The LUCCA Solo is a purpose-built, espresso-only machine designed for home baristas who care exclusively about shot quality. Built in Italy by Quick Mill exclusively for Clive, the Solo removes unnecessary components to focus on temperature stability, consistency, and control in a compact footprint.
This machine features a single boiler, vibratory pump, and a commercial-standard 58mm E61 group head, delivering reliable thermal performance shot after shot. A built-in PID controller allows precise brew temperature adjustment, while the integrated shot timer provides immediate feedback for dialing in espresso with accuracy. The result is repeatable extraction without excess complexity.
Unlike traditional E61 machines, the LUCCA Solo does not include a steam wand. This intentional design choice reduces internal heat load, simplifies operation, and maximizes performance for espresso-only use. If you don’t steam milk, you’re not paying for components you’ll never use.
The Solo operates from a 2-liter internal water reservoir, making it easy to place on most kitchen counters or home espresso bars without plumbing requirements. Its compact chassis is finished in black or stainless steel, with walnut wood accents on touchpoints for a refined, modern aesthetic that aligns with LUCCA’s design language.
Ideal for espresso purists, the LUCCA Solo delivers café-level shot quality in a streamlined package. Whether you’re focused on light-roast clarity or classic Italian profiles, the combination of PID control, E61 stability, and thoughtful design gives you full command over your espresso workflow.
The LUCCA Solo exists for one reason: to pull excellent espresso, consistently, without compromise.
