Feature Details

Steam Wand
The Evolution 2-step features an Autosteam system with an independent steam wand for precise and efficient frothing and steaming. Austosteam provides optimal steaming and frothing consistency, with a built-in temperature probe to automatically shut down when your milk reaches 160oF. The pivoting stainless steel frother will live up to the expectations of even the most experienced barista, but is easy enough to operate for novices.

Programming Options
6 dual functioning programmable buttons make this Franke espresso machine capable of producing any number of different coffee products. Accessing each button’s additional function is as simple as pressing the “shift” button, and the Evolution features an illuminated LCD that boldly displays each operation. Plus, Franke’s chip-card technology safeguards against data errors and allows the machine’s optimal settings to be restored at any time.

Grinder Capacity/Grind Settings
2 heavy-duty precision burr grinders provide nonstop performance, and with each hopper capable of holding 2.8 lbs of coffee, the Evolution can brew at its highest output without constant refills. Each hopper is made of strong, see-through plastic so users can check bean levels without disrupting operation.

Cup Warmer
Like our other Franke espresso machines, the Evolution 2-step features a stainless steel cup warmer to maximize temperature stability for each drink.
