What are ESE espresso coffee pods?
Coffee pods are a single-serve system for producing espresso coffee. A coffee pod is a compressed disc of coffee that is the exact volume and consistency for making one shot of espresso. Coffee pods are a commercial quality product able to be used in both home and office espresso machines, as well as cafes. Typically each pod is individually sealed to maintain freshness. Using a coffee pod is simple, just open the packet and place the coffee pod into your coffee pod machine. Brew your espresso and discard the used pod in the organic waste as you would with ground coffee.

Does it produce good steam power for frothing milk?
Tonino Lamborghini features a proper boiler made from brass for superior steam production. We recommend steaming milk with the froth assister attachment removed. Good steam power combined with a single steam hole tip makes it possible to achieve a nice fine velvety microfoam for adding to your espresso to produce your favourite milk based specialty coffees.

How it works
The Tonino Lamborghini is constructed around a 250ml brass boiler with vertically mounted heating element. A vibration pump operated by switch is used to pump fresh water from the reservoir into the boiler. For steaming milk the boiler heats water to over 100 degrees, the steam wand is connected to the boiler through a brass steam valve, when the valve is opened steam from the top of the boiler is released. As more and more steam is drawn off, the element heats the water to produce more steam giving the unit superior steam capacity. For making espresso the boiler maintains the water temperature below 95 degrees. When the pump is activated fresh water is pumped into the boiler forcing heated water out of the boiler into the brewing group where it is pumped through the coffee pod to produce espresso. The handle, styled like a manual gear shifter, is used to raise and lower the coffee pod holder locking in the espresso pod for each extraction.
