Overview

The Expobar Brewtus II arrived well packed in a very sturdy cardboard box that has a little

space for accessories to be added. Nice to see the use of shaped polystyrene as a packing

material and this machine is unlikely to get damaged in transit.

Externally the machine is well finished, uses high quality components and has a solid and

quality feel. The warmer tray is reasonably well sized but not as large as a Vivi, the machine

is quite tall, there is sufficient clearance under normal height kitchen wall cupboards (non-

standard height cupboards would almost certainly cause a problem) and when under

standard height cupboards, there is not much clearance to place items on the cup warmer

tray. The Expobar Brewtus II has a few rattles from the drip tray and cup tray area, but these

are easily remedied and the vibe pump is reasonably quiet when operating, certainly it is not

obtrusive.

The drip tray is very large and in complete contrast to some machines is properly finished at

the front. The lower part curves to follow the bodywork underneath and has an extra front

plate to clean up any exposed edges, very similar to the Zaffiro. The drip tray has been cold

formed and although this leaves it thinner than a steel plate welded drip tray, it gives it a much

neater look inside with rounded corners which makes cleaning much easier. It is also not too

heavy when full of water, important when it can hold nearly 2.5 litres.

As with some other machines the portafilter basket comes assembled and the spouts in the

right place. The standard equipment is a double portafilter (2 spouts) and a single and double

basket plus a rubber disk to insert when backflushing.

The boilers are a good size at 1.5 litres each and because it is a twin boiler machine (one for

steam and hot water, the other for Brew water) there is no problem with steaming, brew water

stability, or brewing and steaming at the same time. 1200w heating elements are more than

sufficient to maintain temperatures and give fast recovery times. It is a very strong steamer

and the single hole steam tip works very well, the recovery time after drawing water for an

americano is fast and of course has no real impact on brew water temperature.

Some of the things I loved were:

• The simple lever on the bottom of the case that operated a valve which meant you

could switch from the internal tank to mains water operation. Just a fabulous idea that

would come into its own if you needed to descale a machine that is plumbed into the

mains water supply.

• The water and steam wands are well placed, mounted on ball joints and the knobs

are a really nice size.

• The digital temperature controller was great (it comes from a refrigeration application,

but is a very neat size), the look of it suits the machine and it functions impeccably.

• Just how well it was put together on the inside, the Spanish have certainly done a

nice job on this machine, with a lot of attention to detail and a very clever and well

thought through design.

As always, there are a few minor changes that I would like to see, even for this machine

(which I love), but no quality issues. The changes are mostly design related so may be

difficult to resolve.
