Di Pacci — Heat-Exchanger Volumetric Commercial Espresso Machine
Astoria Sabrina Plus 4 You Commercial Coffee Machine
The Astoria Sabrina puts 1960s Italian styling on the bench with the dependable heat-exchanger workings a busy cafe relies on.
The Astoria Sabrina is a heat-exchanger commercial espresso machine with a copper boiler and copper pipework, volumetric dosing with six programmable doses per group, and raised groups that take large takeaway cups. Two swivelling steam arms and a moveable hot water tap handle milk and long blacks while the groups keep brewing. It's offered here in 2, 3 and 4 group sizes.
What sets it apart from a plain-box commercial machine is the look: smooth 60s-inspired lines, chromed group covers and LED lighting across the work area and side panels. Underneath, it's a straightforward single-boiler heat-exchanger design that any espresso technician knows how to service, with a backlit dose keypad, advanced pre-infusion settings and a cup warmer.

Key Features of the Astoria Sabrina
🎨 Vintage 60s design
Smooth lines, chromed group covers and lit side panels make the machine part of the fit-out, not just equipment.
🔥 Heat-exchanger boiler
One copper boiler supplies steam while heat exchangers bring fresh brew water to temperature, so you can pull shots and steam milk at once.
🎛️ Six doses per group
A backlit, customisable keypad stores six volumetric doses for each group, so staff press a button rather than watch the cup.
🥤 Raised groups
Extra height under the groups fits large takeaway cups straight under the spouts.
☕ Advanced pre-infusion
Adjustable pre-infusion settings wet the puck before full pressure for more even extraction.
🥛 Two steam arms and hot water
Two swivelling steam arms and a moveable hot water tap keep milk and long blacks moving in a rush.
How a Heat Exchanger Keeps Up in Service
The Sabrina uses one large copper boiler held at steam temperature. Brew water doesn't sit in that boiler; it passes through a heat exchanger for each group on its way to the coffee.
- Fresh water flows through the heat exchanger inside the hot boiler and is heated on the way to the group.
- The large boiler volume stores steam and hot water, so milk and long blacks don't wait on the coffee side.
- Because brew water is drawn fresh for every shot, it hasn't been stewing in a boiler between orders.
It's a proven, simple layout that handles steady cafe volume, and parts and service knowledge for it are easy to find.

Astoria Sabrina: 2 Group vs 3 Group
Both sizes share the same heat-exchanger design, dosing and styling. The difference is capacity, footprint and power.

Di Pacci recommendation: Choose the 2 group for most cafes running one or two baristas; step up to 3 groups when you regularly have three people on the bar or a long takeaway queue. Don't bother with the Sabrina if you want brew-by-weight or separate coffee boilers for precise temperature profiling; look at the La Marzocco Linea PB (ABR) instead.

Astoria Sabrina — Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Astoria Sabrina a heat-exchanger or multi-boiler machine?
The Sabrina is a heat-exchanger machine. A single copper boiler provides steam and hot water, and each group draws fresh brew water through a heat exchanger, so you can brew and steam at the same time.
What power does the Astoria Sabrina need?
The 2 group has a 3900 W element and draws 17 A at 240 V single phase; the 3 group has a 5600 W element and draws 24.4 A. Both need a dedicated circuit installed by a licensed electrician.
How big is the Astoria Sabrina 2 group?
The 2 group measures 835 mm wide, 582 mm deep and 582 mm high and weighs 82 kg. The 3 group is 1075 mm wide with the same depth and height.
Does the Sabrina fit takeaway cups?
Yes. The groups are raised so large takeaway cups fit directly under the spouts.
Which grinder suits the Astoria Sabrina?
An on-demand commercial grinder with large flat or conical burrs, such as the Mahlkönig E65S for a 2 group or the Fiorenzato F83 E Pro for higher volume. Call (02) 9758 0760 and we'll match the grinder to your daily volume.
