Victoria Arduino VA388 T3 S GR2 Coffee Machine – Used

1. What power and electrical specifications does this espresso machine require?

A: This machine requires a standard 220-240V single-phase electrical connection and draws a powerful 7.3 kW. Your installation technician must connect it directly to a dedicated high-amperage circuit breaker to support continuous commercial operations safely.

2. How does the T3 Technology improve espresso extraction quality?

A: The T3 system provides independent temperature management across three distinct points: the main steam boiler, the coffee brew boiler, and the group head itself. Three electronic PID controls actively stabilize water temperatures, guaranteeing exceptional flavor profile consistency.

3. What are the exact counter footprint dimensions and weight requirements?

A: The unit features a low-profile design measuring 82.5 centimeters wide, 69.5 centimeters deep, and 49.0 centimeters high, with a net weight of 85.0 kilograms. It requires a highly reinforced counter with appropriate plumbing cutouts.

4. Does this model feature insulated steam wands for staff safety?

A: Yes, it includes dual Cool Touch stainless steel steam wands. The specialized internal thermal insulation prevents the outer surface from heating up during frothing, protecting your baristas from accidental burns and preventing milk baking onto the metal.

5. How easy is it for baristas to manage and clean this system daily?

A: Operation is exceptionally simple. Baristas monitor shot times via real-time group TFT displays and trigger automated backflushing cycles digitally at the end of a shift, ensuring fast back-of-house sanitation with minimal manual scrubbing.

6. Is this high-cup espresso machine suitable for high-volume takeaway service?

A: Absolutely. This high-cup configuration provides generous vertical clearance under the group heads, allowing baristas to brew directly into large takeaway cups or tall glasses, streamlining high-volume drink preparation and morning coffee rushes.
