The Nuova Simonelli Aurelia Wave Volumetric espresso machine combines programmed shot dosing with the durable, ergonomic Aurelia platform. It is designed for medium- to high-volume cafés that want faster multitasking and consistent beverage recipes without moving to the Digit touchscreen interface. The barista can start a programmed dose and immediately steam milk, prepare the next portafilter or serve a customer while the machine completes the extraction.
Volumetric workflow for busy coffee bars
Unlike the Semi-Automatic model, the Volumetric measures each programmed dose and ends the brew cycle automatically. Its TFT display supports machine information and programming, while the Soft Infusion System (SIS) helps reduce the effect of minor puck-preparation inconsistencies. The result is a practical balance of control, speed and training efficiency for multi-barista teams.
- Programmable volumetric dosing: improves repeatability and frees the barista to multitask.
- TFT display: provides a dedicated interface for programming and operating information.
- Power-saving settings: help manage energy use during quieter periods.
- Autosteam capable: compatible with optional steam automation configurations.
- SIS soft infusion and reverse mirror: support extraction consistency and visual quality control.
- Raised groups and cool-touch wands: improve cup flexibility and daily ergonomics.
- Automatic cleaning: streamlines routine group washing.

Steam, color and project options
Black is standard; red or pearl-white side panels and base are available factory choices. Nuova Simonelli also lists left- and right-side steam upgrades for the Volumetric, including Selector Straight Autosteam, Gooseneck Autosteam and EasyCream. Water filtration, pod kits and installation/service plans can be quoted for the final project. Because these accessories have site-specific pricing and installation implications, the online machine selector stays limited to the correct 2 Group and 3 Group base configurations.
What is included
The official user manual lists the machine, a tamper, one single basket, one double basket per group, one blind basket per group, basket springs, portafilters totaling the number of groups plus one, double spouts, one single spout, a 3/8-inch inlet hose and a 3/4-inch drain hose. Final contents can vary by production revision.

Compare Aurelia Wave versions
The Volumetric is the middle of the three current configurations: it adds programmed dosing and a TFT display over the Aurelia Wave Semi-Automatic, while keeping a more conventional interface than the Aurelia Wave Digit. The Digit is the choice when touchscreen operation, auto-purge and enhanced diagnostics are priorities. Explore all Nuova Simonelli products and commercial espresso machines.
Frequently asked questions
What does volumetric dosing change?
The machine measures a programmed dose and stops the extraction automatically. That lets a barista steam milk or begin another task without manually ending every shot.
Does the Volumetric have a touchscreen?
No. It uses a TFT display. The Aurelia Wave Digit is the touchscreen version.
Can the Volumetric be ordered with automated milk steaming?
Yes. The current factory options include multiple Autosteam and EasyCream choices. Contact us to match the steam system to your menu and production goals.
What must be ready before installation?
A dedicated 220 V L6-30 circuit, correctly sized cold-water line, treatment that meets the listed water specifications, an open gravity drain and adequate counter space must be in place before the installer arrives.
