Espresso is an Italian coffee drink, so it is no wonder that Italians have the corner on the equipment, with the many brands of espresso machines on the market today. Espresso machines are available in a variety of sizes for both personal and commercial use.

They are all designed with stainless-steel bodies, nickel-plated copper boilers and brass portafilters. These heavy-duty materials reduce the likelihood of oxidation and can withstand any type of bump, bang or other minor injury that may occur in a commercial kitchen. Most of these machines are available with either semi-automatic or fully automatic control panels to reduce the labor needed to make a shot of espresso. Some of these features include automatic coffee grinding and measuring, self-adjustable water levels and an electronic sensor to gauge the correct water temperature.
Royal Facon Enterprises/Grimac Royal Falcon Corp. imports Italian espresso machines, such as the popular La Valentina, the One Group and multi-group Vittoria Classica line, the Diadema, Lira, Monza, Imola, Gran Doge and Antea. In addition to the machines, Grimac carries a large inventory of the replacement parts and accessories that are needed with La Valentina, Vittoria and Diadema machines.
