Brewing Technology
Rancilio Classe 20 is available in two versions with different thermal control systems developed by Rancilio LAB. Classe 20 SB introduces the Steady Brew patent, Classe 20 ASB presents an innovative
multi-boiler system with independent groups.
Advanced Steady Brew (ASB Version) – Each independent group is equipped with a micro-boiler and a heating element, to guarantee thermal stability for both water temperature and group body, offering maximum accuracy at every cup. In the Advanced Steady Brew version, baristas can set different water temperatures for each group via interface.
Steady Brew (Version SB) – SB is the technological solution that revolutionises Rancilio coffee machines’ hydraulic system. By keeping water temperature steady, it guarantees maximum repeatability during extraction, both during work peaks and in low-usage conditions. The temperature for each group can be adjusted during installation.
T-Switch (Only on SB Version) – Thanks to the 4-position T-Switch, 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, 90°C, 93°C or 97°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.
Steam & Water
Cool Touch Steam Wand – Ergonomic cool touch steam wands to work in total safety.
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.
iSteam – 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.
Coffee Intelligence
Touchscreen Interface – Through the easy-to-use 4.3″ touchscreen display, baristas can adjust coffee and water settings and control all the machine’s parameters in real time. Swipe left or right with two fingers to quickly navigate through the various menus.
Group Heads with Dedicated Displays (Only ASB Version) – A dedicated screen for each brew group, displaying a digital timer for each shot, the extraction temperature indicator and an integrated button click feeling to start and stop continuous brewing.
Rancilio Drive System – Rancilio Drive System provides three different, password-protected menus to offer the best user experience to baristas, managers and technicians.
Lights – The aesthetics RGB lights on the side panels, on the group covers and above the control panel, can be customised with different intensities and colours. Group heads feature ample lighting provided by LEDs that illuminate the work area.
Green
Energy Saving – Insulated steam boiler, smart energy management and optional low power mode, deactivating one of the three heating elements.
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.
