The Francis Francis X7.1 may look retro, but the espresso it produces is anything but your grandparent’s brew. The X7.1 uses illy’s iperespresso capsule technology, which utilizes a two stage-process instead of the conventional one-stage, in order to extract the very best flavor possible from illy espresso beans for a full bodied espresso and coveted crema. If you prefer milk, there is a Pannarello steam wand that froths milk for a perfect cappuccino and latte every time. The Francis X7.1 comes in either red or black, and at only $295 for the machine and less than a dollar per shot, it’s the significantly more economical choice than your local coffee house.
