The Kees Van Der Westen Spirit Triplette is widely regarded as one of the pinnacle espresso machines in the specialty coffee industry. This particular unit features the stunning Arte Veloce styled body combined with the high-performance Bastone (lever) volumetric system. Unlike most machines, the Spirit is a multi-boiler powerhouse, featuring a large dedicated steam boiler and individual boilers for each of the three group heads. This allows for unparalleled temperature precision, as each group can be set to a different temperature to suit specific coffee origins.
The Bastone levers offer the tactile engagement of a manual machine but are integrated with a volumetric system, meaning the machine will automatically stop the shot at a programmed volume. This provides the perfect balance of “theatrics” and high-volume consistency.
Key Features:
-
Multi-Boiler Technology: One massive steam boiler and three independent 1.5L saturated coffee boilers for ultimate temperature stability.
-
Bastone Volumetric Operation: Tactile “flick-levers” to start the shot, with automatic volumetric shut-off for consistency.
-
Arte Veloce Styling: Iconic, low-profile body design with high-grade polished stainless steel and exposed technical elements.
-
Saturated Group Heads: Groups are bolted directly to the coffee boilers, eliminating temperature loss during extraction.
-
PID Temperature Control: Highly precise digital controllers for every individual boiler, adjustable in 0.1°C increments.
-
Dual Step Pre-Infusion: Electronic pre-infusion system to ensure even saturation of the coffee puck before full pressure is applied.
-
Adjustable Drip Tray: Easily moved up or down to accommodate various cup heights.
Condition: This is a used item. It may show signs of wear consistent with high-end commercial use, such as light surface scratches on the polished body or minor wear on the Bastone levers. All internal mechanical and electronic components have been professionally inspected.
