Used Kees Van Der Westen Mirage Triplette 3 Group – Bastone Volumetric Edition

Since 1984, Kees Van Der Westen has been a global leader in high-end espresso machine design, renowned for blending industrial aesthetics with precision engineering. The Mirage Triplette Bastone Volumetric represents a perfect hybrid of tactile control and modern automation. Unlike standard models that use push-button pads, this edition features the “Bastone” (lever) system, which gives baristas the classic feel of manual activation while maintaining the consistency of volumetric programming.

Built around a highly optimized thermo-syphon system, the Mirage Triplette is a commercial powerhouse. Its massive boiler provides an almost inexhaustible supply of steam, making it an ideal choice for high-volume specialty coffee bars. The Bastone levers are programmable for two volumetric doses per group, plus a manual continuous flow via a pushbutton, ensuring every shot meets exact standards.

Key Features:

• Bastone Lever Activation: Custom “flick-levers” provide a tactile, engaging experience for the barista, offering two programmable volumes and a manual bypass.

• Volumetric Consistency: Combines the “theatre” of lever-style machines with the precision of automatic water measurement.

• Thermo-Syphon System: An updated E61-style system with individual heat exchangers for each group, providing meticulous temperature stability and natural pre-infusion.

• Massive Boiler Capacity: Features a 19L to 22L copper boiler (depending on the specific production year) to ensure you never run out of steam during peak rushes.

• PID Temperature Control: Digital PID allows for precise management of the boiler temperature, adjustable via an external display.

• Dual Steam Wands: High-power stainless steel wands for rapid milk texturing.

• Industrial Design: Rugged stainless steel frame and body panels, often finished in engine-turned steel or crackle black.

Condition: This is a used item. It may show signs of wear consistent with high-volume commercial use, such as surface scratches on the stainless steel, minor patina on the levers, or wear on the drip tray. All internal components have been professionally inspected and bench-tested for functionality.
