Saeco Royal Professional Semi-Commercial Automatic Espresso & Coffee Center with a built-in automatic milk frother!

The Saeco Royal Professional is an economical, compact Super Automatic espresso/cappuccino machine for home, office and food service operations. Unlike the Royal Professional 220-volt version, the Royal Professional 110/120-volt version can only brew espresso or steam milk individually. However, thanks to its unique heat exchange system, it can switch to either function within 10 seconds (compared to 45 seconds on all other 110-volt Super Automatic espresso machines on the market. The 110/120-volt version is nice because it can be located in any room where a 110-volt wall outlet is (220-volt outlets are less common and are usually more expensive to install).

The Royal Professional features a simple control panel with easy to use buttons and an alphanumeric digital display. Simply press the coffee button and the machine automatically grinds your coffee beans then dispenses freshly brewed, rich and favorful coffee into your cup. In addition, it also incorporates an exclusive automatic milk frothing system that converts milk to rich milk froth and lightly dispenses it over a latte or cappuccino!

The Royal Professional allows you to choose the volume and strength of your coffee by simply pushing the volume buttons on the control panel. After brewing your coffee, the machine automatically dumps the spent coffee grounds into an internal waste box. This machine incorporates many features of much larger automatic commercial espresso machines for less money, and its compact size makes it ideal for small volume use. It easily fits into small break rooms or kitchens.

Fully Automatic Espresso & Coffee Brewing - Simply press the coffee brew button and let the machine do the rest. Gone are the days of having to grind your own coffee, tamp it, brew it, and clean the mess after you are finished. Thanks to the hands free brewing system, all you have to do is press a button to get your coffee. The Royal Professional grinds, tamps, brews and cleans...in less than 30 seconds! No more messy cleanup.

Automatic Milk Frothing System - This system eliminates the need to steam milk the traditional way and there is no need to master the technique of frothing milk. No mess, no waste! At the push of a button, the Royal Pro has an automatic milk frothing system that instantly heats and froths milk in addition to having a standard milk steaming nozzle. The frothing system can be operated while brewing is in progress. Simply press a button for instant milk froth!

Digital Function Screen - The digital display shows the various machine functions and the status of the machine. It indicates when you are out of water or beans, when machine needs cleaning, and more. From the screen you can program the Royal Professional for various cup sizes, water temperature, and control other functions as well.

Customizable Brewing Temperature - The Royal Professional allows you to determine the brewing temperature of your coffee from mild, hot, and very hot. The digital display will indicate the brewing temperature.

Count The Cups! - The Royal Professional keeps track of the number of cups of coffee the machine has made. This is useful to determine when service should be performed.

3 Preset Cup Size Buttons - Select the desired amount of espresso you wish to brew. Just press the single cup button to make a "short" espresso, the double cup button to make a "double" espresso, or the triple cup button to make a "triple" This feature allows you to press a button and walk away. The machine will automatically stop when the correct amount of espresso is brewed.

Variable Brew Volume. Your Coffee Your Way! - You can tell the machine how much coffee is to be brewed. You can use the three factory preset cup sizes or program the machine to make any cup size you want. When you press the brew button, the machine will automatically brew the correct amount of coffee each time. You can program the machine to make the same cup volumes every time with cup sizes up to 8 ounces with varying strengths.

Make Espresso or Cafe Crème - This machine is not only capable of brewing espresso, but it can also produce a popular drink called cafe crème (also known as crema coffee). This coffee is brewed in the same manner as espresso. However, where espresso is brewed relatively slow (about 15-20 seconds for 1.5 ounces), cafe crème is brewed at a faster rate. Espresso brews slower because the coffee grounds are required to be very fine which restricts the water flow through the grounds. This helps give espresso its intense flavor and strength.

Bypass Doser For Pre-Ground Coffee - This special feature allows the user to bypass the coffee grinder and dump pre-ground coffee into the machine. This is great if you wish to use a coffee that differs from the beans already in the machine. For example, if there is someone in the crowd who wants a decaffeinated espresso but there is only caffeinated espresso beans in the machine, simply pour pre-ground decaffeinated coffee into the bypass doser and the machine will do the rest! After brewing the pre-ground coffee the machine will reset itself to use the beans in the machine. You can use any type of pre-ground coffee for this procedure.

Opti-Dose System - This allows you to choose from 6 to 9 grams for each of the three coffee amount presets. This allows you to determine the strength of the coffee despite the size of the cup for any kind of coffee - from small to large cups.

Heavy Duty Heating System - The boiler is powered by 1250 watts allowing for continuous use for large numbers of servings in short periods of time making the Royal Professional ideal for home, office, or small commercial settings.

Milk Steaming Arm & Hot Water Dispenser - Heating and frothing milk for lattes and cappuccino is easy thanks to the powerful steaming arm. Virtually unlimited steam capacity makes large steaming jobs a snap because unlike many conventional espresso machines, the Royal Professional continually replenishes spent steam.

A Powerful Pump Insures Perfect Coffee Extraction - The on board pressure pump produces a maximum pressure of 15 bars.

Brew System With Special Pre-infusion Cycle - The Royal Professional uses an advanced automatic brew system. As the heart of the automatic espresso machine it excepts freshly ground coffee from the built-in coffee grinder. It tamps the coffee perfectly, pre-soaks the grounds with a special "pre-infusion" step, brews the coffee, and then dumps the used coffee grounds into the internal dump box. Once the brewing cycle has been completed, it resets itself for the next cup of coffee.

Professional Quality Burr Grinder - A professional quality conical type burr grinder is built in. When the brew button is pushed, the grinder automatically begins grinding the exact amount of coffee beans based on the amount of coffee the machine is going to brew.

82 oz Built-in Water Tank - The Royal Professional makes it easy to refill the water tank by allowing you to add water while it's still on the machine or by removing it and filling it at the water tap. The tank has an easy grip handle making removal easy. Clear tinted ABS plastic gives you an indication of the amount of water remaining.

Coffee Bean Storage Hopper - The built-in coffee bean hopper holds 10.6 oz of coffee beans. The hopper has a lid to help keep the coffee beans fresh.

Internal Dump Box For Used Coffee Grounds - The internal dump box catches all of the spent coffee grounds left over from the brewing process. Its large capacity will hold up to 40 spent coffee portions. It removes for disposal and easy cleaning.

Adjustable Coffee Dispensing Nozzle - Everything from small 2 oz. espresso cups up to large coffee cups can easily fit under the adjustable coffee dispensing nozzle. It moves up or down to accept many cup sizes and can be moved during the brewing process.

Easy Access Control Panel - All the controls are located in one convenient place on the front of the machine. They are laid out to be easy to understand and use.

Empty - Drip Tray Indicator - An indicator located on the drip tray tells you when the drip tray is full and needs to be emptied.

Heated Cup Stacking Surface - A convenient cup stacking surface is located on top of the machine made of non-stick metal. The heating surface can be controlled allowing you to turn it on or off. Keeping your espresso cups warm is essential for excellent espresso!

Swivel Base - The bottom of the machine is equipped with a swivel base that allows you to turn the machine for easy access to the sides and back. This makes cleaning and service easier.

Special Services - The Royal Professional 110-volt model requires no special services to be added for operation such as plumbing for water or waste, or special electrical outlets. (This differs from the 220 volt version which does require a special 220-volt electrical outlet.)
