The Passionata Rossa is an elegant espresso machine that combines design with functionality. Water is sent through the ground espresso at 20 bar of pressure, which captures the bean's full aroma. You can use either ground coffee or espresso beans with this machine as well as pre-packaged coffee pads. The removable water tank holds enough for 6 cups of coffee. You can brew up to two cups at a time and the warming plate on the top of the device keeps drinks warm if need be. This machine is simple to use and easy to clean thanks to its stainless steel components. The elegant design coordinates well with any kitchen setting and will get your mouth watering for a warm espresso. An additional highlight is the steam wand that helps you make foamed milk quickly and easily – your morning cappuccino has never tasted this good!
