WMF says this boosts reliability and stability thanks to self-regulating quality control loops. The principle revolves around the assistant system monitoring the brewing time: through this, it detects whether an automatic, electric adjustment of the grinding degree is required and then performs this function. WMF CoffeeConnect generates a digital environment that is used for cross-location online monitoring of coffee quality, production readiness and machine availability, and for functions such as intelligent adaptation of daily maintenance tasks and automated, central procurement. The WMF Espresso is available with optional features, including two 1.1-kilorgam bean hoppers and a second Auto Steam spout on the right-hand side of the machine.
