Kees van der Westen Spiritello
A single-group spring-lever machine for home and small bars that shrinks the Idrocompresso group of the Slim Jim onto a dual-boiler body with a 3.5 l tank or mains feed. A rotary pump supplies adjustable 1.5-4 bar pre-infusion while the lever is locked, then the spring drives extraction; shots can auto-stop by pressure or by weight with a Bluetooth scale. Both 316L boilers are PID-controlled and switchable.
