Overview
ECM Elektronika II Profi HX Switchable Espresso Machine
The ECM Elektronika II Profi has the same quality features as the Technika such as an E61 grouphead and rotary vane pump. In addition, the Elektronika has a row of programmable buttons that dose out a preset amount of water. You can also connect to a direct water line so you won’t have to constantly fill a water tank.

Features
Electronic controls
Automatic controls: There are 4 buttons that allow you to make espresso. Each of these buttons is reprogrammable to your own settings.
Semi-automatic control: In addition to the automatic buttons, there is also a semi-automatic dosing button.
Heat exchange system
Stainless steel, insulated: The boiler is made of stainless steel which is less susceptible to limescale. Typically stainless steel boilers do not retain their heat as well as copper or brass boilers. This machine compensates that by being wrapped with insulation.
Pull a shot & steam milk at the same time: Steam is always readily available. Therefore there is no wait time going from coffee to steam mode. Works well if entertaining a small group of people.
Separate pressure gauges
Steam pressure gauge: Located on the left. Measures from 0 to 3 bar. Optimal pressure is between 0.8 and 1.1.
Brew pressure gauge: Located on the right. Measures from 0 to 16 bar. Optimal pressure is between 8 and 10.
E-61 grouphead
Constantly heated: Hot water circulates from the heat exchanger through the grouphead and back to keep the grouphead and your portafilter nice and hot. This keeps the grouphead at a constant, stable temperature compared to other groupheads that have a built-in heating element.
Rotary vane pump
Quiet operation: Rotary pumps are necessary for direct connect capable machines since vibration pumps cannot handle the incoming water pressure. The main benefit that you will experience is that they are a lot quieter.
Adjustable: No need to remove the body panel to access. The adjustment screw is accessible underneath the machine.
Switchable from a water tank to direct water connection
Easy transition: After hooking up the water line (included) to your machine, all you need to do is activate a switch. The switch is behind the drip tray on the left side. Turn to the “1” position.
Steam & hot water wands
Joystick handles: Easily pull in any direction for quick activation. Both joysticks will also lock in any position for hands-free operation.
Multi-directional: Allows for more movement and flexibility.
“No burn”: Both wands are insulated to allow you to touch anywhere on the arm. However, the tip and connection are still hot. Please also note that after very long periods of steaming or pouring hot water, the arm will be too hot to touch. We recommend to only touch the rubber grips on each wand.
2-hole steam tip: Allows for a slow gradual build-up of microfoam.
Accessories included
Portafilters: Single spout portafilter and a dual spout portafilter. Both handles match the style of the grouphead lever and are ergonomically designed with an angle for easy operation to lock into the grouphead.
Filter baskets: 1-cup filter basket which holds approximately 7 grams. 2-cup filter basket which holds approximately 14 grams. Blind filter basket which you can use for backflushing. All baskets are 58 mm in diameter.
Tamper: Solid 58mm tamper. No need to upgrade.
Cleaning brush: Used for cleaning the grouphead. Ergonomically designed with an angle for easier usage. The neck has special ridges to keep hot water from dripping to your hand.
Hose: Stainless steel braided. For connecting to a water line.
Instruction manual: Written in both German and English.

Notes
General Espresso Machine Notes/Warnings:
- Upon first use (tank/reservoir models): On the initial start-up (or after a long period of non-use), it is important to make sure the pump is removing water from the tank. When the machine is powered on, you will hear the pump running. After 5 seconds, squeeze the in-line hose in the tank (usually the longest hose, has a particle filter attached). if you hear a different sound, this means the pump is working correctly. If not, immediately power down the machine and contact us. For more information, visit this page General Manual Pump Priming.
- Electrical: To avoid electrical damage to this espresso machine which is not considered a manufacturer's defect, please acquire and install a single-outlet surge suppressor rated at 1080 joules or higher. Without the recommended surge suppressor, the espresso machine can be damaged at the power switch, the electronics, the heating element, the pressurstat, or the wiring inside. For more information, visit this page Power Protection.
- Water: To increase the useful life and not damage your espresso machine, please use softened water. Softened water is water without calcium and magnesium, but still has other minerals for espresso extraction. Do not use distilled, purified, or reverse osmosis water as these types of water create oxidation with the metals and cause the same damaging effects as limescale. For more information, visit this page Water Choice.
- Descaling: We do not recommend descaling unless there is an issue with the espresso machine. Too much descaling can eat away at the metals and gaskets inside an espresso machine. As a preventative measure, we recommend using softened water as explained in the bullet point above.
- Backflushing: This procedure of cleaning the grouphead will need to be performed from time to time. For more information, visit this page Espresso Machine Backflush – Why 50?
