Profitec Pro 300 Overview
Profitec continues to impress with its thoughtful engineering. The Pro 300 immediately stands out with its sleek, polished stainless steel body. Up front, it features a steam pressure gauge and a Gicar PID controller, giving users instant feedback on steam pressure and temperature. The PID keeps temperature stable within one degree of the set point and includes a built-in shot timer for more accurate extractions. Its rapid heat-up time ensures the machine is ready to brew in no time.
Features and Performance
From the start, the Pro 300 is intuitive and delivers consistent results.
Digging into its performance, our tests showed the machine heats up in roughly 10 minutes—thanks to the brew boiler positioned directly above the group head, which absorbs heat during the warm-up process. For energy savings, the steam boiler can be deactivated when not needed. As for steam performance, it's solid, and the dual-hole steam wand tip provides quick, even frothing with ample pressure.
Internally, the Pro 300 is built to last, with copper tubing and braided stainless steel lines. The vibration pump is also mounted on rubber supports, minimizing noise during use.
Its special Fast Heat Up cycle briefly overheats the boiler, accelerating the warm-up to around 8.5 minutes. A cooling flush brings the water temperature down, efficiently warming the group head and portafilter for consistent brewing temperatures.
Why Choose the Pro 300?
If you’re in the market for a dual-boiler espresso machine that offers excellent performance without breaking the bank, the Profitec Pro 300 is a standout choice. It's fast, powerful, and delivers exceptional value for its price.
