Profitec Pro 800

Overview

The Profitec Pro 800 is a spring lever machine with a dual boiler system — a rare combination that provides lever extraction character with the convenience of independent steam power. The spring-loaded lever creates a natural declining pressure profile that begins at approximately 8-9 bar and gradually decreases to 2-3 bar as the spring extends. This pressure curve produces shots with remarkable body and sweetness that pump machines cannot easily replicate. The 500ml brew boiler with PID control ensures precise water temperature at the group. The dedicated 2-liter steam boiler provides continuous steam without affecting brew temperature — a significant advantage over single-boiler lever machines that require temperature surfing. The E61-compatible lever group head accepts standard 58mm baskets and accessories. Profitec's German manufacturing ensures precise mechanical tolerances throughout the lever mechanism. The Pro 800 appeals to experienced baristas who appreciate lever character but refuse to compromise on workflow convenience for milk drinks.

The Profitec Pro 800 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 stainless steel with a 500 ml capacity. The manual lever pump delivers consistent pressure for optimal extraction.

Priced at $3,799, the Profitec Pro 800 is designed for passionate enthusiasts and semi-commercial users who accept nothing but the best. As a lever machine, it offers a hands-on, tactile brewing experience that many espresso purists find deeply satisfying.

In terms of build quality, the Profitec Pro 800 is a substantial machine, weighing in at 30.0 kg, manufactured in Germany, drawing 1800W of power. With dimensions of 350 x 500 x 430 mm (W×D×H), make sure you have adequate counter space. It offers both reservoir and direct plumbing options for maximum flexibility.
