Overview
The Bezzera BZ10 is a heat exchanger E61 machine from one of the most historically significant names in espresso — Bezzera has been building coffee machines since 1901 and holds a legitimate claim as a founding pioneer of espresso technology. The BZ10 features a 1.5-liter copper boiler with heat exchanger system and the classic E61 group head, delivering the thermal stability and natural pre-infusion that define the prosumer experience. The copper boiler provides excellent heat retention and strong steam performance for milk-based drinks. The E61 group head with its mushroom lever operates the thermosiphon and pre-infusion system that has been the industry standard for over six decades. Build quality reflects over a century of Italian espresso machine manufacturing expertise, with quality materials and attention to detail throughout. The vibratory pump provides reliable pressure, and the generous reservoir minimizes refill interruptions. The BZ10 occupies an interesting position — a heritage brand offering competitive features at a fair price. For the barista who appreciates the history behind their machine, Bezzera connects them directly to the origins of espresso culture.
The Bezzera BZ10 comes equipped with pre-infusion for even extraction. It features a heat exchanger boiler system made of copper with a 1500 ml capacity. The vibratory pump delivers 9.0 bars of pressure for optimal extraction.
Priced at $1,499, the Bezzera BZ10 is designed for serious home baristas who want café-quality espresso. The heat exchanger design provides steam-on-demand while maintaining brew temperature stability — a great middle ground between single and dual boiler machines.
In terms of build quality, the Bezzera BZ10 is a substantial machine, weighing in at 24.0 kg, manufactured in Italy, drawing 1200W of power. With dimensions of 300 x 460 x 400 mm (W×D×H), make sure you have adequate counter space. The built-in water reservoir holds 2500 ml, making it easy to set up anywhere in your kitchen.
