Features
Of course, this machine gets better! You can use the direct Wi-Fi connection on your smartphone for many different settings. To learn how to activate the Wi-Fi connection for iPhone and Android, view the instructions in the images on top!
Use an app on your smartphone to control settings (brewing temperature, pre-infusion time) before the brewing process.
NOTE: To get into Wi-Fi mode, the keylock needs to be turned on to the 3 o’clock position. To turn off Wi-Fi mode, stop the phone app, and get into brew mode, the key needs to be turned to the 12 o’clock position.
Please note that the phone app has to be closed AND the Wi-Fi connection has to be terminated before the espresso extraction can start. This means the phone app is not live time during the espresso extraction process.
To point out a change in Elektra’s standard stainless steel design. The Elektra Verve has a stainless steel body with wooden side panels, knobs, and a portafilter.
A rotary pump, dual scale pump pressure gauge/steam boiler pressure manometer, and a saturated brew group integrated coffee boiler.
The unit consists of a brass coffee boiler and a high-volume stainless steel steam boiler managed by a pressurestat. The 4-hole steam tip helps froth milk faster and easier.

Notes
- Top Panel: As we test each Elektra Verve, we always find some marks/scratches on the top panel. This is due to the cup warming grills and unfortunately are unavoidable.
- As of August 12, 2020, Elektra has decided to start with only one wood option. Other wood options may be available in the future, but there are no expected time frames.
- The motherboard battery is a CR1225.
- Natural Wood Product Disclaimer: Wood components used on espresso machines are made from natural materials, so variations in grain, color, texture, and finish are normal. Minor imperfections, knots, and differences in appearance are inherent characteristics of genuine wood and are not considered defects. These natural variations do not affect the product’s functionality, durability, or performance. Each wood piece is unique, making every product one of a kind.
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?
