A full-color touchscreen centralizes brew temperature, pre-infusion, flow and standby settings, while independent systems allow espresso extraction and milk steaming at the same time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnlike a traditional E61 machine, the MC3 uses active group heating for faster response and a smaller physical platform. A flow meter enables programmed single- and double-shot volumes, and separate controls are provided for pre-infusion time, pre-infusion flow and extraction flow. It is aimed at buyers who want digital repeatability and substantial steam capacity without a classic E61 chassis.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy Choose the Turin MC3?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTouchscreen recipe control\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe circular color display provides brew temperature, shot volumes, pre-infusion settings, extraction flow, backflush mode and standby timing.
