WMF Perfection 780

Overview

The WMF Perfection 780 builds upon the 680 foundation by expanding drink variety and adding a dual-hopper bean system — a feature that WMF implements with characteristic German precision. Two separate bean containers with independent grind settings let you switch between a bold espresso roast and a lighter single-origin without any adjustment needed. The machine remembers which hopper to use for each drink profile, creating a seamless multi-bean workflow. The flat steel burr grinder shared with the 680 delivers superior particle uniformity, and the 780 adds additional grind settings for finer control. The touchscreen interface is larger and more responsive than the 680, presenting a wider drink menu that includes specialty options like espresso macchiato and flat white alongside traditional offerings. The integrated milk system creates reliable microfoam with adjustable density settings for different drink styles. WMF aromatic system maintains optimal brewing temperature throughout extraction, and a pre-wetting function enhances flavor development before full pressure is applied. User profiles allow multiple household members to store their preferences, and the machine greets each user with their favorite drink ready to prepare at a single touch. Professional-grade build quality, quiet operation, and comprehensive automatic cleaning programs make the 780 a compelling choice for discerning home users who want commercial reliability.

The WMF Perfection 780 comes equipped with PID temperature control for precise brewing, pre-infusion for even extraction. It features a thermoblock boiler system made of stainless steel. The vibratory pump delivers 15.0 bars of pressure for optimal extraction.

Priced at $1,400, the WMF Perfection 780 is designed for serious home baristas who want café-quality espresso. As a super-automatic machine, it handles everything from grinding to extraction at the touch of a button — perfect for convenience without sacrificing quality.

In terms of build quality, the WMF Perfection 780 is a substantial machine, weighing in at 10.3 kg, manufactured in Germany, drawing 1550W of power. With dimensions of 282 x 405 x 374 mm (W×D×H), make sure you have adequate counter space. The built-in water reservoir holds 1800 ml, making it easy to set up anywhere in your kitchen.
