BEZZERa QUALITY
BezzerA makes 80% of its parts, which are made to exceed commercial specifications.
Main Features
Programmable dosage control
In this version, the machine has five buttons to activate the pump for extraction.
The first four buttons can be programmed by volumetric amount, and the last button is for manual activation.
Commercial Rotary Pump
The machine uses a heavy-duty rotary pump, used similarly in Bezzera’s professional cafe machine range. Capable of demanding high-traffic usage.
Mini Commercial Machine
The Bezzera BZ16 with rotary pump is a commercial cafe machine reduced to tabletop size. The machine is power efficient, does not require special wiring, and could work out of the box using the standard 3-pin plug.
Faster start-up time and Thermal recovery
Among the fastest espresso machines in the professional range. Quicken the start-up time by almost half with a separate heater at the grouphead. Active heating maintains its thermal stability in any condition.
Dual Pressure Gauge
The machine has two essential pressure gauges to monitor the extraction and boiler’s real-time condition.
plumb in
The machine can be connected to a water network by plumbing so that the user doesn’t have to worry about refilling the water tank anymore.
2L Handmade COPPER boiler
A larger boiler improves the thermal stability in E61 groupheads, reducing overheating or flash boiling. Huge amount of available steam for frothing milk. Non-toxic with anti-microbial properties.
Heat Exchange Boiler
Produces espresso with better clarity, using only fresh water. Able to froth milk and extract espresso simultaneously without requiring a mode change for each task. Higher durability and serviceability
Heavy duty SPARES for long Hours Operation
In this Bezzera BZ16, it uses an industrial-grade pressure sensor that can withstand extended hours of operation.
This will be suitable for places like restaurants, offices or cafes that always require the machine on.
Designed for perfection
Bezzera’s engineering
Designed based on the science of coffee
All machines are designed to be homogenized with the Science of Coffee that Italy coffee institutes have heavily studied. The hydrodynamics are designed to achieve the target of achieving well-made espressos with the right parameters using the user’s least effort.
Built like Rolls Royce, Serviceable like Japanese Automobiles.
Bezzera’s designs its systems to achieve the correct thermal and pressure equilibrium by hydraulic designs instead of adding too many unnecessary electronic components, each with a finite lifespan. The more features, the more points of failures.
New features are stress tested and heavily studied to determine if they provide significant real-life benefits or could cause detrimental effects on the machine’s longevity before adding.
FAQ.
What is the difference between the Bezzera BZ10, BZ16 and Crema?
The machines are all using BZ grouphead and heat exchanger systems. All the machines can froth and brew coffee at the same time.

Bezzera BZ16 (Plumb only) | 12 minutes | 2 litres | Rotary | Joystick | Digital control | Yes | Not available | Yes |
What is the difference between a Vibration and a Rotary pump?
Vibration pumps have a duty limit 2:1. For every two minutes of work, It has to rest a minute. Most extractions are less than a minute. Over-hitting the limit is unlikely under normal usage. Vibration pumps are much cheaper to replace.
Rotary pumps do not have a duty limit and are the same pumps used in cafe machines. They are quieter and can stand against abuse of usage better.

More videos and Reviews on BZ16
The Bezzera BZ16 is designed for higher consumption with a bigger boiler and water tank. The dosage panel allows the user to program four of the buttons for extraction based on the volumetric amount. They are made with hardier components to withstand more demanding usage. The Bezzeras are among the fastest heat exchangers in the market. The boiler is ready in 9 minutes, grouphead in 15 minutes.
Bezzera has continuously tried to improve the engineering, components and the type of material used.
Every newer version is always better.
They are very serviceable, and it’s common to see decade-old machines still well performing and looking like new.
Warnings and points to note.
Be careful of hot surfaces, water and steam at all times.
Cleaning and usage guide can be found in the New starter’s guide
Always use water softeners to reduce limescale formation.
Avoid using any power adaptors or extensions to avoid an unstable power supply or overloading.
Do not leave the machine idling unnecessarily, especially for models without PID. Copper boilers reheat quickly, there’s no need to leave the machine always on.
Do not allow vibration pumps to activate for more than 2 minutes.
