La Pavoni Stradavari Espresso Machine Review
The La Pavoni Stradavari espresso machine is an elegant, ultra refined piece of art. It was designed to be a special model from the brand, marking 100 years of business for Pavoni. The machine comes in shiny, flawless stainless steel with either rosewood or black handles and accents. Either way, it is the perfect addition to high class kitchens where appearances matter.
Yet, the Pavoni Stradavari espresso machine isn’t all about looks. It will serve a real function in your kitchen by producing one or two cups of perfectly brewed espresso at a time, with capabilities of producing perfectly frothed cappuccino as well. You can use it to wake up in the morning, relax after a long day, or just to entertain a small group of friends after an enjoyable evening out.
With the sleek style of the Pavoni Stradavari espresso machine you will actually want to welcome others into your kitchen just so they can admire it along with you!
This is a steam pressure machine and internal thermometers ensure that the appropriate temperature is maintained at all during the brewing process.
The Pavoni Stradavari system comes in two different models: the 16 cup model and the 8 cup model. Both machines have the exact same style and color options but one will make a lot more coffee at one time than the other. The choice really comes down to the needs of your individual home since both systems are exactly the same.
The serving sizes are set at 2 ounces a piece, so if you serve larger servings than you can expect each machine to deliver fewer cups per brew.
Pavoni Stradavari Appearance
Clearly, the most impressive feature on the Pavoni Stradavari is the outer appearance. It is super sleek and looks beautiful on the countertop, which is the biggest attraction for many users. You just have to realize that it is a more basic machine than others selling in the same price range or even for less.
While the Pavoni Stradavari espresspo machine will make delicious espresso and is capable of frothing milk, it is not designed to create any other coffee treats such as cappuccino, latte, and café mocha. The design does not include any special features that make it excel at frothing, either.
Those who really enjoy the Pavoni Stradavari are those who want the elegant appearance in their kitchen and who are content with making great espresso. They don’t have a need or desire to make more elaborate drinks or can create the drinks they want with the frothing capabilities of the Pavoni Stradavari espresso machine.
Pavoni Stradavari Cons
The biggest complaints against this machine are from those who do not fully understand what they are purchasing prior to putting down their money. You have to understand that this is not a completely automated, electronic system like you can find on the market today at lower prices. The Pavoni Stradavari is a manual system that requires you to pull down a lever to deliver shots of espresso.
If you have never pulled the shots before on a machine like this, it may take some practice to get it down right. You can expect some burnt shots in the meantime but with time it becomes second nature.
If you don’t want to learn how to manually pull the shots with the Pavoni Stradavari then you may want to consider an espresso machine that is completely digitized so everything is done for you.
