We added the Bellezza Bellona to our dual boiler line of espresso machines back in early 2023. It has attracted many potential customers with features such as its stainless steel, insulated boilers. The PID controls allows you to program preinfusion, ECO mode, and a built-in shot timer. The main feature is it’s external glass reservoir. This makes it easy to fill and monitor. The lid as also sealed to keep anything from crawling in.
