Profitec Pro 700 Espresso Machine with Flow Control
Profitec Pro 700 Flow Control Overview
Designed by Profitec in collaboration with Whole Latte Love, the Profitec Pro 700 Flow Control is a response to the growing interest in manual flow profiling among home espresso enthusiasts. Profitec’s signature Pro 700 dual boiler espresso machine has been upgraded with a custom flow profiling device and stainless steel mushroom which replaces the traditional mushroom found in E61 groups. The remainder of the machine is untouched, featuring the 2019 Pro 700’s updated pressure gauges, steam and hot water knobs, and other subtle branded accents.
Features and Performance
Inside the machine, you’ll find the internal components to be incredibly well-organized, which is an often underappreciated touch that you don’t see in many other machines. Copper coils and water lines trace from one brass fitting to the next. Even the more delicate electronics are shielded from any humidity, neatly tucked away to one side of the machine.
All of this speaks to Profitec’s standards for quality engineering. As they like to say, “We endeavor to bridge the gap between tried and true professional technology and state-of-the-art engineering.”

I’ve been using this machine daily for about a month now. Overall, this is a very nice piece of equipment. My last machine was a high-end consumer grade machine. With this machine I am now able to brew and steam milk simultaneously. I estimate that this cuts the time it take me to make a pair of lattes by more than half. Moreover, the Pofitec Pro Read more about review stating Overall a great machine700 has a lot of steam power. This was a big change from my old machine, which I always felt was slightly under powered. Now, does this mean I get a better microfoam? No, not really. I feel like there is a fair amount of technique and learning the machine involved. But it does take a lot less time to steam a pitcher of milk.
I also get a lot of compliments on the machine. It’s very attractive and looks great on my counter.
I do not plan to plumb the machine. Filling the tank with the machine under the upper cabinets is a bit of a challenge. The machine is very heavy and the feet have a lot of friction on my counter. It’s very difficult to even slide it. What I ended up doing is getting a funnel attached to a tube. With a bit of weight on the end of the tube, it doesn’t flop around and works well to fill the machine without moving it.

This machine is magic! I was upgrading from a La Pavoini lever machine and landed on the Profitec after watching the videos and tutorials on Harfan Coffee website. There is truly no comparison to anything else I’ve used. After a bit of a learning curve with the flow control and timing I am pulling the best tasting shots I’ve ever created (and certainly beRead more about review stating Profitec Pro 700tter than what you can get commercially)! I also bought the Bestmax filter system which I’d highly recommend. I didn’t realize how much water I’d go through learning, testing, backflushing, etc. It’s well worth the money… not to mention the insurance form scale build up over time. Big shout out to the Harfan Coffee team for their work on the tutorials – those really made all the difference. I’ll admit, I was looking at a different machine initially but after seeing the build quality comparison, the Profitech was a no-brainer.

What a beautiful machine! Top quality in materials and construction in every way. I just pulled my first shots last night and will comment more later as I embark on the “learning curve.” This machine was shipped to the daughter of a good friend in the Seattle area and then put on a barge to Southeast Alaska. It arrived in perfect condition. ControRead more about review stating Initial Impressionsls are smooth and easy to operate. I am looking forward to working with flow control to bring out the nuances in my coffee.
Bravo Folks!

Love my new Profitec Pro 700! Can’t wait to experiment with the flow control. Ran about a pound through it so far and the shots are fantastic. Will have to learn the two hole steam tip , but that’s half the fun.

I cannot stress just how much I love this machine. As a newcomer to home expresso brewing , I have been completely amazed at how well this machine performs. I have nothing but positive things to say about harfan coffee. As a newbie I ran into typical 1st run problems, which mainly related to my inexperience with different device setrings.
