La Pavoni
La Pavoni Botticelli Evolution Dual Boiler PID Coffee Machine
£2,128.00(£2,553.60 inc VAT)
Delivery Information
Price Match
The La Pavoni Botticelli Evolution is a dual boiler semi-professional espresso machine built around the kind of features more commonly found in commercial-grade equipment. It operates two separate boilers — one dedicated to brewing and one to steam — which means extraction and milk steaming can happen simultaneously without either function compromising the other. That separation is genuinely useful during busy service periods where drink quality consistency matters as much as speed.
Temperature stability is managed through PID control working in combination with an E61 group head, a pairing that maintains precise brew temperature across consecutive shots and different coffee blends. The rotary pump operates quietly and delivers a steady extraction pressure, which contributes to repeatable results rather than the shot-to-shot variation that can undermine confidence during service. The machine can connect directly to a mains water supply, removing the need to monitor and manually refill the tank — a practical advantage in any setting where staff attention is divided.
Key operational features include:
- Simultaneous extraction and steaming via independent dual boiler system
- PID temperature control with E61 group head for thermal consistency
- Quiet rotary pump delivering steady extraction pressure
- Mains water connection option with automatic water level management
- Cool-touch steam wand for safer milk texturing during service
In terms of suitability, this machine sits in semi-professional territory. It is well suited to hotel breakfast service, small café operations, restaurant pass use, or any setting where drink volume is moderate and quality is a priority. It is not positioned to handle the continuous throughput demands of a high-volume espresso bar — operators running multiple group heads at full tilt throughout the day would be better served by a heavier-duty commercial machine.
If you are unsure whether this model fits your service requirements or installation setup, we are happy to talk it through before you commit to a purchase.
Frequently asked questions
Is this machine suitable for a small café or restaurant environment?
The Botticelli Evolution is well suited to lower-to-moderate volume settings such as small cafés, hotel breakfast service, or restaurant use where espresso-based drinks form part of a broader menu. It is not designed for sustained high-volume throughput — if your site is pulling a high number of consecutive shots throughout the day, a fully commercial machine with a larger group head setup would be a more appropriate fit.
Can this machine connect to a mains water supply rather than using the tank?
Yes, the machine supports direct mains water connection with automatic water level management, which removes the need for manual tank refilling during service. You will need a suitable water supply point accessible near the installation position, and depending on your local water hardness, a filtration or softening setup is worth considering to protect the boilers and maintain drink quality.
What are the key installation requirements for this machine?
The machine requires a standard UK 13A mains socket and a suitable surface that can support its weight. If connecting to mains water, a cold water supply point is needed nearby. Ventilation requirements are modest compared to full commercial equipment, but it should not be installed in an enclosed cabinet without adequate airflow around the unit.
