Dalla Corte Icon Espresso Machine
What makes an espresso unforgettable? A rich, balanced taste built on an impeccable extraction. The Dalla Corte Iconwas engineered specifically for businesses with high turnover and demanding peak hours, delivering reliable, repeatable results in the cup without asking baristas to compromise on quality — even during the busiest rush. Available in 2-group and 3-group configurations, the Icon is built to scale with your café's volume.
At the heart of the Icon is Dalla Corte's patented multi-boiler technology, with independent brewing units per group that hold temperature to within 0.1 degrees throughout extraction. Because the boiler and brewing units operate completely independently, individual groups or the main boiler can be switched off when not in use, meaningfully reducing energy consumption and operating costs. The Icon also rounds out its tech stack with three integrated smart systems: a Grinder Control System that auto-corrects grind size and connects directly to Dalla Corte's DC One and DC Two grinders, a Milk Control System that automates steam wand temperature for consistently smooth microfoam, and an Online Control System that lets managers remotely monitor groups, schedule cleanings, and track dose consistency across one or multiple locations.
Beyond performance, the Icon makes a statement behind the bar. Designed in partnership with Emo Design Studio, its faceted stainless-steel shell and customizable back panel — available in a range of RAL colors and finishes, including options for a personal logo — let cafés make the machine their own.
