Who Should Buy The Nuova Simonelli Appia II Compact?
Small to Medium Coffee Shops
Creating minimal impact on space consumption, the Nuova Simonelli
Appia II Compact gives cafe owners with limited counter space the perfect solution.
Measuring only 21 inches high, 22 inches wide, and 22 inches long, it’s a powerful machine for cafes with continuous espresso drink orders to fill but little room to spare.
Meanwhile, the features are top-notch: raised group heads, cool-touch wands, soft infusion, automated cleanings, and more.
Small to Medium Restaurants
Restaurants are often searching for room for all the food and beverage service items and equipment as it is.
Since it’s so economical on space usage, the Appia II Compact can be tucked into a variety of locations as needed in a busy restaurant.
Offering superior espresso drinks, the Appia II Compact is every bit as robust as the other Appia II models, creating deluxe cappuccinos your customers will remember.
Small to Medium Offices
The Appia II Compact is ideal in an office providing delicious espresso drinks to a small to medium staff.
This machine is small but powerful, capable of producing espresso drinks as excellent as the ones from the coffee shop (this is a cafe-style commercial machine, after all).
If you’re searching for an espresso machine for the corporate office, the Appia II Compact will deliver the results you’re looking for.
Other Business with Low- to Medium-Volume Espresso Traffic
Many businesses that aren’t coffee-centric serve espresso beverages to clientele.
Whether you need a machine to make lattes for hotel guests or for spa clients, this model can provide everything you need.
It’s best for locations with low- to medium-volume espresso drink needs that don’t have the room for intrusive equipment.
Description
The Appia II Compact is the machine for demanding professionals.
Beautifully crafted espresso beverages without the bulk of a typical commercial espresso machine are now possible with the Nuova Simonelli Appia II Compact.
This machine condenses the features of the Appia II into one perfectly efficient package.
Reducing the width of this machine by nine inches allows the Appia II Compact to fit neatly and comfortably into any setting while maintaining two groups, two steam wands, and a hot water spout.
EVOLVE YOUR ESPRESSO DRINK GAME WITH THE APPIA II COMPACT.
THE APPIA II COMPACT LOSES SOME OF THE WIDTH OF THE APPIA II, BUT NONE OF THE FUNCTIONALITY.
Staying true to the Appia II’s design, the Appia II Compact offers baristas the opportunity to craft high-quality espresso with soft infusion and superior microfoam with high-performance steam mechanisms.
THE NAME NUOVA SIMONELLI IS SYNONYMOUS WITH EXCELLENCE.
Creator of World Barista Championship espresso machines, Nuova Simonelli is a brand with a stellar reputation.
Business owners can rest assured that the Appia II Compact makes quality accessible to everyone.
Key Features and What They Mean
7.5 Liter Copper Heat Exchange Boiler
With plenty of power for up to medium-volume businesses, this boiler makes simultaneous brewing and steaming for back-to-back drinks a snap. Copper, a heat conductor, lends energy efficiency as well as natural antimicrobial properties to make cleaning easier.
Easy Control Pad
The control pad comes with easy-to-operate buttons for dosing and hot water dispensing. The Volumetric model features programmable single and double volumetric buttons for automated brewing and guaranteed consistency. User-friendly manual buttons on both the Volumetric and Semiautomatic models make manually controlled extraction more intuitive.
Raised Group Heads
Fit tall cups right under the group heads of the Appia II Compact. This can improve the production pace by skipping brewing into shot glasses first. It will also help baristas to ensure a beautiful crema presentation on espresso shots and Americanos.
Cool Touch Wands
Froth milk and clean the steam wands with built-in safety precautions. Staying cool to the touch, the Appia II Compact steam wands also discourage milk from sticking, so cleaning is a much simpler task.
Push Pull Steam Triggers
Push-pull steam triggers are an ergonomic upgrade from turning steam valves. After long hours making lattes, your wrists will thank you.
Soft Infusion System
Nuova Simonelli’s soft infusion system prevents tamping errors from impacting the espresso. Espresso will be richer in flavor with perfect crema.
Automated Cleanings
As baristas know, end-of-day machine cleaning can be tedious. The auto cleaning cycles allow baristas to select the groups to be cleaned using the automated backflushing program, giving baristas more time to multitask.
Reverse Mirror
See the espresso in greater detail while it extracts in the backplate mirror on the machine. This will assist baristas in monitoring the espresso and performing quality control more effectively.
Bar Pump Gauge
Checking pressure profiles is simple with the proper gauges. The bar pump gauge shows how many bars of pressure are building during brewing, communicating to baristas vital information that informs their process.
Configurations
Volumetric Appia II Compact
The Appia II Compact Volumetric is the ideal model for business owners scouting out machines that deliver nothing but amazingly consistent coffee.
Operation is easy: Program your desired espresso volumes and then pull shots at the specified volumes all day long just by pushing a button.
This drastically reduces the risk or extraction errors and variability of drink quality from barista to barista.
Making this machine even more dynamic, there is a manual button included to allow instant customization of any espresso.
Baristas of any skill level can operate this machine. It’s so simple that there is no longer any need to stand at the machine and wait for every shot to pour, giving baristas the opportunity to attend to other tasks.
Whether that means getting more face time with customers and growing your local customer base or starting on other drink orders, business owners benefit from the Volumetric’s streamlined approach to drink making.
Options
Smart Wand Options
We offer the Auto-Steam Wand as an optional upgrade (on the Volumetric model only).
Select Volumetric with Autosteam above to order your machine with this upgrade.
AUTO-STEAM WAND
The Auto-Steam Wand will replace one manual steam handle with a button.
The advantage of Auto-Steam is that it requires no input from the barista. It will texture the milk perfectly with automated technology.
Here’s how it works: The barista places the wand in the pitcher of milk, and the Auto-Steam Wand takes care of the rest.
Pod Kit Adapter
The Appia II Compact supports a standard pod kit adapter.
We will install these left to right, unless a particular head is specified in the comment section while checking out.
They can also be moved by the user with a screwdriver.
Color Options
The Appia II Compact comes in the default color Black unless otherwise specified above.
You can select Black, White, or Red upon purchase. These colors are available free of charge (see them below).
If you would like your Appia II Compact in a custom color, please contact us directly.
