Noteable Features
Extraction Time Control
Enigma machines leverage Eversys’s Extraction Time Control tech to ensure all espresso shots are pulled according to a cafe’s desired recipes and flavor profile. If the machine notices brewing variables falling outside of the set time protocols, it instantly adjusts the grind size to bring the recipe back into the correct parameters.
350 Shots Per Hour
Enigma espresso machines are equipped with internals that are ready for back-to-back espresso shots. The E’4 series can produce up to 350 espressos per hour, assuming a 23-second extraction time, or 170 hot water products per hour using the water dispenser.
E’Connect
E’Connect Telemetry technology gives coffee leaders the ability to remotely track beverage consistency, consumption, and efficiency—a valuable tool for businesses that want to carefully monitor their coffee programs. E’Connect also enables business owners to remotely change machine settings and brew recipes for easy day-to-day management.
Self-Service Modifications
Enigma espresso machines can be outfitted to provide self-service capabilities for customers inside airport lounges, offices, hotels, and other hospitality settings. The E’fridge accessory offers convenient access to milk kept at the perfect temperature. The optional Supertraditional body style also unlocks the possibility for custom branding on self-service machines.
