Independent saturated boilers per group, programmable pre-infusion, and three genuinely different ways to end a shot.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhere the Strada S pulls ahead\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIndependent 1.3 L saturated boiler per group:\u003c\/strong\u003e each group has its own 800 W element and its own PID target. Two coffees, two brew temperatures, held simultaneously — the reason a multi-roaster bar specifies a Strada over a shared-boiler machine.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProgrammable pre-infusion per group:\u003c\/strong\u003e set a low-pressure saturation phase independently on each group to suit the grind and the roast. This is the single most effective tool against channelling in a busy bar.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThree dosing modes:\u003c\/strong\u003e PULSES for pulsed volumetric delivery, MASS for stopping on weight, and BREW RATIO for dispensing to a dry-dose-to-beverage ratio.
