Faema E71E

Overview

The Faema E71E is a single-group commercial espresso machine designed for low to medium volume café environments, bringing the engineering excellence of one of Italy most historic espresso brands to a compact format. Faema — founded in 1945 and now part of the Cimbali Group — invented the E61 group head in 1961, fundamentally changing espresso extraction forever, and the E71E continues that tradition of innovation. The machine features a dual boiler system with a dedicated copper brew boiler and a large 3.5-liter copper steam boiler, both independently temperature-controlled with PID precision. The pressure profiling system allows baristas to program custom pressure curves for different coffees, enabling extraction styles from traditional flat profile to long pre-infusion ramp-up profiles favored by light-roast specialty cafés. The commercial rotary pump provides quiet, consistent operation. Built to full commercial durability standards, the E71E is designed for thousands of cycles per day with components rated for years of heavy use. A color touchscreen provides access to programming, shot timers, and maintenance schedules. The plumbed-only water connection and direct drain simplify installation in commercial environments. At 55 kilograms, this is unambiguously a commercial machine. For the serious home enthusiast with space and budget, or the micro-café operator who needs Faema quality in a single-group format, the E71E is exceptional.

The Faema E71E comes equipped with PID temperature control for precise brewing, pre-infusion for even extraction, pressure profiling for advanced shot manipulation. It features a dual boiler boiler system made of copper with a 700 ml capacity. The rotary pump delivers 9.0 bars of pressure for optimal extraction.

Priced at $8,500, the Faema E71E is designed for passionate enthusiasts and semi-commercial users who accept nothing but the best. As a semi-automatic machine, it gives you control over the brewing process while handling pressure and temperature automatically.

In terms of build quality, the Faema E71E is a substantial machine, weighing in at 55.0 kg, manufactured in Italy, drawing 3500W of power. With dimensions of 530 x 590 x 540 mm (W×D×H), make sure you have adequate counter space. This machine requires direct plumbing, which provides unlimited water supply but needs professional installation.
