## Overview

The La Pavoni PC-16 is a professional-grade, lever-operated espresso machine crafted in Italy, featuring a 38oz solid brass boiler for stable temperature control, a 16-cup capacity, dual frothing options, and a mounted pressure gauge for precise brewing. Its polished chrome finish and manual operation deliver café-quality espresso and cappuccinos at home, making it a must-have for serious coffee aficionados.

## Description

Product Description The La Pavoni PC-16 Professional Espresso Machine blends timeless Italian design with expert-level performance, making it the ideal centerpiece for home baristas and espresso purists. This lever-operated model offers precise control over every step of the brewing process, giving you the ability to pull espresso shots that rival your favorite café. With its polished chrome finish and sleek black accents, the PC-16 is as much a statement piece as it is a precision tool. Inside, a solid 38-ounce nickel-plated brass boiler maintains steady brewing temperatures and minimizes limescale buildup, allowing you to brew up to 16 shots per fill. Using the manual lever system, you can brew 1 or 2 shots at a time-perfect for single servings or sharing. To ensure a rich, bold flavor and avoid dilution, the portafilter should be reloaded with fresh coffee grounds for each brewing cycle, whether you're making a single or double shot. Frothing milk is just as versatile. Use the traditional steam wand for hands-on milk texturing or opt for the Automatic Cappuccino Maker for easy, consistent foam. The integrated pressure gauge offers real-time brewing insights, helping you dial in each shot with precision. Built with food-safe stainless steel heating elements and handcrafted with attention to detail in Italy, the La Pavoni PC-16 is designed to deliver exceptional espresso for years to come. Note: Units may arrive with slight moisture or markings from the factory's quality assurance testing process-this is normal and ensures full functionality. desertcart.com Perhaps it's not surprising that an Italian company such as La Pavoni takes its espresso and cappuccino very seriously. The detailed manual and video that come with this professional-style machine spare no small detail while guiding you through the espresso and cappuccino process. With proper equipment, La Pavoni argues, including very fine grounds and a state-of-the art machine, an espresso or cappuccino can be a work of art. Because cafe prices are rising and an improperly made espresso is indistinguishable from mud, it's worth investing the time and equipment required for a rich and truly satisfying espresso experience. For me, one thing that separates a barista-style cappuccino from many homemade efforts is the quality of the foam. The Europiccola produces foam with just right amount of frothiness, although the foam can also be controlled if you prefer less enthusiastic frothing. For top-quality cappuccinos, the machine should be descaled four or five times a year (descaling instructions are included). Made of gleaming chrome, this strikingly attractive machine should not be cleaned with abrasives. --Laura CuthbertEditor's note: This item may arrive with water inside from the manufacturer's pressure test. This is a normal occurrence and doesn't point to a problem with the machine.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: can you tell me the time it takes to pull 2 shots, thinking of a coffee cart**
A: It doesn't take long to pull 2 shots--maybe 20 sec.  The problem is it takes about 10 min to heat the water, and you can't add water without waiting for the unit to cool down enough to remove the cap on the reservoir.  It would be a very poor choice for a coffee cart!

**Q: Thinking coffee cart for my 50 person company. They come in waves from 6-8. How long does it take to cool down before i can add more water?**
A: No he's not joking, while he is exaggerating a bit on the learning curve, a normal person can learn to use it in 10 minutes or so, forgetting to add water can break the machine,and you must wait the 10-15 minutes for it to cool down before refilling the machine.

**Q: Reveiwers have commented that the PC-8 would only produce a few shots before becoming too hot, is that also the case with the PC-16? I drink 4-6 shots first thing in the morning and need to know if this type of machine is the best fit.**
A: It also does....The 16 is larger, holds more water and subsequently a greater volume of steam. The heating elements are the same. TBH if you are drinking 4-6 doubles you will spend 25 minutes making those once you know what you are doing. The overheating issue is a novice persons issue, this is not a "put coffee in, get coffee out" machine, it requires a bit of learned skill to know when to turn the switch off to allow sufficient cooling as you make successive shots. So the "becoming too hot" is moot once you know what it is and why you avoid that issue. Avoiding shots made by too hot a machine soon become part of your technique to making good coffee.On another note, i found as my technique got better i required LESS coffee drunk per day as what i was making was by far some of the best coffee ive had and therefore didnt want to spoil the after taste by going overboard.

**Q: We have hard water issues.  Can the machine descaled?**
A: Yes it can. Sesttle Coffee Gear has a "how to" video. I think they were using dezcale. I use distilled water in my machine, as I have in my other machines, with no problems & no scaling issues.
