The Superkop is an innovative manual espress machine that operates without electricity.
It requires hot water (from your tap or kettle), freshly ground coffee beans, and a little elbow grease to operate the lever.
The Superkop lever machine is elegant and modern, featuring a sleek design and sturdy materials. Moreover, it can be wall-mounted with a special wall mount (sold separately).
The body of the Superkop is made of cast aluminum, while the internal mechanism and moving parts (portafilter and filter) are stainless steel.
The water reservoir is made of food-grade polycarbonate and can hold up to 60 ml.
The wooden base adds a warm touch and provides stability on your countertop.
The Superkop espresso machine is built to last: each part serves a purpose, nothing is obsolete, and if necessary, the user can repair the machine.
With its 58mm portafilter and user-friendly mechanism, the Superkop allows you to quickly brew high-quality espresso.
The mechanism of the Superkop espresso machine is unique.
It employs a 1:40 lever action mechanism that applies increasing pressure through a series of six lever actions.
For a double espresso (or two singles), the manufacturer recommends using 18g of ground coffee, 60ml of water heated to 95°C, and an extraction time of 25 to 30 seconds.
- Fill your portafilter with ground coffee (do not overfill, or the water reservoir won't secure over it for extraction).
- Level the ground coffee and tamp it firmly and evenly, but not too hard.
- Secure the water reservoir onto the portafilter. Push it gently until you hear a slight click.
- Pour hot water into the reservoir up to the second marking (60ml). The ideal temperature for espresso is ±95°C.
- Secure the portafilter with reservoir into the Superkop machine (with the lever raised). To start extraction, lower the lever six times. Complete extraction should take between 25 and 30 seconds. The right rhythm is crucial for achieving the ideal extraction. Don't go too fast.
- When your extraction is complete, release the piston by pushing the lever upwards and remove the portafilter (with the reservoir on top).
Of course, you can experiment with your Superkop to make different coffee drinks: lattes, Americanos, flat whites, affogatos, espresso martinis, and more.
A milk frother will be the perfect accessory for making milk-based drinks.
The Superkop lever espresso machine must be placed on its base. All the tools are provided, and assembly is straightforward.
In the box, you will also find a double-spout portafilter, a single-filter for two cups, and the water reservoir.
The Superkop comes with a certificate of authenticity, and the machine features an engraved identification plate.
We recommend getting a grinder distribution tool and a tamper.
For maintenance, clean the portafilter, the water drip tray, and the drip tray grid with hot water. Dry before use.
Clean the water reservoir with hot water and dry it with a soft cloth. Do not disassemble the bottom, and do not put this reservoir in the dishwasher.
