Description
ECM Synchronika 25th Anniversary Edition Overview
The ECM Synchronika 25th Anniversary Edition is a dual boiler espresso machine released in a limited run to mark ECM’s 25th anniversary. It shares the internals of the standard Synchronika, including dual boilers, dual PIDs and a rotary pump, so the changes in this edition are about look and feel.
The housing is finished in full anthracite, with olive wood accents, steel pressure gauges and a custom badge that carries the machine’s unique production number. It is presented as a piece of ECM history.
The upgraded PID and discreet refinements raise what the machine can do, and 2 bar of steam power gives a surprising amount of kick when you are making a latte or cappuccino. The E61 brew group has stainless-steel internals and a single top cap, a cleaner look than other machines have, and the stainless internals resist calcium build-up so upkeep is more straightforward. When the machine is plumbed in, longer low-pressure pre-infusion can bring out the distinctive flavor notes of specialty coffee, which few machines can do.
