Dalla Corte is an Italian manufacturer of professional espresso machines founded in 2001 in Baranzate, near Milan, by Paolo Dalla Corte together with his father Bruno and sister Elsa. The company draws on the technical background of Bruno Dalla Corte, a technician at Cimbali starting in 1947 and later involved in developing the E61 for the Faema group in the 1950s, as well as steam-circulation technology for La Spaziale in the 1960s — an individual career that predates the founding of the company and should not be confused with the brand's own founding date. Dalla Corte is known for introducing multi-boiler technology with temperature control to a tenth of a degree, the connected DC System control suite (from 2010), and for being among the first to build machines with lead-free water-contact surfaces. Headquarters and production are in Baranzate (Milan).
