A heap of high-technology and design mark this iperespresso system: illy has brought out an extremely compact espresso machine (16cm x 16cm x 21cm weighing less than 3kg).
Kiss is a breakthrough in innovation in the where espresso machines are concerned. Born out of the collaboration between illycaffè and Gotec, a Swiss company specializing in mechanics and precision engineering since 1963. The model marries the precise Swiss mechanics with Iperespresso, the capsule extraction system designed and patented by illy.
With three cylinders upon a circular base (which seen from above looks like a clock), its body in anodized aluminum, its glass water tank with sandblasted decorations, its technical nucleus in stainless steel with magnetic cup atop, Kiss is the highest spec capsule espresso machines on the market.
The exclusive AIO ( All In One ) integrates the pump, heating unit and flow control into the smallest of spaces.
Thanks to an innovative system created by a gear wheel and an endless screw, the process of pressurizing the water doesn’t create any vibration or noise. An integrated heater in the pump means that the water can be heated to the desired temperature and only the necessary amount of water for each cup.
A small panel with touch controls enables you to predetermine the desired quantity of coffee and the exact temperature of each cup. Silently and with the minimum amount of energy (900 W and automatic switch off after four minutes).
Refinement and sophistication taken to the extreme: 12 colors available, endless possibilities to personalize it (it is possible to have any color you like with any decoration on the glass water tank), uniquely numbered complete with a carry case so that Kiss will always be by your side.
This is the illy taste in its highest form and it is thanks to the double stage iperespresso capsule that (hyperinfusion + emulsion) intensifies both the body and the aroma of the 6.7 grams of pure Arabica coffee.
