Diletta Bello+ Espresso Machine

Add a touch of technology to your classic espresso setup with the Diletta Bello+ espresso machine. Following the popularity of the original Bello, the Bello+ adds PID temperature control, an integrated injection timer, programmable pre-infusion, and a low-power energy-saving mode – all designed to improve your injection consistency and overall machine availability. The PID controller gives you instant access to temperature changes at your fingertips and doubles as a jet timer when you lift the brew bar. The logic board behind the scenes also offers a programming option for pre-infusion (up to 10 seconds), as well as a new sub-boiling ECO mode that still seeks to save energy consumption while providing a faster recovery time for your next injection. These upgraded features didn't come at the expense of design, as the Bello+ retains the handmade steel quality and simple manual controls of the Diletta Bello.
