La Pavoni
La Pavoni Casabar Manual Domestic Coffee Machine
£553.00(£663.60 inc VAT)
Delivery Information
Price Match
The La Pavoni Casabar is a manually operated domestic espresso machine built around a stainless steel single boiler and a 15-bar vibration pump. It is designed for home use where the operator wants hands-on control over the brewing process rather than a fully automated result. The removable 2.9-litre water tank reduces the frequency of refills during a session, and the pump pressure gauge, water level indicator and temperature light give enough feedback to work with consistency across successive shots.
In practice, the Casabar suits a home environment where espresso is made in small runs — a few drinks at a time — rather than continuous back-to-back service. The single boiler handles both brewing and steam production, which means there is a brief transition period between pulling a shot and steaming milk. This is standard for this class of machine and worth factoring in if you intend to make milk-based drinks in quick succession. Dedicated switching for steam, water and brew gives direct control over each stage, and the passive cup warmer helps maintain cup temperature without additional steps.
Practical features that aid daily use include:
- Removable drip tray for straightforward cleaning
- Pump pressure gauge to help with shot consistency
- Water level indicator to avoid running the boiler dry
- Temperature indicator light to confirm brewing readiness
- Stainless steel and chromed brass construction for durability
It is worth noting that this is a domestic machine and is not rated or intended for commercial or semi-commercial use. It is not suited to café, hospitality or catering environments where continuous or high-volume output is required. For those applications, a commercial-grade machine with a heat exchanger or dual-boiler system would be the appropriate starting point.
The Casabar is well suited to home baristas who want manual involvement in the process and a compact machine with a practical feature set. If you are unsure whether this fits your intended use, or if you are looking at this for a small office or light-duty hospitality setting, we are happy to talk through what would actually suit your needs.
Frequently asked questions
Is the La Pavoni Casabar suitable for use in a café or hospitality setting?
No — the Casabar is a domestic machine and is not designed for commercial or semi-commercial use. For café, hospitality or catering environments, a commercial-grade machine with the appropriate duty rating would be needed. If you are unsure what specification is appropriate for your setting, we can advise.
Can I steam milk and pull espresso shots back to back on this machine?
The Casabar uses a single boiler, which handles both brewing and steam production. There is a short transition period required between brewing and steaming, which is normal for single-boiler machines. It is well suited to making a few milk-based drinks in sequence at home, but is not designed for continuous alternating output.
What maintenance does the Casabar require during regular home use?
Routine maintenance involves emptying and rinsing the removable drip tray, descaling the boiler periodically depending on your local water hardness, and keeping the group head and steam wand clean after each use. The removable water tank makes flushing and refilling straightforward.
