Pre-infusion system
A short wetting phase before full pressure saturates the puck evenly and prevents channelling during extraction. The result is a sweeter, more consistent espresso.
/brands/acm/hero.webm · /brands/acm/hero.jpgPrisma, Evolve, Rounder, Homey and Pratika — one, two and three group machines, designed, built and assembled in Italy.
The same technologies underpin every model — from the entry-level Rounder to the premium Prisma.
A short wetting phase before full pressure saturates the puck evenly and prevents channelling during extraction. The result is a sweeter, more consistent espresso.
A boiler with anti-oxidant treatment and an internal heat exchanger, plus thermosiphonic heating of the brewing groups — temperature holds steady even at peak service.
Electronic temperature control and programmable doses for coffee and hot water. An automatic group wash cycle cuts daily maintenance down to a few minutes.
Automatic Coffee Machines Srl produces in Cairate near Milan, in the heart of the Italian espresso industry. Every machine is built from Italian-made components — from the copper boiler to the chromed brass dispensing group.
/brands/acm/made-in-italy.jpgACM's philosophy is simple: the machine should always be ready to work for you. Hence the value for money, the reliability and the quick servicing — side panels come off without tools, so routine maintenance takes minutes rather than hours.
/brands/acm/design.jpgThree two-group configurations that cover most of what a bar or coffee shop needs.
/brands/acm/products/prisma-a2gr.pngThe flagship series, with a multifunction display and PID temperature control. Soft curves and sharp edges — a machine you notice from the door.
/brands/acm/products/evolve-a2gr.pngDigital shot timer, joystick levers and LED lighting over the working area. Simple but versatile — also available in the darker Dark finish.
/brands/acm/products/rounder-s2gr.pngThe same technical core at the most affordable entry into ACM. Semi-automatic, with a compact C version for narrower counters.
The difference between a good and a great espresso is repeatability. Thermosiphonic group heating, a copper boiler with a heat exchanger and pre-infusion keep the extraction temperature steady from the first cup to the two hundredth. Programmable doses mean every shift brews the same recipe, and the height-adjustable drip tray takes both an espresso cup and a tall glass.

Design, manufacturing and assembly all in Italy.
Prisma, Teknica, Rounder, Rounder UP, Evolve and Evolve Dark.
From a single group to three, plus compact C versions.
The two most common hospitality scenarios — and the machines that cover them.
/brands/acm/solution-volume.jpgTwo or three groups, a large boiler and automatic dosing. Prisma and Evolve keep the pace through the rush without a temperature drop or a wait for steam.
/brands/acm/solution-compact.jpgA single group, or a compact two-group C version. Rounder, Homey and Pratika deliver professional extraction even where the counter is barely half a metre wide.
The digital extraction timer shows the seconds for every dose, so the barista sees immediately whether the grind is too fine or too coarse. PID control holds the set temperature without swings, while LED lighting over the working area and a backlit keypad keep everything readable even in a dim bar.
/brands/acm/precision.jpg/brands/acm/line-professional.jpgStainless and painted steel, a chromed brass dispensing group, a safety valve and automatic boiler refilling. Versions: S (semi-automatic), A (automatic), L (lever) and C (compact). Colours: matte black, matte white, matte red and stainless steel, depending on the series.
/brands/acm/line-domestic.jpgA professional group in a domestic format: a 2.5 l tank, a 1.5 l stainless steel boiler and 1100 W. Homey comes with a lever and an optional shot timer, Pratika in semi-automatic and automatic versions — for a B&B, an office or a home kitchen.
From the domestic format to three groups — every series in one place.
/brands/acm/categories/prisma.jpgThe flagship with a PID display, in automatic and lever versions, 2 and 3 groups.
/brands/acm/categories/evolve.jpgShot timer, joystick levers and an LED working area. 1, 2 and 3 groups, compact included.
/brands/acm/categories/rounder.jpgThe most affordable way into ACM. Semi-automatic and automatic, from one group to three.
/brands/acm/categories/home.jpgDomestic and semi-professional formats for B&Bs, offices and small venues.
A repeatable espresso through the whole shift.
Coffee after service, with no queue and no temperature drop.
From the lobby bar to a compact machine in the suite.
Professional extraction on a small counter.
The questions that come up most before choosing a machine.
For a bar serving up to roughly 150 coffees a day, a two-group machine is enough — Rounder, Evolve or Prisma. Above 200 a day we recommend three groups, for the larger boiler and the extra working surface. Send us your estimated daily volume and the available counter width and we will propose a configuration.
S is semi-automatic — the barista stops the shot manually. A is automatic, with programmable volumetric doses, so every coffee is the same volume no matter who pulls it. L is the lever (levetta) version, with a mechanical feel and a classic look. All three use the same group, the same boiler and the same pre-infusion system.
The C version fits two groups into a narrower body with a smaller boiler: the Rounder S/2gr C is 56 cm wide instead of 66 cm, with the same dispensing group. It is the answer for counters that are short on space, with no compromise on extraction quality.
Yes. Hard water is the main cause of boiler and group failures, and the fastest way to void a warranty. We recommend a softener or a filtration system with every machine and can include it in the same quote.
