Torre Smart PID (TSP)

HX espresso machines tend to overheat if left idle for five or more minutes after initial warm up has completed. Torre created the TSP to automatically lower the temperature after a certain amount of time since the last extraction, ensuring that the first shot after a long pause is within the desired temperature range. This reduces the need for lengthy cooling flushes and helps maintain consistent temperature control.

Heat Exchange System

• The Alfredo has a heat exchange design whereby there is a therm o-siphon loop – a pipe in the boiler has water that is flash heated from the water/steam in the steam boiler. Read more…
• With the Torre system, it is not necessary to do an extra flush to normalize the group temperature, as it remains stable.
• With Torre’s system, the Alfredo espresso machine never goes into over heat even after 10 extractions! Other similar machines start to overheat after 2 extractions. With their TSP system, after 10 back-to-back continuous extractions without any breaks, the temperature begins to slowly drop below average at the grouphead. So, the machine is great for very low volume commercial use, superb for small offices, and entertaining in homes. It is one of the best machines for those working from home and need to leave the machine on all day! For optimal performance, a simple 1-2 seconds flush maximum, just to clean the shower on all machines, is a basic rule for a good espresso.

Dual Gauge

• Left side measures pump pressure when pulling a shot. This is the result of the grind fineness, amount of ground espresso coffee in the basket AND the tamping pressure.
• Right side measures steaming pressure. Optimal range is between 0.8 and 1.2 bar.

Vibration Pump

• Affordable: Pumps will degrade in performance over time. Replacing a vibration pump will cost less than a rotary vane pump.
• Effective: 41 watts, rated up to 15 bar. You only need 9 bar to extract perfect espresso, and wattage has no correlation to longevity.

Extraction/Shot timer

• Convenient located for your viewing during an espresso extraction

Steam Boost

• By quickly pressing the action button, the machine goes into ”Steam boost mode” for a maximum of 120 seconds, the machine’s steam boiler goes to the maximum pressure of 2.5 bar to have a truly impressive steam performance for this category of HX machines. By quickly pressing the button before the 2 minutes are up, you manually exit the Steam Boost mode.
• Usually, after a steam boost cycle, the machine is immediately ready at the right temperature, because the cycle lasts a maximum of 2 minutes, which is not enough to upset the thermal balance of the E61 group
• Please note that if you extract 3-4 espresso shots, and between each extraction you press the Steam Boost, the water in the grouphead of the Alfredo will overheat. Thus, a cooling flush will be required. Therefore, pull the 3-4 extractions in sequence, and then follow up with one steaming session to create the frothed/steam milk for the multiple milk-added espresso-based beverages.

4 Stage Programmable Temperature Settings

• Torre Espresso has established 4 average temperature levels which correspond to the following water temperatures at the outlet of the shower with a heated filter holder: LOW 90°C MID 92°C HIGH 94°C HOT 96°C.
• Use lower settings for darker roasts, and higher settings for lighter roasts.

Pre-Infusion Programming

• Helps saturate you coffee puck for an even flow and extract maximum flavor.
• Programmable pre-infusion from 0.5 to 5 seconds.
