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.
- Switchable: Can easily go from direct connect mode to 5-liter tank mode and vice versa.
- Open top water tank: For easy cleaning and water refilling. We do however recommend removing the water tank to fill it with water. Comes with a plastic cover with holes for the water line. A metal lid covers the water tank.
- Water softener: Already attached inside the reservoir.
Portafilter – 1 58mm dual spout with wood handle.
Filter baskets – 1-cup (~7g), 2-cup (~14g), & blind (for backflushing).
Keys – For programming.
Trip tray extender – For smaller espresso cups. Distance from the drip tray to the portafilter spout is ~4.25″. Distance from the extension to the portafilter spout is ~3.25″.
Power plug – Detaches completely from the machine for long-term storage.
Water line hose – For connecting to a direct water supply. Comes with fittings on both ends.
Drain hose – For draining the drip tray.

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.
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?

I was wondering if you have ever thought of how to make the Verve not heat up the boiler. I only use the Verve for espresso and would like to take the boiler out of the loop. Yes I know that it would be involved....but I am comfortable switching machines from 120VAC to 230VAC and back. This should be easy like jumping out the steam pressure loop...and jumping out the heating element? Or am I missing something?

The steam boiler has to stay in the loop for improved temperature stability as the steam boiler feeds hot water to the saturated grouphead.
i wanted to see if you could provide me the expected flow rate from the group head without coffee? when i run the machine without coffee, the flow looks slower than normal. pump pressure is good. i spoke with a roaster friend and they said there might be scaling in the flow restrictor? i looked at the parts diagram, but didnt see one. curious if there is a way to test that it providing the adequate flow before sending the unit to a tech.

Flow rates can depend upon different voltages within the same outlet. A 125 volt outlet may have a different flow rate than a 110 volt outlet.
If the flow rate seems slower, it may be your water softener or filter is clogged. The water softener should be recharged weekly (instructions on our web site) and replaced every 6 months. A filter should be changed minimum every 6 months.
Depending upon the age of the machine, there may be limescale in any of the solenoid valves and/orrestrictors. A descaling can be performed after the removal f the water softener or filter.
Hi Jim Regarding: """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.""""" Just wanted to know why you cannot have the app on display while operating the machine? I have been doing this with my iPad connected to the app for over a year now. I have my iPad come up to the Home Screen of the Verve during all operation. It is very useful when pulling shot to actually see pre-infusion and brewing timers. Also at start-up for 3 second purge of grouphead. Am I missing something?

Wowser! This must have been a recent change. Elektra confirmed that it could not operate with the key in the 3 o'clock position. We even reached out to the Elektra technicians who agreed. However, as many times have proven, we learn things from customers - good and bad. We have confirmed, you can leave the key in the 3 position, and the home screen will show the pre-infusion and extraction timer (including pre-infusion). We are unsure about the purge, so please email us a video.

It can get by within 30 minutes. We have not tested the machine for back to back shots. One reason is a test in one environment with different ambient temperatures, differing voltage that ranges from 108 to 125 volts in different places, the warm up time of the machine, the draft of air, and other influences can impact any dual boiler machine. Our competitors who publish their test results do get customers who complain that their results are different.

Hi, I have seen in your catalog two machines that interest me, the Elektra Verve and the VBM domobar super digital. I would like to know in your opinion which machine seems better to you. I see that the Elektra no longer has the classic e61 group but a saturated group with programmable pre-infusion. Which group do you think is better? Which coffee maker is more durable? What machine would you buy? Thank you very much again. Salu2 ; Diego

Sorry, these are questions we would not answer online. Both machines are very good, but the Verve is a newer model so difficult to get long term reliablity. Both make excellent espresso.
My Eletra Verve Espresso machine will not start. I have power and the water tank is full and I can hear the switch at the bottom under the water tank click. When I push the power button it turns red but that's it no pumps turn on or anything just silent. Just wondering if I'm missing something?

I was just wondering if it would be able to order some parts from the Elektra Verve premium package. I already have my machine but was wondering about the following parts.
Pro bottomless portafilter – stainless steel with beautiful wood handle.
Two Elektra Verve water softeners – prevents limescale from occurring in your espresso machine.
10 valve gaskets – 2 valve base, 2 valve seal, 2 valve shaft, 2 valve joint, and 2 valve bushing.
2 nozzle housing gaskets for the water valve.
2 filter gasket for the water valve.

As an option to the in tank water softener I am considering using the Ascaso DVA Water Softener – 8 liter, with bypass plumbed into the Elektra Verve - do you foresee any issues?

Inexpensive solution. Before ordering the water softener, we would need to check the connection between the Verve's included hose and the water softener.
Any update on the in tank water softener?

Is this machine quiet? Specifically do any metal bits rattle while the pump is on? I have a VBM machine purchased from you folks. Good machine but, very, very noisy in an unpleasant way. Stainless steel parts (cover and drain pan assembly) vibrate against each other when pump is active. Makes a terrible noise. Have tried installing cushions with only partial success. Interested int he Elektra Verve but, for the price, I now want a relatively quiet machine, as well as one that makes a great espresso. Thx

Unfortunately, there 'can' be some rattling as there is some metal to metal contact. The rotary pump is louder than some others, but it is a tradeoff for the higher quality in the cup this machine typically produces. We will have more videos in the near future.
The machine was working well until a few days ago.
The water tank is refilled to the top.
The espresso extraction still works but the water temperature is not quite hot.
Both the steamer and hot water dispense do not function, and the hot water gauge (see attached photo) is at zero, previously the red was at 1 – 1.5 when ready.

In looking at the reviews - it seems the wi-fi connection can move in and out on your device. If you aren't changing temp or infusion (or any other required parameters) - are you able to operate your machine without your phone at all, or is a wifi connection required to operate the machine and pull a shot/steam some milk etc? Thank you.

We had one customer with a Wi-Fi issue so far. There is no phone application. The machine has its own Wi-Fi which you can connect your phone to. Once connected, you can change settings and then get off the WiFi. The machine still operates just fine.
For the one customer with Wi-Fi issues, the machine is here in our shop. The only time the Wi-Fi disconnects is when the mobile phone goes into sleep mode. This customer also had another problem with a grouphead error code. The problem was it was leaking water through the group. We had asked the customer to run white vinegar through the grouphead and he refused. After running vinegar through the grouphead, the dripping stopped and the grouphead error code has not returned. Unfortunately, the customer thought it was a 'bad apple' machine, but it has been running in our shop for the past 4 days (including weekends as we come in to catch up).

A The settings automatically are displayed on the phone when connected to the machine's Wi-Fi network. The machine acts as its own Wi-Fi host, and provides settings for preinfusion, water temperature, and night-time sleep mode. There are also settings to reset various counters, such as cleaning and water softener replacement. Turn the key on the front, connect to the machine's Wi-Fi, and then the rest is automatic.

Sorry, we are unable to answer many questions at this time, because the finalized production version has not been determined. Any answers would only be speculation.
A According to Java Jim in the video at 2:02 ... you can program preinfusion from 0 to 20 seconds. Just a guess, but because you can set it as long as 20 seconds that would more or less indicate it should also be available on via reservoir. Most high end prosumer machines that use line pressure via a plumbed unit limit the preinfusion time to ranges of less than 10 seconds.

Sorry, due the situation in Italy, the Verve will most likely be available in 3rd or 4th quarter this year. Yes, it is 58mm baskets. Sorry, we are unsure about the amperage until we have more information from Elektra.
