Back in our range at last…. and at a NEW LOW Price Was £699 Now £629
Back in our range at last…. After successful negotiations at the recent Host exhibition in Milan we are please to announce the arrival of this fabulous machine and at a NEW LOW Price This is the machine that launched the Bellabarista concept:- “Professional coffee equipment for the home” and still a firm favourite of our founder.

Now improved with the addition of an overtemp thermal circuit, and low water cut off sensor

The machines use the lever method of pressurising the coffee, this is the system preferred by the purist coffee bars in Italy. This simple manual system also eliminates the need for internal pumps so often the limitation in domestic machines. The Ponte Vecchio machines from Bella Barista will deliver cup after cup of delicious coffee and plenty of steam to froth the milk

The Ponte Vecchio design has been heavily influenced by the requirement to be simple to use, simple to maintain and have good reliability The have produced a good quality and good value for money spring lever espresso machine.

The spring lever takes the guess work out of how long and how hard to pull, which leaves you free to concentrate on the “art” out of making the coffee.

It can be left on for extended periods of time and doesn’t overheat, making it a truly realistic proposition for everyday and all day use in even the busiest household.

Its light weight makes it easy to move from room to room and it makes an impressive experience to the coffee served after any dinner party with friends It looks good, functions impeccably and makes easy work of the entire range of gourmet coffee drinks. Plentiful amounts of hot water & steam are always available for tea, other hot drinks, or foaming milk for that creamy hot chocolate or cappuccino. The large boiler allows you to draw espresso shots and use steam at any time, without "preparing" the machine first (e.g. switching into steam mode).
