Profitec Pro 600 Dual Boiler 0.75L + 1L mid-July

Just remember though, that this is a fairly meaningless specification on it's own. Yes, it's 2 bar, but the boiler is very small at 1 litre. This means the pressure falls away very rapidly as soon as you release steam. It's not going to steam as well as the machines with 2+ litre boilers

True in some respects, but if the water level, element rating and PID Control are optimised as a system to maintain steam production then this won't be noticeable with normal usage...

The 2bar steam pressure is also better than most other DB machines.

With the various deals out there on Hx machines, the Profitec Pro 600 may struggle for traction in the marketplace though at the price point of approx. $3400. I suppose time will tell.

I believe that it would be taking sales away from the Pro 700/ECM Synchronika type machines, as this does pretty much the same thing at a much cheaper price. The 2bar steam pressure is also better than most other DB machines.

A look at these being assembled in Milan and features explained.

I imagine that the October 2018 delivery date mentioned in the video is for the 110V version destined for the US (?).

These machines are out there now and available for purchase. They sound ideal for the lower volume user who doesn't require a large dual boiler with their larger steam boilers. Seems to sit in the higher end Hx machine area of the market but satisfies the additional requirement of more precise PID control of brew water temperature in the dedicated 750ml brew boiler as well as individual PID temp control of the separate 1L steam boiler.

I quite like the shape and position of the steam/hot water wands.

Noticed this listed on Site Sponsor Jetblack's web-site as landing in mid-July with their best guess price of $3499.

Specs look good. Have to wait for final pricing which could determine level of interest I guess.

Same size as Profitec 500 but a Dual-Boiler - 0.75L SS Brew boiler + 1.0L SS steam/hot water boiler both with 1000W SS heating elements and individual temp control.
