Nuova Simonelli~Oscar II
The Nuova Simonelli Oscar II is a high-performance home espresso machine that brings professional-grade technology into a compact, elegant design. Known as the "affordable professional," it is the ideal choice for home baristas and small offices who want café-quality espresso without the massive footprint or price tag of a commercial machine.
Professional Core Technology
Heat Exchange Boiler: Unlike standard home machines, the Oscar II features a professional copper heat exchange boiler. This allows you to brew espresso and steam milk simultaneously, ensuring you never have to wait between pulling a shot and frothing your latte.
Professional Group Head: It utilizes a full-sized 58mm commercial-grade group head made of lead-free brass. This provides superior thermal stability, ensuring the water temperature remains consistent from the boiler to the coffee grounds.
Timed Volumetric Dosing: The intuitive touch control panel allows you to program two different timed doses. This ensures consistency across every shot, so you get the same perfect volume every morning at the touch of a button.
Compact & Thoughtful Design
Sleek Aesthetics: With its minimalist stainless steel front and distinctive "Oscar" silhouette, the machine fits beautifully into modern kitchens and high-end office spaces.
Ergonomic Steam Lever: Borrowing from Nuova Simonelli’s commercial machines, the Oscar II features a professional "Push & Pull" steam lever. It is much more ergonomic than traditional twist knobs, giving you instant, powerful steam control.
Extended Steam Wand: The extra-long articulating steam wand allows you to use various pitcher sizes and achieve the perfect angle for creating silky microfoam for latte art.
Versatility & Ease of Use
Tank or Direct Connect: The Oscar II is available in two versions: a Pour-Over model with a large 3-liter water reservoir for easy placement anywhere, and a Direct-Connect model for high-volume use without the need to refill a tank.
Quick Warm-Up: Thanks to its efficient design and high-quality materials, the Oscar II reaches brewing temperature significantly faster than many larger commercial machines.
Cup Warmer: The top of the machine serves as a functional cup-warming tray, ensuring your espresso stays at the ideal temperature when served.
Ideal For:
Home enthusiasts looking to upgrade from entry-level machines.
Small offices or boutiques that want to offer premium coffee.
Baristas-in-training who need a reliable machine for practicing extraction and latte art at home.
