In the Pro 300, a classic dual boiler machine, a ring brewing group with a 0.4 l brass boiler heats the water for the coffee. The second boiler with a capacity of 0.75 l is responsible for steam and hot water and is made of stainless steel. A large plastic tank with a capacity of 2.8 l ensures the water supply (the machine switches off automatically if the water level falls below a minimum level). The brewing temperature - best for espresso: 92 to 94 °C - can be programmed to the exact degree using the PID display on the front of your machine. Good to know: The Pro 300 is fast. The machine doesn't need more than three minutes to bring the ring brew group up to operating temperature. So if you want to offer your guests an espresso at the end of a meal, the cups will be on the table in no time. It only takes a little longer if a cappuccino is desired instead of an espresso, as switching on the steam boiler - to supply the steam lance with steam - extends the heating time by a further two minutes. The vibration pump with excellent acoustic damping ensures quiet, smooth operation. Energy-saving effect included: thanks to the separately programmable eco mode and boiler insulation, consumption is reduced slightly.

Originally founded as a pure sales company, Profitec has been designing and building its own espresso machines for over 30 years. Decades of experience meet perfection and classic Italian design meets German craftsmanship. Yes, indeed: the machines in the Profitec range are manufactured from A to Z at the company's headquarters near Neckargemünd. A second production site is located in Italy near Milan. And if you are now thinking: Wait, Neckargemünd? Isn't that where the espresso machine manufacturer ECM is based? Then you've been thinking in the right direction. The two companies have more than a friendly relationship, which can also be seen from the fact that the tried-and-tested ring brew group, which is also installed at Profitec, is normally used in ECM's single-circuit machines.
