The Izzo Alex is still one of the only "Prosuma" machines with a rotary pump and a reservoir tank with no need to plumb in. The Alex has the usual Italian design features and looks but what sets it apart is: • Rotary Pump • Large 2 litre Boiler • 1500 watt element

These extra features will put the Alex in exactly the same category as a professional machine, the rotary pump gives more controlled power and reliability, the larger boiler as well as extra capacity ensures far better pressure stability, and the larger heating element will ensure that all this extra capacity has extra performance and quicker recovery time This is a serious machine for people who are serious about making perfect coffee Like most commercial machines a large boiler with a heat exchanger can produce continuous steam.

The heat exchanger allows you to both draw espresso shots and use steam at any time, without "preparing" the machine first (like most domestic espresso machines), by switching it into steam mode. A hot water tap allows you to make tea and other hot drinks at any time.

It has a solid construction with quality heavy-gauge polished stainless steel panels, metal components throughout and features a professional E61 group head (originally developed by Faema). Water circulates through the group head and the heat exchanger (thermosyphon), the metal of the group head (8lbs of solid brass with chrome plating) acts as a heat sink to stabilise the water temperature as you draw your espresso.
