Profitec pro 500 PID paired with an ECM S-Automatik 64.

Excited to finally have a legit and dependable setup, had always bought broken machines and fixed them up (to varying levels of success) before this.

Any other Profitec users out there?

    A lot will come down to supply and where you are located (country).

    ECM and Profitec come from the same company and are built to a very high standard (German build from original Italian heritage).

    It’s pretty easy to get parts and information online.

    If you have the money and a decent grinder you can’t go wrong with them.

      I agree with this, I prioritized features that I was looking for (PID, shot timer, flow control, E61, hot water spout, heat exchange) and that really only left a few options that within our budget. There’s a few machines from Rocket, Lelit, and Diletta that checked off a lot of boxes and were in the running but servicability, component quality, and tbh the utilitarian styling pushed me to this machine.
