KY-718 Commercial Espresso Machine

Professional Espresso Machine Performance with Modern Commercial Design

In a professional coffee environment, consistency is the key to maintaining beverage quality.

The KY-718 2 Group Commercial Espresso Machine combines advanced temperature management technology, independent brewing control and durable commercial components to provide stable espresso extraction and efficient workflow.

Designed for professional baristas and coffee businesses, KY-718 features a T3 triple boiler heating system, separate brewing boilers, a powerful steam boiler and independent heated saturated groups. It allows espresso preparation and milk steaming to operate efficiently without affecting each other.

With its modern appearance and reliable internal structure, KY-718 is an ideal choice for cafes, restaurants, hotels, bakeries and coffee chains.

T3 Triple Boiler Heating System

Independent Brewing and Steam Control

KY-718 adopts a professional T3 heating system with three independent boilers:

• 10L steam boiler

• 2 × 0.8L brew boilers

The separated boiler structure allows:

• Independent espresso temperature management

• Stable steam production

• Reduced temperature interference

• Better consistency during continuous operation

Unlike traditional heat exchange espresso machines, KY-718 separates brewing and steaming functions, providing better control for professional coffee preparation.

Independent Heated Saturated Group Head

Each group head of KY-718 is independently heated to maintain stable brewing conditions.

The saturated group design helps:

• Reduce temperature fluctuation during extraction

• Maintain consistent espresso quality

• Improve repeatability between different shots

For commercial coffee businesses, stable group temperature is essential for maintaining the same coffee taste throughout the day.

Stable Temperature Performance for Commercial Operation

Designed for Continuous Espresso Production

In a busy cafe environment, temperature stability is one of the most important factors affecting espresso consistency.

KY-718 is engineered for continuous commercial operation with a T3 triple boiler heating system, independent brew boilers and heated saturated group heads. The separated heating structure minimizes temperature interference between brewing and steaming, allowing the machine to maintain stable extraction conditions during long working hours.

Continuous Output Test:

1200ML continuous water output

Performance:

• Brewing temperature remains stable at 92°C

• After exceeding 1200ML continuous output:

  • Temperature fluctuation: 3–6°C

  • Recovery time: 8–13 seconds

More importantly, this extreme test represents a much more demanding condition than normal cafe operation. In real coffee shop workflows, there are usually short intervals between each espresso shot for grinding, dosing, tamping, extraction and serving.

Under normal café operating conditions, KY-718 is designed to sustain continuous double-shot extraction without a fixed cup limit, with no more than 5 seconds between consecutive double-shot cycles. During this workflow, brewing temperature fluctuations remain within ±0.3–0.5°C.

This enables a 2-group KY-718 to support demanding service schedules with consistent extraction performance, making it suitable for cafes, restaurants and commercial coffee operations requiring dependable espresso output throughout the day.

Fast Heating System

KY-718 is designed to reduce waiting time before operation.

Heating Performance:

Brew Boiler

• From 28°C to 92°C

• Heating time: 3.5 minutes

Steam Boiler

• Heating to 122°C

• Heating time: 7.5 minutes

This allows coffee businesses to start operation quickly after machine activation.

Professional Temperature and Extraction Adjustment

KY-718 provides flexible control settings for professional coffee preparation.

Adjustable parameters include:

• Steam temperature

• Extraction temperature

• Pre-infusion time (1–9 seconds)

• Water flow

• Coffee volume

These adjustments allow baristas to optimize extraction parameters according to:

• Different coffee origins

• Roast profiles

• Espresso recipes

• Customer preferences

Imported Commercial Components

KY-718 uses selected professional components to ensure reliability and durability.

Imported Italian GICAR Flowmeter

Provides accurate water flow measurement for consistent extraction control.

Italian FOT Rotary Pump (PA204)

The commercial rotary pump delivers stable pressure and supports professional cafe operation.

Real-Time Extraction Pressure Monitoring

KY-718 is equipped with:

Steam Pressure Gauge

Displays steam boiler pressure status.

Real-Time Extraction Pressure Gauge

Shows actual extraction pressure during brewing.

Note: This is extraction pressure, not pump pressure.

This allows baristas to monitor the real brewing process and adjust extraction parameters more accurately.

100% Copper Brewing System

For better heat transfer and durability, KY-718 uses:

• Full copper piping system

• 100% pure copper brew head

Copper provides excellent thermal conductivity, helping maintain stable brewing conditions.

Automatic Backflush Cleaning Function

KY-718 includes an automatic backflush function to simplify daily maintenance.

Benefits:

• Easier cleaning process

• Reduced operator workload

• Improved machine hygiene

• Longer equipment lifespan
