Illy X1 Anniversary ESE & Ground Black espresso machine
An iconic espresso machine revisited
The manual espresso machine Illy X1 Anniversary ESE & Ground black was designed by Luca Trazzi as a tribute to the beautiful Italian espresso machines of the 1960s.
Elegant and compact, theIlly Anniversary ESE & Ground is the ideal machine for coffee lovers who are starting out in the world of espresso.
Very versatile, it allows you to use ground coffee as well as compostable ESE pods.
The Illy Anniversary ESE & Ground espresso machine features a powerful thermoblock for very fast heating time and anECO mode to reduce your energy consumption and limit the waiting time between each extraction.
This machine wasmanufactured in Europe with materials chosen for their durability (including a stainless-steel body) and fully recyclable packaging.
A simple and versatile Illy espresso machine
The Illy Anniversary ESE & Ground espresso machine is equipped with a stainless-steel brew group for good thermal stability.
Its portafilter has an internal system to promote a beautiful crema and do the same job as a pressurized filter. So you don’t need a high-end grinder to use freshly ground coffee.
It comes with 2 filters: a single-cup dual-function filter for ground coffee or ESE pods, a two-cup filter (to make 2 espressos or a double in one cup, for example).
The Illy Anniversary ESE & Ground features aviation-style lever buttons to choose your coffee (one or two cups) and also to dispensehot water if you want to lengthen your coffee.
With theprogrammable volume function, you can easily save your preferred cup size.
Create beautiful milk foams thanks to theassisted steam wand controlled by a knob on the side.
Its small 1-liter water tank is located at the back of the machine.
With the simplified instructions provided in the machine’s pack, your first espresso with the Illy Anniversary ESE & Ground will be child’s play!
