![]() The portafilter is really something else, it is a heavy and nicely machined piece of gear. The Classika is a nice value, opening the box I found a double spouted portafilter, cleaning brush, a plastic tamper, single and double shot baskets, a blind filter for back flushing, and a few misc things like a manual. It isn’t much smaller than other variants, but will definitely save some space. The Classika is a narrower prosumer machine making it ideal for small kitchens, or for people that don't want a huge espresso machine on their counter. A brew pressure gauge, indication lights, switches, PID controller, and a large but attractive ECM badge. The Classika lives up to its name with classic E61 styling including polished stainless body, and a chrome plated grouphead prominently displayed on the front of the machine. The ECM Classika II PID is a nicely priced more introductory prosumer espresso machine. Seeing more and more companies coming out with a more economical PID machines is exciting. I am a huge fan of PID machines as they use a digital probe to monitor the boiler temperature instead of a pressurestat. My daily espresso machine is a Rocket Giotto PID.
