The Eagle: The Specialty Machine

By Rachael Markovic

Ever wonder what goes on behind the “steams”?

In order to bring the finest coffee experience to Fort Lauderdale, we’ve partnered up with an already established roaster who shared their secrets on how to prepare the perfect cup of coffee.

To start, we purchased the official espresso machine from the World Barista Championship 2015 to 2017. For those of you who dedicate their lives to coffee; who study, research and experiment with different roasts and blends, we’ve perfected each measurement to transfer a real coffee experience directly to you.

It’s maker Victoria Arduino describes it as “a coffee machine for the specialty coffee shop, a machine that is stable, consistent and volumetric. In the continuous search for a constant result in the cup, many baristas have verified and demonstrated how the volumetric system allows them to obtain a significantly higher quality repeatable product compared to the manual system. The volumetric version of the VA388 Black Eagle addresses this need and goes beyond. We wanted to create a coffee machine for specialty baristas, making a volumetric model with the greatest temperature stability to help baristas in their daily work. We wanted the new machine to improve the relationship between customer and barista. The designer Viglino adopted a soft style, with more curves and asymmetrical elements, in a product 49 cm high.”
