Victoria Arduino VA 388 Black Eagle T3 Volumetric – 3 Group

VA388 Black Eagle
is the espresso machine for all those who dedicate their lives to
coffee; who study, research and experiment every day to transfer a real coffee experience to the cup. This is the official espresso machine for the World Barista Championship 2015 to 2017

Solid, consistent and precise. The new VA388 Black Eagle is much more than an espresso machine; it is an enhancement of each coffee blend and an expression of every barista.

T3 Technology
In a professional coffee machine, temperature plays an extremely
important role, as it strongly influences the quality of the espresso. A
stable temperature provides an excellent and repeatable result.
But how? Again, through studies, research and experimentation, as well
as working with the best baristas, we managed to find a solution that
provides for the control of every single parameter. Thus was born T3, a
technology that allows the barista to set three temperatures: for the
brewing group, the water infusion and the steam.
What do you get? Control of the water supplys thermal accuracy that results in temperature stability
and ultimately in a perfect espresso. This also comes about due to an
electronic system, with probes for temperature, pressure and PID, which
manages each variable.

Cool Touch Wand
Thermal insulation guarantees the baristas safety; and not only that,
but better and easier cleaning and therefore greater hygiene. The new
Cool-Touch thermally insulated wand avoids annoying burns and can
speed up cleaning the espresso machine.

TFT Display
The VA388 talks to the barista and shares all the information provided
by the T3 and gravimetric systems. The TFT display gives the barista
all data in real time to offer the customer the best espresso. The
display for each group shows the barista the temperatures of the steam
boilers, the coffee and the group, the delivery time and the amount of
liquid in the cup.

Push & Pull System
The barista has to work safely with a coffee machine designed to ensure
maximum comfort. An example of this increased attention to the barista
is Push & Pull, the drive system for the steam nozzle that avoids
unnecessary stress on the baristas arms. So the barista will never be
too tired to prepare another cappuccino!

A coffee machine for the specialty coffee shop, a machine that is stable, consistent and volumetric.
In the continuous search for a constant result in the cup, many
baristas have verified and demonstrated how the volumetric system allows
them to obtain a significantly higher quality repeatable product
compared to the manual system. The volumetric version of the VA388 Black Eagle addresses this need and goes beyond.
