The Cecotec Baristeo Intima is an espresso machine built around a 15-bar Italian pump and a 58 mm professional portafilter, aimed at anyone who wants proper control over extraction without an integrated grinder to manage. It suits espresso, americanos and milk-based drinks made from your own ground coffee.
Key features
- 15-bar Italian pump — constant, precise pressure for a full-flavoured shot with crema.
- PID temperature control — lets you fine-tune the pre-infusion temperature to suit different beans.
- Thermoblock heating — quick warm-up between uses.
- Orientable steam wand — froths milk for cappuccino and latte-style drinks.
- Dual coffee outlet — brew one or two cups from the portafilter at once.
- Cup-warming tray — keeps cups ready on top of the machine.

Good to know
This machine uses ground coffee loaded into the portafilter rather than a bean hopper, so choose a grind suited to espresso. Purge the steam wand after every use and descale periodically, particularly in hard-water areas, to protect the pump and thermoblock.
