Stainless steel housing. Water tank (volume 3 l) made of plastic. The boiler and pipes in hot water area are made of copper. Duroplast tilting lever. Filter holder with twin spout and 2 filters (for 7 and 14 g), 1 extra filter. Double pressure gauge for boiler and brewing pressure (9 bar). Brewing temperature 94–96 °C.Note: For Maintenance and spare parts please contact our customer center. Power consumption 1.4 kW. Height 37.5 cm, width 25 cm, depth 42.5 cm. Weight 19 kg. Cable length 1.84 m. With two water circuits which work separately, this machine provides the water for coffee at the optimal brewing temperature for an espresso (94–96 °C) and the hot steam for foaming milk.Control and operation. BZ 10 is ready to use after a little more than ten minutes after switching on. A double pressure gauge shows the boiler as well as the brewing pressure and therefore not only provides information about the operating state of the machine but also information about the correct degree of grinding (is the espresso coffee too finely ground or perhaps too coarse?) and, if appropriate, when decalcification should be carried out. The machine has been set to a brewing pressure of 9 bar. Unusual for a machine of this price range: Steam and water taps, as is the case with larger appliances for the catering industry, are provided with a robust tilting mechanism which makes time-consuming screwing superfluous, and enables a quick change. This advantage is not to be underestimated if you want to prepare several cups of cappuccino or espresso quickly at the same time.Everything simultaneously. Dual circuit technology. The machine has two water circuits which work separately, water for a coffee at the perfect brewing temperature for an espresso (94–96 °C) can be prepared at the same time as the hot steam for foaming milk. Hot water required for pre-warming cups or for making tea can also be obtained from the hot water outlet. All the details in this appliance have been carefully designed to make a quick and easy coffee break possible. The (plastic) tank with its 3l holding capacity provides a more than sufficient supply of water (if water levels fall below a minimum amount, the machine automatically switches itself off), in the brewing group an additional electrical heater also ensures that the 1.5l of water used by the boiler and the brewing group not only reach the operating temperature at an astonishing speed but also maintain this temperature very precisely.This is an appliance which virtually meets catering industry standards. Clear arrangement: Bezzera BZ 10. With stainless steel housing. As part of the range produced by this Milan-based manufacturer, the BZ10 is one of the espresso machines which are, to some extent, transitional models - positioned between smaller household machines and larger machines designed for use in cafés and trattorias. Although this is a fairly compact machine in terms of size, the BZ10 still incorporates some exciting technical features which are otherwise only found in much more expensive models, and reflect the typical Bezzera emphasis on functionality. Particularly worthy of note in this context is the dual boiler technology. The clear arrangement of the operating controls is also a key feature of the machine: right the brewing group of the hot water outlet, left the steam tap, and all three are easily accessible.
