TRIESTE, Italy – Espresso or American-style coffee? Dilemma solved: illy’s family of machines greets a new arrival to celebrate Iperespresso’s tenth anniversary. illy proudly announce the birth of the Y5 Espresso & Coffee, the first machine designed specifically to cater to both espresso and American-style coffee lovers.
The new system satisfies the many different ways people like to drink their coffee these days. It makes two different types of coffee – espresso and American-style coffee – offering the practicality of using just one machine.
The latest result of illy’s ongoing research and technological innovation, the Y5 Espresso & Coffee can be loaded with espresso capsules – which extract coffee through infusion and emulsion stages – or American-style coffee capsules which use a low pressure extraction.
The illy Iperespresso capsule range now enriches its proposal to offer the opportunity to make, in addition to the espresso, the highest-quality American-style coffee with the unmistakable flavour of illy’s 100%-Arabica blend.
Using a cleverly-balanced recipe, these American-style capsules combine ground coffee with a blend of instant coffee extracted using the most advanced conversion techniques to guarantee an exceptional aroma and body in a beverage of around 220ml/7.5 fl. oz.
Y5 Iperespresso Espresso & Coffee maintains the elegant design and compact dimensions of the previous Y5 Iperespresso model by adding the functionality for the extraction of the American-style coffee at the temperature that enhances the illy blend’s flavor.
With Y5 Espresso & Coffee it possible to programme the own favourite output amounts and taste intensity, making it possible to enjoy a perfectly-dosed coffee whenever you want.
The versatility of the union of the new machine Y5 Iperespresso E & C and the caspules range, made for different preparations and tastes, has turned coffee-making into something akin to the world of bespoke tailoring: a world of professionalism and creativity for interpreting and making the most of every individual’s qualities, all the while respecting style, taste and form.
