Description

The Athena by Victoria Arduino truly harnesses the ancient art of coffee creation. Born from a long line of machines, the first of these lever machines was crafted at the end of World War II, in 1946. They were the WAT series of espresso machines, ancestors of the exquisite Athena Leva, the first of which was made in late sixties in Casorate Sempione, Italy.

The materials used for the internal and external components make the espresso machine particularly remarkable. The bodywork was handcrafted by experts, perfectly preserving uniqueness and tradition that is also reflected in the final cup, a perfect espresso.

In typical manual espresso machines the water that enters the group is straight from the boiler, which is well known to have a pressure of 1 to 1.2 bar, corresponding to 250-270° Fahrenheit. It’s essentially the same water used to generate steam. Instead, in the Athena, it uses heat exchangers, the water temperature can be controlled to optimize the quality of extracted coffee. In this case, for an excellent pre-infusion, a special pressure reducer reduces the pressure of the water supply, which is normally 4 to 6 bar. With these specifications, coffee extractions with the Athena Leva are particularly creamy and not burnt (as may happen with water at high temperatures).

Features
  • Manual Dosing - The Victoria Arduino Athena espresso machine offers manual dosing, allowing baristas to have full control over the coffee extraction process.
  • Cool Touch Wands - The steam wands on the Athena are designed with cool-touch technology, ensuring safety during milk frothing.
  • Surface LEDs - The machine features surface LEDs that provide illumination and add a modern touch to its design.
  • Bar Pump Gauge - The Athena is equipped with a pump pressure gauge, allowing baristas to monitor and control the pump pressure for precise coffee extraction.
  • Reverse Mirror - The machine includes a reverse mirror, providing an alternative view of the espresso extraction process.
  • Drain Required - A drain connection is required for proper wastewater disposal.
  • Autosteam Capable - The Athena is capable of auto-steaming, simplifying the milk frothing process for milk-based beverages.
