From the makers of the official SCA Barista Championship espresso machine comes the Nuova Simonelli Oscar II Coffee Machine, a minimal machine designed for home use. Featuring a generous 2L heat exchange boiler, a professional portafilter, and programmable shots, it perfectly straddles the line between pro and consumer design.
A Great Home Starter Machine
The Oscar II features the same 2L heat exchange boiler found in Nuova Simonelli’s larger home machines, offering the ability to pull shots and steam milk at the same time. And thanks to the 2.8L water tank, you’ll have plenty of shots between tank refills.
The machine is built with thoughtful ergonomics, between the angled portafilter handle, the extra-long steam wand, and the placement of the steam lever. It feels perfectly natural to use, making it great for newcomers to home espresso.
Pulling Shots With The Nuova Simonelli Oscar II
Programmable single and double shots allow you to start your espresso and then walk away, knowing the machine will take care of the rest (pre-infusion and all). Simply use the easy control panel to set and start your shots.
Shots pull into hot mugs, thanks to the cup warmer on top of the machine. And when it’s time to steam, the extra-long wand feels smooth and makes it easy to have full control.
Available now in the Professional model Nuova Simonelli Oscar II that includes the popular Overpressure Valve Kit (OPV) already installed. This allows the user to regulate the brewing pressure in order to achieve the best quality espresso extraction.

Love the Oscar II
We were looking for a change out of our mainstream brand bean to cup coffee machine and to make the leap into a quantity espresso machine. After talking to the very experienced team and Alternative Brewing and visiting the showroom we settled on the Nouva Oscar II and couldn’t be happier! It makes amazing coffees and has an extremely powerful steam wand that you can use at the same time. Very much recommend this well priced machine and Alternative Brewing.

Best machine ever!
It is simple to use, very efficient at making a perfect brew and the steam wand is amazing! Perfect microfoam lattes:) only drawback is no dedicated hot water spout for long blacks..

Great Machine!
Delivery was so quick and great service! The machine is amazing. I was a barista for years and now i really miss making coffee, so this is perfect! It’s very easy to set up and use, even if you’ve never touched an espresso machine before. The steam is perfect for latte art too. The only downside is the tamper, it’s not the best. So I’d recommend buying a separate one. (You can pick them up cheap!). Also you’ll need to buy a milk jug. I know some machines come with them but this one doesn’t! All in all, I’d definitely recommend this machine. It’s worth every cent!

I really cant fault it. You wont be disappointed. Great experience dealing with AB also, easy transaction and fast delivery with good tracking.

Maiden Espresso Machine
After many google searches, review readings and countless questions to Alternative Brewing, I settled on the Oscar II for my first ever espresso machine. The look, design and ease of use won me over and boy I am not disappointed. I am enjoying learning the art of espresso but have found, like the coffee itself, it’s an addiction. Fantastic service, awesome speedy delivery and quality products. Alternative Brewing, take my money.

Thanks

I’m interested in buying this was wondering what cleaning products are used for this machine so I can buy all together. Also own a rancilio baby 9 the one that takes cafeitaly pods what cleaning products do you suggest

Hi, I see the Oscar II has no PID built in, but because it is a heat exchanger (HX)design does that mean it doesn't really need one like the single boiler machines do? All I could find on the web was
"The Oscar II uses a pressure stat rather than the PID often found on higher-end machines
But this is very common with heat exchangers, where a PID is less valid anyway. And it keeps the price low."
So do you need to temperature surf this machine?'

Hi, I heard the oscar II comes with too much pressure out of the box and there is a KIT available to reduce it to 9 bar? Do you sell the kit as well, and if yes do you off installation services for it as well?

Hi, what is the manufacturer's warranty for this?
