The Quick Mill Aquila Plus is a precision-engineered Italian prosumer espresso machine built for the serious home barista who refuses to compromise on café-grade extraction. Crafted in Italy with a matte white stainless steel body and natural timber accents, the Aquila Plus combines a commercial-class rotary pump, 1.8-litre heat exchanger boiler, and PID temperature control to deliver consistent, repeatable espresso shot after shot. From your first morning double to back-to-back rounds for guests — this machine performs without hesitation. KEY FEATURES Heat Exchanger Boiler The 1.8-litre stainless steel HX boiler enables simultaneous espresso extraction and steam — no waiting between shots. Quick Mill's Instant Stability system has the machine brew-ready in approximately 12 minutes with thermal consistency maintained throughout. Commercial Rotary Pump Rock-solid pressure stability and dramatically quieter operation compared to vibratory pumps. Quick Mill's exclusive vibration-dampening system reduces pump noise by up to 40%. Supports direct mains water connection for plumbed-in setups. PID Temperature Control Dial in the exact brewing temperature for any roast profile. PID control monitors and adjusts temperature continuously, eliminating the swings common in thermostat-only machines. E61-Style Brew Group The thermosyphon-fed E61 group head maintains stable temperature at the puck for shot-to-shot consistency, while the exposed group acts as a heat sink to prevent extraction temperature spikes. OLED Display & Programmable Controls Programmable pre-infusion for gentle pre-wetting of the coffee bed Built-in shot timer for monitoring and repeatability Temperature offset adjustment Eco and standby modes for energy efficiency Dual Pressure Gauges Separate manometers for boiler pressure and pump pressure give complete visibility over machine performance. Joystick Controls & Anti-Burn Wands 360-degree rotating joystick valves provide smooth, precise control during milk texturing. Cool-touch, anti-burn steam and hot water wands are safe to handle immediately after use. Flexible Water Supply Use the internal 3-litre removable water tank or connect directly to mains — ideal for plumbed-in kitchen setups. WHO IS IT FOR? The Quick Mill Aquila Plus is built for the serious home barista who demands commercial-level consistency without the footprint of a full professional machine. It is equally at home in a small café or specialty coffee environment where reliability, quiet operation, and precision extraction are non-negotiable.
