The Pasquini Livia 90
Automatic
combines excellent design, sturdy construction and a mix of traditional
and modern features. It is
designed
for the home, office or restaurant/café setting. The
Semiautomatic requires the barista to monitor the flow of
brew while the Automatic model provides
push button control so that your espresso can be brewed and poured
while you are doing something else. The Livia 90 also carries
a NSF Sanitation Certification, often required for professional
use.
Simple Semi-automatic Controls and Indicator Lights
Heavy-duty rocker switches and two attractive indictor lights are
located on the front of the machine. One flip of a switch gives you the
green light and the power is on. The orange light lets you
know the boiler is heating. In addition a pressure gauge, just below
the control panel signals when optimum pressure for brewing has been
reached. A gauge on the front of the machine monitors the pressure in
the boiler and indicates when the machine is at the optimum pressure
for brewing espresso or frothing milk.
Frothing Milk & Dispensing Hot Water
The Livia 90 provides great steamed milk, without waiting for the
brewing cycle to finis (two tips to choose from, a more traditional
commercial tip of stainless steel and a second tip made of Teflon). The
knob located on the right turns on hot water for tea, hot
chocolate, cup warming, or adding a splash of hot water to an espresso
for a Café Americano.
Rugged Portafilter
Heavy-duty, hard working portafilter is made of chrome plated, cast
brass.
3.5 Liter Water Tank
The large capacity, fully removable water tank makes volume coffee
production easy for coffee bars or restaurants. The tank can
be filled while it is operating or pulled out and taken to a faucet. (
built-in particulate filter to stop damaging bits from going through
the system)
Brawny Pump System
This powerful pump provides steady, continuous pressure to produce full
flavor extraction and a thick espresso crema.
Resilient Electrical System
Tailored for heavy use, the Livia 90 can be left on all day, due to its
power supply and stable electrical system. The system heats up the
boiler in less than 8 minutes from morning’s first power-up
and then it’s good to go all day long.
Removable Cup Tray, Drip Pan and Cup Warming
Both the polished steel cup tray and the sturdy plastic drip tray are
easy to remove and clean.
1.5 Liter 1200 Watt Copper & Brass Boiler
One of the biggest boilers for a machine this size = rapid heating and
recovery. To insure long life and protection against over heating and
burnout, the boiler is equipped with a safety feature 'Auto-Refill'
which automatically adds more water when needed or shuts the machine
off if water tank is empty + an over pressure relief
