The highly-acclaimed Vivaldi II has been updated by La Spaziale to offer a non-plumbed option, making it ideal for any coffee connoisseur.

Whether you're a beginner or an experienced barista, this espresso machine is a perfect fit, with additional options including a pre-infusion chamber and custom wooden side panels to add a touch of sophistication. Discover the unrivaled quality of La Spaziale with this classic machine.

Highlights

The S1 Mini Vivaldi II Home Espresso Machine is an impressive, compact option for those who desire quality espresso at home but are short on kitchen space. Responding to this need, we worked with the manufacturer to produce a non-plumbed version of the La Spaziale machine. You can rest assured that all warranty work is handled by our staff of factory-trained technicians, who have over 100 years of combined experience servicing both commercial and at-home espresso machines. We not only provide servicing, but are also available to answer any questions you may have. Despite its name, this mini machine boasts a long list of features.

**Please Note. NOT to be used in commercial application. Your warranty will be VOID.

Key Features

The redesigned top cover of the La Spaziale Mini Vivaldi II Espresso Machine eliminates the Plexi cup guard, making it more user-friendly and reducing the overall height to just 15". In response to numerous requests for a non-direct plumbed version, a Mini (non plumbed) version was developed and exceeded expectations. The newly designed portafilters add to its performance and aesthetic appeal. Plus, the addition of Programmable + or - 8-degree Offset Differential and the option for a Pre Infusion Chamber have further enhanced its features.

Optional Pre-Infusion Chamber

Maximize the capabilities of your La Spaziale Mini Vivaldi II espresso machine with the addition of a Pre Infusion chamber. This chamber operates similarly to those found on E61 groups, and can be easily attached to the pre-drilled and tapped hole on your brew group. Simply remove the current plug and secure the chamber in place. 

Programmable Offset Differential

This allows you to set the LED temperature setting on the front of the machine to be equal to the temperature being delivered at the group rather than the temperature inside the group boiler. The original Mini Vivaldi II machines had this feature but it was only a 3-degree adjustment. Although we had not run into any problems setting the proper offset with this small range we figured since it is only a software change why not make it + or - 8 degrees, therefore, insuring there would NEVER be an issue. Note: We set it during the bench test of each machine prior to shipping so you don't have to invest in the expensive equipment necessary to perform the tests and setting.

Dual Manometer

It is no longer necessary to purchase a portafilter with a pressure gauge to either check or make adjustments to your pump's output pressure.

Decreased Delta

What does this mean? The previous model required a one-degree Celsius temperature drop before activating the heater, while the NEW Vivaldi II triggers the heater at just one half degree Celsius. This enhancement results in even more precise temperature accuracy and improved performance for both the group boiler and steam boilers. Additionally, the updated temperature sensing probe is now submerged directly into the boilers, providing increased reliability and a faster reaction time than the previous style.

New LED Displays

The previous display showed 5-degree increments, from 85 to 120 degrees Celsius. The NEW Vivaldi II displays in 1-degree increments, from 91 to 97 degrees Celsius.

Differential Adjustability

Programming allows you to set the temperature at the group to correspond with the LED. We test each machine and adjust the differential before shipping.

Updates

As of March 2014, the in-tank water softener has been replaced with a softener pouch. 

As of August 2017, this machine can only be used in 15 amp mode but will continue to have a 20 amp plug on the machine, so a converter cord will be included with all Mini Vivaldi machines.

As of December 2021, the Mini Vivaldi now has bluetooth connectivity built into the software.
