How does the Smart Water Technology work in the Aurelia Wave Digit?
Smart Water Technology is an advanced water management system that ensures consistent water quality for optimal espresso.
As water plays a crucial role in espresso production, this technology is essential. It monitors key water parameters and notifies the barista of any changes, keeping them informed.
This provides confidence in water quality while reducing maintenance costs and the need for filter cartridge replacements.
In essence, it enhances quality control in high-performance espresso machines.
What is the soft infusion system in the Aurelia Wave Digit?
Soft infusion is Nuova Simonelli's pre-infusion system that ensures balanced extraction with the Digit.
When brewing espresso, the system initially releases water without pressure into the coffee bed, before pressurized water follows.
This helps settle the coffee, reducing the risk of channeling and ensuring even water distribution.
With pre-infusion, the espresso has a fuller flavor and highlights unique subtleties that might otherwise be missed.
What is the difference between volumetric and manual dosing in the Aurelia Wave Digit?
When using the volumetric dosing buttons, the machine automatically delivers the correct espresso volume. Simply press the button to start the extraction.
Volumetric dosing is user-friendly, making it suitable for baristas of all skill levels. It ensures consistent shot volumes, even with different operators or during shift changes.
In contrast, manual dosing is entirely user-controlled. Baristas press the button to start and stop extraction, allowing for more flexibility to create any shot, such as a ristretto or long shot, without programming, making it easier to accommodate customer requests.
How do I use the bar pump gauge on the Aurelia Wave Digit to improve my espresso results?
Understanding this gauge helps you achieve the ideal brew ratio.
The brew ratio refers to the amount of coffee used for an espresso shot compared to the resulting volume.
Monitoring the gauge shows if the machine is brewing at the right pressure (usually around nine bars).
If the pressure is off, adjusting your brew ratio may help—experiment with different amounts of coffee in the portafilter.
Sometimes, tweaking tamping pressure or grinder settings is enough. This gauge provides valuable insight into your espresso process.
Machine Options
Gooseneck Wand
Like the EasyCream and Auto-Steam Wands, the Gooseneck Wand froths milk for the barista. It detects the milk's temperature as the barista moves the pitcher to aerate and texture the milk. The wand automatically shuts off when the milk reaches the ideal temperature, preventing overheating.
EasyCream Wand
The EasyCream Wand froths milk to a velvety texture, allowing baristas to control temperature and consistency.
By pressing a button, steaming begins, with the wand balancing steam, air, and vapor.
It creates a swirling motion to heat the milk, automatically turning off once the ideal temperature is achieved. Perfectly frothed milk, effortlessly.
Auto-Steam Wand
The Auto-Steam Wand replaces the manual steam handle with a button, automatically texturing the milk.
The barista simply places the wand in the milk, and the Auto-Steam Wand creates perfect microfoam effortlessly.
Smart Wands
Integrating a Smart Wand into your Nuova Simonelli Aurelia Wave Digit effortlessly brings automated consistency to milk steaming.
