Espresso machine Gastroback 2.8 L Design Advanced Duo

The Gastroback 2.8 L Design Advanced Duo is a semi-automatic espresso machine with a 2.8 L water tank and stainless steel housing. It integrates a grinder with a 260 g bean hopper and 30 grind settings, a dual-circuit thermoblock system for simultaneous espresso and milk foam preparation, and a separate hot water outlet for American coffee, café crème or tea. The unit includes an analog display and a powerful 3000 W motor for domestic barista-style brewing.

Advantages

The dual-circuit thermoblock allows brewing espresso and steaming milk at the same time, reducing wait time between extraction and milk frothing. The integrated grinder processes beans immediately to preserve aroma and offers 30 grind settings for dose and texture control. A separate hot water outlet provides instant hot water for larger coffee types or tea. Stainless steel construction improves durability and complements kitchen interiors.
