Cimbali has unveiled its new M100 Attiva range of professional coffee machines. The range includes three variants each featuring a different thermal system, while all three machines allow baristas to customise beverages to varying extents.
The release of three variants – the M100 Attiva HDA, Attiva GTA and Attiva TDA – intends to provide a solution to baristas of varying skill levels, and the focus on customisation meets the growing trends for temperature and brew control.
Firstly, the M100 Attiva HDA features Cimbali’s patented HD system, which reportedly sets a personalised pressure profile for each group on the coffee machine. Cimbali claims this optimises the sensory profile of the extracted coffee, and each group also benefits from individual temperature control as they utilise multi boiler technology.
Meanwhile, the Attiva GTA also allows customisation of water temperature, but adds an option to regulate the volume of water flow at the infusion stage. Cimbali claims that this ensures an optimum flavour profile for both espresso and longer drinks such as lattes and mochas.
Finally, the Attiva TDA is the entry-level model in the range, and uses La Cimbali’s Thermodrive technology to control the temperature of each drink selection, and this extends to the infusion stage of the brew cycle for greater flexibility.
Each machine in the range also features a lower profile design to encourage interaction between the barista and customer, intended to elevate the coffee experience for customers and employees.
Daniel Clarke, managing director of La Cimbali, said: “The ability to control the brew temperature for each group, combined with pressure profiling capabilities allows the barista to create unique, signature recipes and flavour profiles from the same coffee blend.
“A creative barista can really experiment with different coffees, bringing out subtleties in flavour, taste and aroma worthy of a speciality menu and present something that customers can get excited about.”
