New technologies in coffee

We visited all the companies at expo and especially the booths that we represent here and want to see their latest innovations and most recent products, the most prominent of which was Dala Corte, one of the leading companies in manufacturing of espresso machines and accessories with exclusive patents. It is worth mentioning that the most prestigious specialty coffee cafes in America, "George Howell" transitioned to Dalla corte machines after his personal experience for a long time and said that the reason for this transition is the different results of the espresso taste, here is a link to George’s Howell opinion about Dalla Corte.

Dala Corte has launched a special partners event for their latest products” Zero” with specifications that make it one of the best espresso machines on the market today. It incorporated the latest technologies, where the control of the flow valve is electronic and an independent screen has been added with a control wand where the extraction of espresso is with no limits. The new machine will be launched next year, according to the official announcement.

Also one of the most prominent platforms for new technologies was for La marzocco, known for its quality, and known names in manufacturing espresso machines. The company has introduced many new and important technologies, most notably: the launch of the updated version of Linea Mini machine that can be controlled with smartphones and the release of the revised version of the GB5, Strada and the one group Leva. Not only that, they also launched a grinder for the home user and another for the commercial user with precise specifications to grind a more detailed coffee grind sizes. This is an important step for La Marzocco, where they entered for the first time the field of coffee grinders industry and also announced a milk steaming machine that helps you steam the milk with a button.
