The 9Barista espresso machine is a true innovation and a feat of coffee machine engineering. Designed by espresso fanatic and jet engineer William Playford, the machine produces real espresso on the stove top. How? By using the same principles as those found in jet engines; high pressures, perfectly controlled temperatures and precise engineering to bring it all together.
