THERESIA
The espresso machine Theresia, signed by Doriana and MassimilianoFuksas, is a compact, sculptural object of geometric design. The espresso machine’s body is inSupermirror stainless steel and looks as thoughthere is a diamondburied inside. A precious object that's attractive and at the same time simple and functional, combining tradition and innovation. A machine designed to enjoy a small daily indulgence, having an espresso, which is not only a quick leisure break, but a small authentic luxury.The name, Theresia, is a tribute to the creator of the brand, Pier TeresioArduino, a man of great talent and sensitivity. In 1905 he founded the Victoria Arduino company in Turin, making an essential contribution to the rapid spread of espresso consumption and an affirmation of Italian style in the world.
Functionality and use
For its innovative features, Theresiais designed forcoffee lovers and bars, restaurants and hotels, whose customers are attentive to details of the setting. It is also designed as an espresso machine for a home with glamorous and exclusive décor. The machine’s high level of modern technology means it can be used by non-expert baristas. The intuitive touch screen control panel and five buttons with LED lighting, mean that programming functions isextremely intuitive, so the machine can be used by anyone. Moreover Theresia has been designed to enjoy a small daily indulgence, having an espresso, which is not only a quick leisure break, but a small authentic luxury.
The upper part of the machine has a cup warmer that is not immediately visible but which can be seen by lifting the cover panel by up to 90 degrees.
Materials and Processes
The machine is completely made of stainless steel (Supermirror stainless steel for the body, stainless steel for the frame, the nozzles and the thermally insulated heating systems).Steel processing is carried out entirely by hand. After cutting the steel with a laser, experienced craftsmen work it by hand for a total of 110 different folds. Then the steel is welded and assembled to form a single body.
T3 technology
Theresia incorporates T3 technology, which has evolved from experience at the World Barista Championship. The T3 system sets new standards of accuracy in thermal water supply. The machine’s user can set, with maximum flexibility, the outlet temperature of the group through three different parameters (water, group, steam). The electronics of the machine do the rest. Digital temperature probes instantly send the information to the control unit which, through three independent PID, actively manages each variable.
The result is unmatched accuracy, regardless of the pace of work or the environmental conditions in which the machine operates. Water supply temperature can be monitored on the display in real time.
Other technical features
• Cool Touch steam nozzle. The steam nozzle has the patented Cool Touch which, in addition to ensuring greater security against annoying scalding, ensures easy cleaning and reduces the formation of milk scale.
• SIS system. Theresia incorporates the SIS system that guarantees a softinfusion to create higher quality creamy extractions.
• Smart functions. With Theresia other useful electronic functions are made possible with a control unit which allows multiple independent adjustments including the temperatures of the group and of the coffee and steam boilers, the extraction dose quantity (single or double coffee, continuous supply, steam or hot water), the pre-infusion time for coffee extraction, the hot water temperature mixer and power consumption through management of the machine components’ heating. From the display you can set "alert" times for maintenance, filter replacement and cleaning. You can also schedule shutdown on certain days.
• Ergonomic Teflon filter holder. Theresiais equipped with a special filter holder with an ergonomic handle and a non-stick coating that provides better cleaning and so preserves the aroma of coffee in the cup.
