Strong performance, rugged design

Beverage variety in the best quality

Patented technology for the best aroma over time! The stainless steel brew group ensures the highest coffee enjoyment - and ACS® automatically ensures that the coffee quality remains constant. TopFoam also offers stable milk foam for special taste experiences.

The strengths of the CT8

High performance without compromise

High-performance grinder

Up to two fast high-performance grinders guarantee precision work, a long service life and relaxed service intervals. With the two grinders, the grind can be optimally adjusted to espresso or Schümli beans.

Steam Control Plus

Two heating circuits for hot water and steam and a 400-volt voltage make it possible: brew espresso and froth milk perfectly at the same time with the separate Steam Control Plus milk frother.

Clean in Place (CIP®)

It couldn't be easier: the fully automatic cleaning of the brewing and milk system directly in the machine. Nothing has to be removed or disassembled. A clean thing, fast, safe and hygiene-certified.
