What is inside
Most home machines get three things wrong. Here is what we do instead.

Brewing pressure: 9 bar
Most use 15 bar

The same pressure café machines use. More than that makes espresso bitter.

The same espresso a café makes, from a machine 20 to 32 cm wide.
Basket width: 58 mm
Most use 51 mm

The coffee sits flatter, so the water runs through it evenly.
Warm-up: 40 s
Most use 10 min

On the One. The Duo takes 45 seconds and the Pro 90.
2 mm brushed steel panels and an oiled walnut handle that darkens where you hold it.

The One, the Duo and the Pro all brew at 9 bar and use the same 58 mm basket. Only the milk side changes.

Three models
All three make the same espresso. They differ in milk, and in how many drinks you can make back to back.

Reviews
Written by people who bought one. We publish all of them.
Nove Duo“Flat whites like the bar downstairs.”
“Four of us, four different coffees. It steams the milk for one while the next shot is pulling, so nobody waits.”
Nove One“Small, and it pulls a proper shot.”
“Ordered on a Monday and it was making coffee by Thursday. Shipping was free and the box was packed properly.”
Nove One“Still like new after two years.”
“Forty settings sounded like too many. I found mine in the first week and have not touched it since.”
Nove Pro“Four lattes before the guests sat down.”
“The wand is strong, so my first jugs went everywhere. By Sunday I was pouring hearts. Give yourself a few days.”
Nove Pro“The walnut gets better.”
“A new bag lands just as the last one runs out. I paused it for August and it started again in September.”
Nove Duo“Heavy, which is the point.”
“It warms up while I take the cups down. Then it is coffee for two and milk at the same time.”
Hi, it's the two of us at Nove.
One of us ran a bar near Porta Palazzo. The other fixed its machines. The one we wanted did not exist, so we drew it on a till roll and built the first ten by hand.
Nove means nine. Espresso needs 9 bar of pressure. Less and the coffee tastes thin, more and it tastes bitter. Every machine we make holds nine, and the gauge on the front shows it.
The body is 2 mm steel and the handles are oiled walnut, so they darken where you hold them. The portafilter is 58 mm, the size cafés use.
A machine should outlast its warranty. Every part has a number, the panels come off with one screwdriver, and we keep parts in Turin for every machine we have sold.
From Turin, with nine bar.

FAQ
If yours is not here, write to us.
If you drink it black, the One. If you drink lattes or flat whites, the Duo. If two or more people at home want milk drinks at the same time, the Pro. Pick wrong and swap within 30 days.
The machine, a portafilter with two baskets, a tamper and the power lead. The portafilter is the handle that holds the coffee. The Duo and the Pro also come with a milk jug.
Not if you order your beans ground. But ground coffee goes stale in a few days, so a grinder gives you better shots. Ours matches the machine, and any grinder with an espresso setting works.
Tell us which model you want instead. We ship it, you send the first one back in its box, and we refund or charge the difference.
40 seconds on the One, 45 on the Duo and 90 on the Pro, which heats two boilers so it can brew and steam at once.

It hums rather than rattles. About as loud as a kettle, for the 28 seconds of the shot.
