This will increase the speed of your drink production, and it will also save time overall. The Pasquini Livia 90 Semi-Automatic Espresso Machine also has an exceptional NSF Sanitation Certification, which is often a requirement for machines that are used in the food service setting.

Simple Indicator Lights and Controls:

The Pasquini Livia 90 Semi-Automatic Espresso Machine is a pleasure to use due to its easy to read controls and simple features. It works with heavy-duty rocker switches and two indicator lights, which are conveniently located at the very front panel of the machine. All you have to do is flip the switch to turn on the green light to show that the power is on. The orange light will illuminate to tell you that the boiler is heating, and the pressure gauge is found below the control panel signals to show that the optimum brewing pressure has been reached. There is also a gauge found on the front of the machine to monitor the boiler pressure to show when the machine is at its optimum pressure for frothing milk or brewing espresso. This will make it much easier to adjust the boiler pressure if necessary.

Milk Frothing and Hot Water Dispensing:

The Pasquini Livia 90 Semi-Automatic Espresso Machine has amazing steaming capabilities so that you can froth your milk without having to wait for the brew cycle to complete. There is a chrome plated brass steam pipe found on the left of the machine, which will bring the steam into the frothing tip. There are two different frothing tips to choose from, one of which is a more traditional commercial style stainless steel tip and the other is a Teflon tip. The second tip is used to enhance the froth to create consistent foam, and small holes are found on either side of the tip to bring air directly into the milk. This will allow you to instantly froth professional foam for cappuccinos and lattes, and all you have to do is turn the knob on the right side of the machine to dispense hot water. This is perfect to be used for hot chocolate, instant soup, or warming a cup, and you can also use it to add hot water to espresso to create an Americano.

Heavy Duty Portafilter:

The Pasquini Livia 90 Semi-Automatic Espresso Machine has a rugged and heavy duty portafilter constructed from chrome plated and cast brass. It comes with a comfortable grip of molded plastic so that it is insulated and easy to handle while brewing.

3.5 L Water Tank:

The Pasquini Livia 90 Semi-Automatic Espresso Machine has a generous water tank of a large capacity that is easily removable for all brewing cycles. This is perfect to be used in restaurants or coffee shops since the tank doesn't need to be refilled constantly. The tank can be refilled while the machine is brewing, or it can be removed to be refilled at a faucet. The tank also has a built-in particulate filter to protect the pump and boiler from any damaged particles running through the system.

Brawny Pump System:

The Pasquini Livia 90 Semi-Automatic Espresso Machine has the fantastic feature of a strong and powerful pump to create a more authentic shot of espresso every time. This high-quality pump will offer continuous and steady pressure to create a full and even extraction with a thick, rich crema atop the espresso shot.

Dependable Electrical System:

The Pasquini Livia 90 Semi-Automatic Espresso Machine has the capability of being left on all day long due to its stable and resilient power supply and electrical system. The machine will always be ready to steam milk or brew espresso, and the boiler system can heat within eight minutes from the first time that you turn on the machine to brew all day long.

Removable Drip Pan and Cup Tray/Cup Warming Capabilities:

The sturdy plastic drip tray and polished steel cup tray are easily removable to clean for maintenance. The Pasquini Livia 90 Semi-Automatic Espresso Machine also has advanced heating capabilities so that the stainless steel warming plate can be used to keep all of the espresso cups warm on top of the espresso machine. Not only will this save space, but it will make sure that the espresso is not cooled when it is brewed into a cup.

1.5 L Copper and Brass Boiler at 1200 W:

One of the greatest features of the Pasquini Livia 90 Semi-Automatic Espresso Machine is its large boiler, which is actually the biggest boiler used for a machine of this size. This means that the Livia 90 can quickly steam and brew espresso in numerous quantities with rapid heating and recovery technologies. This will ensure durability and protection to the machine so that it does not overheat or burnout, and it also has a handy safety feature called Auto-Refill. This means that the system will monitor the boiler water level so that if it falls below a certain point, the computer system will automatically add more water to the machine. If the machine does run out of water so that the Auto-Refill cannot automatically refill the boiler, the machine will automatically be turned off to prevent overheating or damage to any of the components. There is also an over pressure relief valve, which works as a backup for the boiler pressure to keep it regulated and safe.

Durable Construction:

The Pasquini Livia 90 Semi-Automatic Espresso Machine is constructed from heavy gauge metal with an anti-rust and corrosion protected frame. The beautiful exterior housing is made from polished and stainless steel to give a professional touch to the final machine aesthetic.

Cleaning and Maintenance:

To keep the Pasquini Livia 90 Semi-Automatic Espresso Machine in the best condition at all times, it must have regular cleaning and maintenance. Mineral scale can build up inside of the machine due to the use of hard water containing minerals, which could cause damage to the machine in the long run. It is necessary to descale your espresso machine every 2 to 3 months, which will keep it running smoothly for years at a time. It is also necessary to use a "back-flush" for the espresso machine. This will remove espresso buildup inside the grouphead, which is the area where the portafilter is inserted into the machine. The Livia 90 will arrive with detailed instructions to tell you how to clean and maintain your machine on a regular basis, and we also offer technical support during business hours for detailed assistance.
