The Domobar Junior is the middle machine of VBM's Domobar line, designed for anyone who wants a good balance between coffee and milk: a heat-exchanger machine with the café E61 group and a 58 mm portafilter. A single boiler makes the steam and heats the brew water, so milk can be steamed while the coffee runs.
The display sets the brew temperature degree by degree and the steam power to suit your hand; ECO mode lowers the temperature when the machine sits idle. The tank lifts out and has a level sensor: fill it in place or take it to the sink. The drip tray is scratch-resistant synthetic material and goes in the dishwasher.
The box holds two portafilters, single and double, and a blind basket. The side panels attach with magnets and change without tools, in seven colours. It is for someone who wants a café group in the kitchen with temperature under control; like every E61 group, it needs switching on in good time.

Seven grams, twenty-five seconds, twenty-five millilitres: Italian espresso has a written specification, and this is it.
The same dose as an espresso, less water in the cup. No institutional source fixes its volume — so here you will only find what is documented.
25 ml of espresso and 100 ml of steamed milk, in a 150–160 ml cup. The cappuccino has a specification too.
An espresso and a stain of milk. How much milk, exactly? No source declares it — and we do not invent it.
An espresso lengthened with hot water. The amount of water is set by no standard: it changes from country to country and from bar to bar.
Double espresso, sugar syrup and ice in a shaker. It has no specification: it has a house recipe.
