FAQ
Do Bezzera machines support PID and multi‑boiler control?
Many volumetric and premium lines include PID and multi‑boilers for stable brew temps and steam power—see each product page for specifics.
What power supply do I need?
Compact 1‑group units can be 10A; 2–3 group volumetric machines may require 20A or 415V 3‑phase. Always check the SKU specs before ordering.
Which category should I start with?
For most cafés, a 2‑group volumetric strikes the best balance of speed and consistency. Add a quality burr grinder and jug rinser to complete the setup.
