LP Professional

La Pavoni Professional by Francesco

The Professional model was born in 1974.

Compared to the model Europiccola has the following characteristic:

the boiler is increased and can contain up to 1,6 liters of water
has the gauge to control the proper pressure
is equipped with the pressurestat that keeps constant pressure in the boiler and the thermofuse to protect the heating element
the switch has only two positions (on-off)

It takes advantage all the technological changes that accompanied the Europiccola in its first 14 years of production, plus those safety devices that only many years later will also be used on Europiccola.
For this reason we can say that has remained basically unchanged until today.

The first machines are characterized by base painted and sub-base in rubber, only few years after his first appearance is made with chrome base (1978), more aesthetically appealing and more lasting

After few years the sub-base in rubber is replaced, for safety reasons, with a sub-base of rigid plastic and screwed to the base (1984)

.Then it was the turn of the cover in metal of the sight glass, which is replaced by a protective plastic (1990). The cap boiler is lengthened and the handle lever and the holder filter became bigger (1994).

Finally, as was done for the Europiccola in 2001, the delivery group is modified with the introduction of an internal teflon sleeve, designed to improve the thermal performance of the group and have a temperature of water supply more stable than the previous models.
