Key Features and What They Mean
8.3 Liter Copper Heat Exchange Boiler
There’s so much power to brew and steam at the same time that you’ll never have to worry about running out when the customer line is out the door again. Since the heat exchange boiler is made of copper, it’s antimicrobial—cleanliness is important!
Stainless Steel Body
High-quality, durable, and nice to look at, the stainless steel casing adds a professional touch to your business or home kitchen.
Thermosiphon System
Circulating hot water throughout the brew group, the thermosiphon maintains optimal brewing temperature to help you pull consistent shots.
Programmable Volumetric Dosing
Anyone can make espresso with programmed buttons as easy as these. Once the desired espresso volume is set, the machine will deliver shots at that volume for every barista at the touch of a button.
Manual Dosing Switch
Whether the volumetric buttons aren’t cutting it or you want the prestige of handcrafting the espresso, the manual switch lets you override the programming function and tailor shots to your specifications on demand.
Adjustable Water Temperature
It’s not uncommon for customers to ask for a few ice cubes to be thrown in a piping hot Americano or tea. This machine gives you the option of adjusting the water temperature instead of having to dump in ice cubes that splash scalding water on your hands.
Boiler and Pump Pressure Gauges
Checking these pressure gauges gives you all the information you need to get the most out of your brewing and steaming.
2 Cool-Touch Steam Wands
Not one, but two steam wands let you switch sides. If you’re a lefty or a righty, you get to choose. Because these wands have cooler surface temperatures, the chance of accidentally burning yourself touching them is greatly reduced, which makes everyone happy.
Auto Backflush Program
Not looking forward to how much time it takes to clean the machine when the day is over? Using the automated backflushing system gives you the chance to walk away from the machine while it self-cleans and wrap up other items that need your attention.
Adjustable Drip Tray Height
Perfect for businesses with tall drink cups, the choice between a longer or shorter distance from the drip tray to the group head goes beyond convenience.
2 Way Power Switch
This power switch allows you to turn on the machine and fill the boiler without activating the heating element to protect it and avoid overheating. Pretty smart.
Roomy Cup Warmer with Rail
There’s a ton of storage space for your cups on top of the machine, and it will warm them up to make hot drinks stay hot. Built with a protective rail, the warming tray also keeps cups safe and sound on top of the machine.
Configurations
110V Boxer 1 Group
Appropriate for home users as well as a lower volume business like an office with a small staff, the 110V configuration scales down what would otherwise be an unnecessary amount of power. But don’t worry—it sacrifices not one iota of functionality.
220V Boxer 1 Group
The 220V configuration is the way to go for commercial usage and busier locations. If your business can sustain the power requirements, it’s the best version for higher volume use.

Common Questions and Answers
Q: What does the thermosiphon in the Boxer 1 Group Volumetric do?
A: The thermosiphon is part of the machine’s advanced heating system. It works to maintain temperature stability in the group head for perfect espresso shots all day, every day.
It accomplishes this by keeping hot water circulating in the brew group. This way, when you go to pull a shot, the temperature at the group is optimal, something that doesn’t necessarily occur without a mechanism like the thermosiphon in place.
As you may already be aware, the right temperature is crucial when it comes to brewing espresso. If it’s not in the correct range, your shots may not come out right or taste the way you want them to.
Q: What are the pressure gauges on the Boxer 1 Group Volumetric for?
A: In a big way, the pressure gauges help you use the espresso machine more effectively. They show you the pressure in the boiler and the pressure connected to the pump during the brew process.
If you want to know exactly when your machine is at temperature to brew espresso and steam milk after you’ve turned it on in the morning, check the boiler pressure gauge. You should see it settle in the green area (just think green for “go”).
When you’re pulling a shot, keeping an eye on the pump pressure gauge can give insight into what’s going on if the pressure isn’t building correctly. Often, it has to do with how you’re tamping or an element of your brew ratio.
If it’s not that you need to tamp with a little more or less pressure, it may be that you need to add more or less ground coffee to the portafilter. By adjusting your levels and rechecking the pump pressure gauge, you can really get your process down.
Q: What is the difference between manual and volumetric dosing in the Boxer 1 Group Espresso Machine?
A: The basic difference between the dosing options on the Boxer 1 Group Volumetric is how much control you have over the extraction process.
Using the volumetric buttons, you won’t need to stop the brew cycle. The machine will intelligently stop it when the correct espresso volume has been reached.
But with manual dosing, you’ll need to tell the machine when to start and stop brewing. This is great if you have a specific extraction recipe in mind and you want to try it out.
Between the two different controls, you have your pick of automated consistency and hand-guided extraction anytime you like.
