I tested the iconic La Pavoni Professional espresso machine – it's a treat, even for the experts

La Pavoni professional.

La Pavoni is an iconic coffee brand and just one glimpse of their espresso machine will tell you exactly why. The brand was founded back in 1095 and they've been making Italian coffee machines ever since. It's the Ferrari of espresso machines: sleek, stylish, and eye-catchingly beautiful.

Over the last year, I've tested over seventy of the best espresso machines on the market and none came close to being as beautiful as this. Whilst the luxurious appearance has close to universal appeal, it's worth noting that this is a manual espresso machine. These machines are designed for baristas, passionate coffee makers, and those who want to deep-dive into the scientific process of making coffee. Kitted out with all the bells and whistles, this polished stainless steel machine can achieve incredible coffee, all by hand.
