• An Italian Barista at your Fingertip:

• Pump System:

The Royal Digital Plus features a powerful pump rated at 15 bars (217.6 psi) of pressure.  The Italian coffee making tradition requires a steady pressure to produce first class espresso and coffee. Only in such a way the water can plow through the finest coffee grounds, for the perfect extraction.

When the reservoir runs out of water, the LCD will indicate that the water reservoir needs to be filled. The machine will stop brewing if it runs out of water.
