Astoria Tempesta Espresso Machine (2GR)

The Astoria Tempesta is the official coffee machine of the World Barista Championship—a clear statement of its uncompromising performance, precision, and innovation. Designed at the forefront of modern espresso technology, Tempesta represents a major leap forward in professional coffee equipment.

Developed in close collaboration with three internationally acclaimed competition baristas, the Tempesta is a fully equipped multi-boiler espresso machine engineered for absolute control and transparency during extraction. Advanced features include live graphical displays of pressure and flow rate for every shot, independent brew boilers with PID temperature control, and powerful cool-touch steam wands built for demanding service environments.

Despite its competition pedigree, the Tempesta is equally at home in commercial cafés. Its intelligent Energy Saver technology supports three operational modes: Comfort Mode (always on), Weekly Programming with automated standby periods, and a self-learning Eco Mode that automatically adapts standby behavior based on real usage patterns over time.

Operational and sustainability insights are built directly into the system. Energy consumption data and usage statistics—including drinks prepared, water volume consumed, and cleaning cycles performed—can be exported to assist café owners with performance analysis and operational optimization.

Ergonomics play a central role in the Tempesta’s design. Extra-long, cool-touch steam wands offer exceptional articulation, allowing baristas greater freedom of movement and improved visibility for customer engagement. Adjustable machine feet and drip tray height further enhance stability, workflow efficiency, and visual presentation.

Every element of the Tempesta has been purpose-engineered to support flawless extraction, refined workflow, and barista confidence—ensuring each cup reflects the skill of the operator and the quality of the coffee.
