Victoria Arduino Commercial Espresso Machines
Find the machine for your everyday espresso ritual.
Choosing your equipment
Shop current Victoria Arduino commercial espresso machines for specialty cafés, restaurants, hotels, and high-volume coffee bars. Compare available models by dosing system, temperature-control platform, group count, steam demand, cup clearance, utilities, and service support.
Victoria Arduino was founded in Turin in 1905 by Pier Teresio Arduino and joined the Simonelli family in 2001. Browse the live product grid below for currently available machines. The older Black Eagle VA388, White Eagle Digit, and Adonis families are now discontinued, so contact Espresso Outlet before planning around one of those legacy platforms.
What the industry terms mean
Translate features into bar workflow
- Volumetric dosing
- The machine meters a programmed water volume and stops the shot automatically. This lets a barista begin another task while the extraction finishes, but recipes, grind, dose, distribution, and yield still require calibration.
- Gravimetric dosing
- A gravimetric system uses beverage weight as part of the target. Confirm the exact dosing system on the current product page rather than assuming it is included.
- T3 and PID temperature control
- These systems manage brew and steam temperatures more deliberately than a basic pressure-stat platform. They are useful when a specialty program needs repeatable temperatures across shifts or different coffee recipes.
- Soft Infusion System
- A Victoria Arduino pre-infusion approach designed to promote more forgiving, even extractions. It does not replace puck preparation or grinder adjustment.
- Two versus three groups
- Group count is working capacity, not a guaranteed drinks-per-hour rating. The practical limit can still be steam recovery, grinder output, milk handling, cup staging, bar layout, or the number of trained baristas.
Coffee shop planning and installation checklist
Questions to answer before choosing a machine
- Peak demand: How many espresso drinks arrive in the busiest 15, 30, and 60 minutes—not just across the full day?
- Drink mix: What share is milk-based, what pitcher sizes are used, and must two baristas steam and brew at once?
- Recipe control: Is programmed volumetric dosing sufficient, or does the coffee program require more advanced temperature or weight-based control?
- Utilities: What voltage, amperage, phase, plug or hardwire connection, water pressure, backflow protection, and drain route are available?
- Water chemistry: Has the site water been tested for hardness, alkalinity, TDS, sediment, chlorine, and chloramine so treatment can protect both flavor and the machine?
- Counter and access: Is there room for the machine, steam-wand sweep, grinders, knock box, pitcher rinser, refrigeration, cup storage, and future service access?
- Support: Who will install, commission, maintain, and service a previous-generation platform in your area, and which parts remain available?
Match the espresso machine with commercial grinders that can maintain dose consistency during the same peak period. A high-capacity machine cannot compensate for a grinder that overheats, clumps, or cannot keep up. Compare commercial coffee grinders and plan a separate decaf grinder if the menu requires it.
Victoria Arduino commercial espresso machine FAQs
Frequently asked questions
Is Victoria Arduino part of Nuova Simonelli?
Victoria Arduino joined the Simonelli family in 2001 and is part of Simonelli Group. It remains a distinct brand with its own design language and professional equipment lineup.
Are the models on this page current production?
The U.S. manufacturer currently places Black Eagle VA388, White Eagle, and Adonis in its discontinued-equipment archive. Availability can be limited, and continued parts or service support should be checked for the exact serial-era machine before purchase.
Should a new café choose two or three groups?
Choose from peak order concentration, staffing, steam demand, and bar width. Two groups are sufficient for many coffee bars. A third group earns its space when several trained baristas can use it during sustained rushes and the utilities, grinder capacity, and milk workflow support the added production.
Does volumetric mean fully automatic?
No. Volumetric dosing stops the brew cycle at a programmed volume, but the barista still grinds, doses, distributes, tamps, inserts the portafilter, manages milk, and monitors quality. It is an auto-volumetric traditional espresso machine, not a bean-to-cup super-automatic.
What information is needed for a commercial quote?
Provide the menu, busiest-hour volume, milk-drink percentage, desired group count, counter drawing, available electrical service, water test information, installation address, service access, and opening timeline.

Love the grinder...makes all the difference in my espresso making.
So far I have roasted 4 batches with the M1 Lite, and I'm very pleased. I have been roasting 6.4 oz / 181 grams for years, so the size matches my needs. Using Artisan on Linux, and all works perfectly. As for the sale, I received shipping info 3 days after I ordered, and it was delivered 8 days from order. Good experience.
Great shipping. Product as advertised.
Machine was shipped ver quickly and the quality has surprised both my wife and I. I have been working in the coffee industry for over 10 years and wanted something to use at home that would give more space for experimentation and for making tasty drinks. This does that with flying colors!!
First of all, there is not a lot of content or discussion about this machine in comparison to others. If you do a bunch of research from various places online you can get a real understanding of the value of this machine at the price point. This machine solves 2 direct problems with budget home machines. 1: direct plumbing and drain. The included pressure reducer/check valve makes this pump way above it's weight automatically. 2: thermoblock for brewing, steam boiler for milk steaming. No other machine has this configuration, and I have no idea why. Because of the very easily accessible OPV it also defeats an additional problem with spending under $1,500. You usually have to choose between a cheaper rotary or gear pump or a vibratory pump that produces way too much pressure. And while this unit ships with the pressure too high, backing off the valve is very easy. The machine also feels incredibly sturdy, even with commercial machines clocking on the portafilter you can move the whole machine on the counter, but not this one. Solid as a rock. Steam performance is incredible, dry steam because no heat exchanging. Hot water tap is my only gripe, just like every machine that sends water from the boiler, it flash boils and makes a hot mess. A cold blending valve might be a good mod when the warranty expires. Overall the espresso features with the programmable pre infusion, volumetrics from the flowmeter are all you really need to match machines 4x it's cost. I will say that the group head heating mechanism is not the most impressive thing, but it is better than nothing and I like the energy efficiency of the machine overall. It is my favorite espresso out of all the places I go to work on espresso machines in the field and I don't think you can do any better for under a $grand.
Great service every time I have a question, need service, or need advice.
This is a great coffee roaster to consider
Very satisfied with this grinder. Easy to use and clean. Highly recommend it!
This is our second espresso machine purchased from Espresso Outlet, and we couldn’t be happier! Our first was a Turin Gallatin, which is an incredible machine in its own right, but the Quick Mill Vetrano EVO DB has really impressed me.
The build quality is outstanding, the stainless steel construction is beautiful, and the machine feels incredibly solid and well-engineered. The rotary pump is exceptionally quiet, the dual boilers provide excellent temperature stability, and the E61 group head delivers fantastic espresso. It’s a true prosumer machine that looks just as impressive as it performs.
A special thanks to Barrett Ellis at Espresso Outlet for helping make this purchase happen. His customer service and willingness to go the extra mile were greatly appreciated.
If you’re considering the Quick Mill Vetrano EVO DB, I highly recommend it. It’s a beautiful, powerful, professional-quality machine that makes every morning feel like having your own personal coffee shop.
Five stars for the Quick Mill and Espresso Outlet! ☕
Joe always responds to any questions and requests promptly and professionally. I'm very happy with his company's service, and they're my favorite espresso machine / bean grinder supplier!
I use a DeLonghi espresso maker and purchased this already ground I believe the dark roast for espresso. I found this espresso to be very bold, rich, and tasted the flavor profile described- chocolate and caramel notes. The bag came within five days of my order, I felt the espresso was very fresh. Loved it! Will order again (it also paired well with sugar and a biscotti, haha). Thanks.
How do I get the shipment tracking code? Where is the request?
Grinder works great. It has really improved my espresso.
Very pleased. The team is very supportive when help is needed
