ACM Pratika — Compact Italian Domestic Espresso Machine

Overview

The ACM Pratika brings all the qualities of a professional Italian espresso machine into a beautifully compact package designed for the home. As the smallest model in ACM's domestic range, the Pratika is purpose-built for the demanding espresso lover who wants to enjoy a true café-quality coffee experience at home — without giving up valuable bench space.

Hand-crafted in Italy by ACM, the Pratika is equally at home in a residential kitchen as it is in small commercial settings such as bed & breakfasts, catering operations, or boutique hotels where daily coffee output doesn't quite justify a full-sized commercial machine. With a 1.5L stainless steel boiler, 2.5L removable water tank, programmable coffee dosing, and a robust stainless-steel and painted-steel body, the Pratika delivers genuine Italian espresso heritage in a single-group format. Easily removable side panels make routine maintenance simple — no need to remove the cups — and the machine is also available in a semiautomatic version and with a carved/rounded finishing option for a truly personalised look.
