Brewing Technology
Independent Groups and Multi-boiler System (USB Xcelsius Version Only) – Each independent group is equipped with a micro-boiler and two heating elements, to guarantee the thermal stability for both water temperature and group body, offering maximum accuracy at every cup.
Steady Brew (USB Version Only) – Rancilio Steady Brew (SB) technology is the evolution of the traditional thermosiphon system and introduces a set of innovative features designed to improve the performance of all single-boiler espresso machines. By keeping the water temperature stable during extraction, Steady Brew guarantees excellent thermal stability, reliability and maximum repeatability, both during busy periods and in low usage conditions.
T-Switch (USB Version Only) – Thanks to the 4-position T-Switch knob, a different extraction temperature can be set for each group, even for single boiler coffee machines. With the boiler adjusted to 1.0
bar, a temperature of approx. 88°C, 93°C, 96°C or 98°C can be set on each group and the right extraction temperature for each type of coffee is always available. The T-Switch can only be adjusted by specialised technicians during installation by removing the cup warmer.
Xcelsius Temperature Profiling (USB Xcelsius Version Only) – Xcelsius Temperature Profiling technology allows baristas to bring out the best in the organoleptic characteristics of any coffee, thanks to the dynamic regulation of the water temperature during the extraction phase. By increasing or decreasing the temperature by up to 5°C (9°F), baristas can adjust the specific characteristics of the espresso in order to improve the quality of the final product in the cup. Each group head is equipped with a 150 ml micro-boiler with a 250W internal heating element which, in combination with a special hydraulic system, allows for the instantaneous extraction temperature to be adjusted.
Steam & Water
C-Lever – The C-lever steam valve is operated by rotating the knob just 25°. Turning it upwards, the valve stays open. By turning it downwards, the valve opens and automatically closes when released.
Cool Touch Steam Wand – The cool touch steam wand is thermally insulated with a double protective coating. Cool touch technology limits the accumulation of milk fat deposits on steam wands facilitating cleaning operations.
iSteam (optional) – The iSteam wand features two buttons: “Cappuccino” to heat and froth milk, or “Latte” to heat only.
X-Tea – Baristas can program water dosages and temperature levels via the digital touchscreen interface.
Smart Interface
On-Board Computer – Enjoy complete command over your Classe 11’s functions, thanks to the on-board computer and its usable 5.7” touchscreen interface.
Touchscreen Interface – Allows quick and easy access to all machine settings via the digital touchscreen.
Rancilio Drive System – Rancilio Drive System provides three different, password protected menus to offer the best user experience to baristas, managers and technicians.
Born to be Green
Energy Saving – Insulated boiler and smart energy management save up to 20% of energy in standby mode. By managing different water levels in the boiler, the water-to-steam ratio can be optimised to achieve great brewing performance in heavy load conditions (Performance Mode) or maximum savings in low usage conditions (Eco Mode).
Cup Warmer – The cup warmer has a special heating element that guarantees even temperature distribution across the grid. The five temperature levels are regulated by a special sensor.
Insulated Boiler – The insulated boiler reduces energy consumption and increases thermal stability.
Advanced Boiler Management – ABM is a specific software developed to improve the performance of the machine in intense use conditions. When simultaneously brewing espresso, dispensing water and
steaming milk, ABM switches on the heating element to pre-empt any drops in temperature and ensure constant heating levels. ABM also allows control of the machine’s power absorption, reducing it to 2/3
of the normal value where power availability is low.
