The X4 had already come out of the pencil of Luca Trazzi in 1996 but the realization of the idea has taken five years. From the beginning all of the specialists we asked to realize the body of the X4, cast and soldered in polished stainless steel, explained to us for years that a form of the like was simply impossible to make. Then – after a long search – we succeeded in finding the person who was able to do it. She looks like the tank on a dream bike and with its blue digital display combines a futuristic retro look.

The X4 is completely computerized and programmable: she automatically refills her boiler tanks and if the water tank is empty, she gives a signal and turns herself off. After she has begun making coffee, she stops by herself based on a predetermined time which is very easy to program. She allows to change the coffee-brewing temperature according to the owner’s preference, and she turns on and off by herself at desired times, so as not to consume energy when not in use. She produces a continuous supply of vapor, allowing for the heating of much more milk than traditional machines. When in the stand by position she displays the time by a retro-activated illumination device. The X4 was also designed for use with the Easy Serving Espresso system (ESE).

The designer espresso machine, "FrancisFrancis! X4", is 34 cm high, 30 cm wide and 32 cm deep and weighs 9.5 kg. It comes in a cool, shiny stainless steel finish. .
