder machines - the jury of the noted magazine "Der Feinschmecker" also crowned it overall winner amongst espresso coffee machines. NEW FEATURES:- new desigeded water tank with adapter ( no silicon hoses are visible) - reed sensor for water shortage in the water tank. - adjustable expansion valve underneath the cups heater-tray easily to adjust - new designed ECM port filters with weight balanced - ECM group head advantage the upper part of the E61 group head is made in stainless steel (no problem descaling) - longer trip tray

The MECHANIKA IV now surpasses its own high standard: high-quality material and single components of professional and technical superiority are combined with a perfectly manufactured body in satined or polished stainless steel. The high-quality copper boiler holds approx. 2 litres, while maintaining a compact structure. The volume of the boiler allows hot water dispensing, e.g. for tea; a great product advantage. We have decided to stock just the Mechanika as the only difference between the Mechanika and Technika is a small body styling detail and we believe the extra price for the Technika is not justified We are not stocking the Profi versions as the only difference is the “Joystick” steam wand which is designed for the professional market and most home users would find this a little cumbersome for just a few seconds less time to steam , it is also difficult to use the “hand” method to judge the temperature whilst holding the joystick down. However all these models are available to special order

Thanks to the thermosyphon circulation system, only the fresh water of the water tank and not the water of the boiler is used for coffee preparation. This also allows you to prepare coffee and to dispense hot water and steam at the same time.
