BOSCH B20 Espresso/Coffee Center
BOSCH B20 Gourmet Coffee Machine - Fully Automated Espresso/Coffee Center
The BOSCH Benevenuto B20 Gourmet Coffee Machine is one of the most feature-rich machines on the market for the money. This Swiss work of art makes perfect espresso or coffee in about 30 seconds at the press of a button. The key feature of this machine is gourmet taste and convenience. Enjoy fully automated features that will have you making perfect espresso, coffee, lattes, café mochas, cappuccino, and other great coffeehouse drinks in the blink of an eye.
BOSCH has combined convenience with taste through advanced features. These include the exclusive AromaSwirl System for maximum flavor extraction, stainless steel boiler, which helps protect against your coffee acquiring a metal taste, precise temperature control for optimum flavor release, and a built-in water filter that completely cleans the water for a pure coffee taste.
Advanced features include programmable brewing options, adjustable coffee strength, the ability to use pre-ground coffee of your choice in addition to coffee beans (useful if you have decaffeinated beans in the hopper, but want a regular espresso/coffee), rapid switching between brewing and steaming functions, an adjustable coffee grinder for fine tuning your espresso/coffee, and an automated cleaning system.
Detailed Product Features:
Advanced Patented AromaSwirl Brewing System
The AromaSwirl System yields maximum flavor and aroma from the brewing process. This special system combines freshly ground coffee with water that is at the ideal temperature in a pressurized brewing system. The coffee grounds are conditioned (presoaked) in hot water for a few seconds, and then subjected to high pressure during the computer controlled brewing cycle. The result is coffee and espresso that has been brewed under perfect conditions.
Automatic Espresso & Coffee Brewing Easy To Operate
The Benevenuto B20 was designed so that anyone, regardless of their experience could easily master the art of making great coffeehouse drinks. When the coffee button is pressed, the machine will grind just the right amount of coffee beans, place the grounds into the brewing system, extract your coffee or espresso, and clean up after itself in one complete step.
The designers kept in mind that all you want is great coffee drinks and not a lot of fancy buttons and controls. There are two control knobs and one coffee brew button to master in order to make coffee drinks. Its so easy! To brew coffee you simply dial in the coffee drink you want and using the other dial you select how strong your coffee selection will be.
Select from the following coffee drinks: Small espresso, espresso, small coffee, coffee, large coffee, XXL coffee. You may also brew a double of any of these drinks (2 espressos or 2 large coffees for example) by selecting that option on the coffee drink selector!
Hot Water Dispenser & Instant Steam Feature
Turn on the steam knob, wait about 10 seconds, and you will have all of the instant steam you want for cappuccinos or lattes. A convenient frothing tip for creating milk froth comes with the machine and delivers perfect foam every time for lattes or cappuccinos, even if you have never foamed milk before! The steam wand is located on the right-front of the machine and it accommodates frothing pitchers up to 20 oz. If you need instant hot water for making tea, hot cocoa, or Americanos, the hot water feature is available at the turn of a dial.
Special Pre-Ground Coffee Funnel
This option allows you to pour pre-ground coffee into a funnel that is accessed by lifting a small lid on top of the machine. This feature is perfect when there is someone in the crowd who wants a decaffeinated espresso and there are only caffeine espresso beans in the machine, or if you wish to sample other blends of coffee. After making a cup of coffee with the pre-ground option, the machine automatically resets back to the beans held in the machine. Its all up to tasters choice.
Information Display Screen
Unlike any machine in its class, the B20 has a information screen that has 12 backlit symbols on it that tells you everything from what mode the machine is in to when the machine needs to be cleaned, so there is no guessing on how to use the machine.
Symbols include:
Rinse Mode
Ground Coffee Mode
Coffee Ready
Steam Mode
Fill Water Tank
Empty Water Tray
Descale Appliance
Clean Appliance
And more!
Professional Quality Coffee Grinder
Six Settings Proper grinding is at the core of excellent coffee production. The Benevenuto has a built-in, conical type burr grinder, the same type used by the professionals. Pushing the brew button sets the cycle in motion with the grinder measuring out the correct amount of beans for the selection made and then grinding it to specifications.
Conical burr grinders are made up of a cone shaped grinding wheel that turns slow enough not to burn the coffee beans, (a problem with low cost grinders). The heavy-duty steel of the grinding wheel promotes a life of long service and thats strong enough to resist damage from the little stones that sometimes slip in with the beans. This durable construction is consistent with top quality machines and little or no maintenance or service is needed.
Built-in ½ Gallon Water Tank
The Benevenuto water reservoir can easily be refilled while it is still on the machine or by removing it with the easy-grip handle and filling it at the kitchen tap. The reservoir is made of smoke color ABS plastic so checking the water level is a breeze. When the water runs low, the digital display will remind you when to refill it.
For Perfect Coffee Extraction - a Powerful Pump
Delivering a maximum pressure of 15 bars, this on board water pump pulls the maximum flavor from the coffee beans.
Coffee Bean Storage Hopper & Internal Dump Box
Keeping ½ pounds of beans fresh and ready for grinding is the built in, lidded coffee bean hopper. This large capacity allows up to 30 cups of coffee to be prepared before refilling is needed. When the coffee grounds are spent, the machine delivers them to the internal dump box; which can hold up to 15 expended coffee portions. Its easy to remove and clean.
Stainless Steel Boiler
The Benevenuto is special, as it is one of the very few fully automated coffee centers in this price range that features a 1300 watt stainless steel lined thermoblock boiler. Using stainless steel improves coffee flavor and greatly increases the life span of the boiler.
Adjustable Beverage Dispensing Nozzle
This coffee dispensing nozzle moves up or down to accept cup sizes up to 4.25 inches high.
Heated Cup Stacking Surface
Located on the top of this machine is a heated surface made of non-stick metal that allows you to stack up those espresso cups and keep them toasty.
Installation & Accessories
Plug it in and the Benevenuto is ready to go. No fuss, no muss, no special plumbing for water intake or discharge and no special electrical outlets are required.
Detailed instructions on the optimum care and operation of your machine is included with the purchase along with a replaceable water filter, water hardness test kit, and cleaning tablets.
