Its long lever, pressure gauge and adjustable PID make extraction visible and tactile: you decide how gently to saturate the puck, how quickly to build pressure and how pressure declines through the shot.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA stainless steel brew path separates water and coffee from the machine’s aluminum structural components. The 58mm walnut-handled bottomless portafilter accepts a familiar commercial-size basket, while the included shot mirror helps reveal uneven flow or channeling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy Choose the Turin Axis?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDirect manual pressure control\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe lever lets you shape pressure in real time. Apply a gentle pre-infusion, raise force as the puck saturates and ease off later in the extraction. The gauge provides feedback, but taste and repeatability remain the final tests.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAdjustable PID heating\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePID control manages the electrically heated brew system. At a listed 180 watts, the Axis focuses its energy on the compact brew path rather than powering a steam boiler.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e58mm bottomless portafilter\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe included walnut-handled bottomless portafilter makes puck behavior visible. Spraying or uneven beading usually points toward distribution, tamping or grind problems that should be corrected before changing pressure technique.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eStainless water and coffee path\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll listed water-contact and coffee-contact parts are food-grade SUS304 stainless steel.

Height is approximately 13 inches with the lever down and 29 inches with it raised, so overhead clearance matters more than counter width.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTurin Axis Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"overflow-x: auto;\"\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width: 100%; border-collapse: collapse;\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"padding: 9px; border: 1px solid #ddd; text-align: left;\"\u003eMachine type\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 9px; border: 1px solid #ddd;\"\u003eManual lever espresso machine with electric PID heating\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"padding: 9px; border: 1px solid #ddd; text-align: left;\"\u003eBrew path\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 9px; border: 1px solid #ddd;\"\u003eSUS304 stainless steel water- and coffee-contact path\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"padding: 9px; border: 1px solid #ddd; text-align: left;\"\u003ePortafilter\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 9px; border: 1px solid #ddd;\"\u003e58mm walnut-handled bottomless portafilter\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"padding: 9px; border: 1px solid #ddd; text-align: left;\"\u003eIncluded basket\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 9px; border: 1px solid #ddd;\"\u003e18g double basket; current listing also notes a limited-time 22g basket\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"padding: 9px; border: 1px solid #ddd; text-align: left;\"\u003eFeedback\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 9px; border: 1px solid #ddd;\"\u003eBrew pressure gauge\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"padding: 9px; border: 1px solid #ddd; text-align: left;\"\u003eTemperature\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 9px; border: 1px solid #ddd;\"\u003eAdjustable PID\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"padding: 9px; border: 1px solid #ddd; text-align: left;\"\u003ePower\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 9px; border: 1px solid #ddd;\"\u003e120V, 180W\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"padding: 9px; border: 1px solid #ddd; text-align: left;\"\u003eBase\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 9px; border: 1px solid #ddd;\"\u003eApproximately 14.5 in L × 7.75 in W\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"padding: 9px; border: 1px solid #ddd; text-align: left;\"\u003eHeight\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 9px; border: 1px solid #ddd;\"\u003eApproximately 13 in lever down; 29 in lever raised\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"padding: 9px; border: 1px solid #ddd; text-align: left;\"\u003eLength with lever\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 9px; border: 1px solid #ddd;\"\u003eApproximately 16 in\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"padding: 9px; border: 1px solid #ddd; text-align: left;\"\u003eWeight\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 9px; border: 1px solid #ddd;\"\u003eApproximately 19.8 lb\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"padding: 9px; border: 1px solid #ddd; text-align: left;\"\u003ePackage\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 9px; border: 1px solid #ddd;\"\u003eApproximately 18.5 in L × 17 in W × 12 in H\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"padding: 9px; border: 1px solid #ddd; text-align: left;\"\u003eListed brew cavity\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 9px; border: 1px solid #ddd;\"\u003e87.4g\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eManual Lever Espresso Workflow\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePreheat the machine, portafilter and cup according to the manual.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGrind a measured dose into the basket, distribute carefully and tamp level.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdd the puck screen if desired and lock in the bottomless portafilter.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUse low lever force for controlled pre-infusion.
