Nuova Simonelli - Aurelia II 2 Group
The Nuova Simonelli Aurelia is the official espresso machine of the World Barista
Championship.
The Aurelia is a technologically advanced piece of equipment that was
designed to solve the five major problems of espresso machines. Nuova
Simonelli’s engineering department used it’s 101 years of experience,
several universities, and the largest ever research and development
budget ever for a traditional espresso machine to solve these five
problems. The five problems identified were:
1. Producing consistently good espresso was difficult and susceptible
to human error.
2. Traditional espresso machines were not ergonomic for baristi and could cause repetitive
injuries.
3. The steaming of milk was too slow, cumbersome, and the bottleneck of coffee operations.
4. Many espresso machines were unreliable, difficult to repair, and had a short useful life
expectancy.
5. Machines consumed high amounts of energy, which made them ecologically unfriendly
