Combining modern art with advanced technology, this easy-to-use espresso machine not only brews excellent-tasting coffee drinks right at home, it also makes for an interesting conversation piece. The stylish-looking appliance, properly named the "Diva", accommodates both ground coffee and coffee pods, makes one cup at a time or two cups simultaneously, and offers a steam wand for frothing milk or providing hot water for tea. An easy-to-read gauge clearly marks the appropriate temperature ranges for pulling shots and steaming milk. Other highlights include a 15-bar pump for fast heat-up times, brass fittings, an integrated water tank, and a stainless-steel cup-warming plate. Made of die-cast aluminum and available in a variety of colors, the Italian-made espresso machine measures approximately 12-2/5 by 13 by 18-1/2 inches and carries a one-year limited warranty.

Product Description

Easily one of the most stylish espresso machines on the market, the Diva Espresso Machine, by Bugatti. The unit is made of die-cast aluminum with a chromed finish, has a 15-bar pump for quick extraction and a fast startup time for the built-in heating elements. The machine pulls two shots at a time, either through fresh packed grounds or pods, and has an attached steam wand for frothing milk, a process which is helped along by the easy-to-read gauge in the front of the machine that clearly marks the appropriate temperature ranges for pulling shots and steaming milk. All internal parts are Italian made and the most important parts are made inside the BUGATTI GROUP All fittings are in Brass; the best material that can be used for Espresso Coffee machines. The Pump is an ULKA pump 15bar; ULKA is the best Italian company specializing in Pumps and is also the best quality you can find in the market today.

5.0 out of 5 stars POWER, GRACE, AND BEAUTY, February 8, 2009

By	Robert S. Corrington - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I purchased the red model of the Bugatti Diva about two months ago. After decades of burning out cheap espresso/cappuccino machines, I decided to get a more high-end model. What impressed me after pulling a few shots, was the inner power of this espresso maker--with 15 bar pressure, contrasted to the standard 8 or 9, extraction is quick and forceful, finishing with a beautiful light brown crema. It heats up quickly and is quieter during extraction than many other machines in my experience. Everything is solid and clearly designed for years of use. The milk steam frother has equal power to the extractor and sends plenty of heat and steam into the pitcher. The water tank in the back can be more easily filled with a reusable water bottle--avoiding the method of taking it out and carrying it to the water filter at the sink. Augmenting the previous reviewer I grind my beans (at a level just above Turkish coffee grind) and tamp the grind into the other style portafilter from the pod version he uses. I too have high praise for this very solid implement which has a tight and solid feel when connected to the machine, so the reader now has positive reviews of both portafilter versions. Finally, a word about grace and beauty. Aesthetically driven product design hasn't always been part of our lives in North America. The Bugatti Diva has a stark angularity and seems to slighly thrust forth at you with its wonderful large dial, but this assertiveness actually echoes well with my kitchen, and, I suspect, will do so with most other's kitchens. This will certainly be the only time in my life that I will own a Bugatti original. That being said, I give their Diva espresso and capuccino maker the highest possible praise, adding that I recommend the red version for its dramatic presentation of what is, after all, the most important appliance in any cultured and civilized kitchen.

5.0 out of 5 stars Love It!, November 17, 2008

By	Sam - See all my reviews

I now have two pieces of functional art on the counter tops in my kitchen. The Bugatti toaster and the Bugatti espresso maker. They bring my kitchen alive, are focal points and quite the conversation pieces. The espresso maker has true Italian styling and looks like no other machine on the market. The DVD and the printed instructions where easy to follow so now I can make a great cappuccino at home instead of having to drive to the coffee shop each day. What I am saving on my coffee shop runs for a year I spent on this machine. I prefer using the espresso pods instead of loose espresso so I just changed out the filter basket to the one that accepts pods and I was ready to make a great espresso with a nice crème and also a cappuccino with a frothy milk.
I can't say enough good things about my new, functional piece of art!
