Dalla Corte Mina Barista 1 Group Espresso Machine

Dalla Corte Mina Barista 1 Group Espresso Machine

The Dalla Corte Mina Barista 1 Group is a compact traditional multi-boiler espresso machine designed for specialty coffee bars, coffee corners and premium residential setups that want detailed control over extraction. Its DFR lever enables real-time flow modulation, while app-based profiling, a 0.5 L group boiler, direct water connection and standard cool-touch steam wand support a highly configurable one-group workflow.

Compact espresso setups often force a compromise between footprint and control. Specialty coffee professionals may want manual flow profiling, precise pre-infusion and recipe customization without moving to a much larger commercial machine.

The Mina Barista addresses that challenge with Dalla Corte's Dynamic Flow Regulation system. The DFR lever allows the barista to change flow during extraction, while the connected app provides parameter calibration, profile creation and control over automated settings. Its multi-boiler architecture and direct water connection support a more complete commercial-style workflow in a compact format.

Highlights

• DFR manual extraction lever, lets the barista modulate water flow in real time during extraction.
• Micrometric DFR valve control, regulates water flow with stated tolerances of 0.01 mm and supports pre-infusion starting from 0 bar.

Built for Commercial Coffee Service

Adjust flow while the shot is running. The Mina Barista's DFR lever gives the operator direct control over water flow during extraction. This allows real-time flow modulation rather than limiting the workflow to a fixed programmed profile.

Work with fine flow adjustment. Dalla Corte states that the DFR valve controls water flow with micrometric precision and a tolerance of 0.01 mm. The system also supports pre-infusion beginning from 0 bar, giving the barista another variable to use when developing extraction profiles.

Create and calibrate profiles through the Mina app. The dedicated app connects to a smartphone and allows parameter calibration, profile creation and adjustment of automated settings. This combines hands-on lever control with a digital layer for saving and refining extraction behaviour.

Use multi-boiler technology in a compact footprint. Mina Barista combines a 3 L main boiler with a dedicated 0.5 L group boiler. The machine measures 15.2 × 15.2 × 16.1 in (385 × 385 × 410 mm), making it suitable for installations where counter space is more limited.

Connect directly to the water supply. A fixed water connection is included, supporting direct-plumbed operation. A water and tea dispenser is also included for preparing hot-water beverages or rinsing tasks.

Extend the workflow when needed. Grinder Control System and Milk Control System are both listed as optional. GCS can add compatible grinder communication, while MCS can add Dalla Corte's button-activated assisted milk-steaming workflow.
