At a glance:

This unique gem is not only beautiful, but makes very good espresso and also excellent milk foam. The Microcasa Semiautomatica is a sophisticated two-circuit machine with an electrically heated brew group and vibration pump. Components such as the boiler and water tank, which in other machines are moved inside by a housing, have been thoroughly designed by Elektra and left as the machine body. Like all dual-circuit machines, the machine is equally suitable for espresso and cappuccino drinkers.

In everyday use:

Bellissima, this machine is extravagant. Before using it for the first time, it is important to follow the instructions for use, otherwise the overheating protection will trigger and paralyse the machine. Once this has been successfully achieved, the machine is ready to produce its first espresso after 20 minutes. The filter holder is well-balanced in the hand and goes willingly into the brewing group, press the brewing switch at the foot of the machine and then be amazed at how finely the espresso flows into the cup with a good crema. Now froth up some milk for a cappuccino. The very small, fine steam tap surprises with powerful, very dry steam and an easy rotation for rolling the milk at the end. There is nothing to criticise about the result. The technicians at Elektra really know their stuff, thanks to decades of experience in the bar business. You can see that in this household espresso machine. It doesn't just want to be beautiful, it also wants to work, and it does that really well. The machine is deliberately delivered without a blind sieve. Please do not backwash the machine; coffee fat solvent can damage the beautiful surface. For cleaning, please remove the shower sieve.
