Sanremo Cube

Cube is Sanremo Coffee Machines' most compact model: a 1.9-litre heat-exchanger boiler in AISI 316 stainless steel, paired with a 1.8-litre internal tank and the option to draw water from either the tank or the mains. The brew group is a thermosiphon unit with mechanical, not electronic, pre-infusion, driven by the group's own spring. Dimensions stated in the official catalogue: 33.6 × 32.3 × 37.1 cm at 27.7 kg, drawing 1500W at 230V (1300W at 120V for the US market).
The pump on this base version is a vibration pump, according to the official product page; Sanremo's general catalogue also mentions a high-performance 54 L/h volumetric pump for the Cube line, a figure that appears to refer more specifically to the R variant (treated as a separate entry in this catalogue). The display is digital, and WiFi connectivity lets the machine's status — remote on/off, tank level, shot time — be managed from an app, alongside daily and weekly consumption statistics.
Sanremo does not state PID temperature control for this version, nor portafilter diameter, operating pressure or heat-up time. The A and B style variants, which differ only in side-panel finish and not in technical specification, share the same body and the same set of included accessories.
