Victoria Arduino Eagle Tempo 3 Group Digit Espresso Machine – Stone Blue
Victoria Arduino Eagle Tempo 3 Group Digit Espresso Machine – Stone Blue Three-Group Capacity for High-Pressure Commercial Service The Victoria Arduino Eagle Tempo 3 Group Digit in Stone Blue is built for coffee programs that need more brewing space, stronger peak-period throughput, and room for several baristas to work at once. Its three raised groups, 17-litre boiler, programmable volumetric dosing, independent shot timers, and automatic workflow functions support demanding cafés, restaurants, bakeries, roasteries, hotels, and hospitality venues. The wider 41.5-inch format creates three distinct extraction positions across the bar. This allows a team to prepare several espresso-based drinks simultaneously, separate different recipes between groups, or keep production moving when large orders arrive together. Stone Blue gives this high-capacity commercial espresso machine a more considered visual identity than conventional black or polished-metal equipment. The muted finish pairs naturally with wood, stone, concrete, tile, and neutral cabinetry, making the machine particularly well suited to prominent customer-facing counters. This is the Eagle Tempo Digit configuration. It uses a single-boiler system with TERS thermal energy recovery. It does not use the independent-boiler NEO platform. Why Choose the 3 Group Stone Blue Eagle Tempo Digit? Three Commercial Groups: Expands brewing capacity and provides more working space for multi-barista service. 17-Litre Boiler: Supports sustained steam production, espresso brewing, and hot-water use during busy periods. Stone Blue Finish: Gives large customer-facing coffee bars a distinctive yet understated focal point. Recommended Output: Suitable for operations preparing up to approximately 300 coffees per day. Four Programmable Doses per Group: Provides up to twelve dedicated volumetric selections across the machine. Independent Shot Timers: Displays extraction time separately for each of the three groups. Automatic Group Purge: Rinses the group after extraction and reduces repetitive barista movements. Independent Automatic Backflushing: Simplifies routine group cleaning. TERS Technology: Uses recovered heat to preheat incoming water and reduce wasted thermal energy. Optional EasyCream: Adds programmable automatic milk texturing on the left side of the machine. Built for Multi-Barista Workflow The main advantage of the three-group configuration is not simply the ability to pull one additional shot. Its wider work area gives baristas more room to organize portafilters, cups, scales, milk pitchers, and active orders without crowding the same extraction position. During busy service, one barista can manage espresso across the centre and right groups while another works from the left steam station. Larger teams can divide the machine into dedicated work zones, reducing interference and making drink assembly easier to coordinate. Three simultaneous extraction positions. More space between active portafilters and cups. Better support for two- or three-barista teams. Suitable for concentrated rush periods and large table orders. Additional flexibility for separating recipes or coffee offerings. Independent Programming Across Three Groups Each group stores four volumetric espresso doses. These can be programmed for commonly used short and long single or double-shot recipes, allowing the barista to start an extraction with one touch and move immediately to another task. Across three groups, the machine provides up to twelve programmable dose positions. A business can keep the same recipes available at every station for maximum consistency or assign different volumes to specific groups where the menu requires more flexibility. The machine automatically stops each extraction when the programmed volume has been reached, reducing the need to supervise every shot manually. Independent Shot Timers for Every Group Each brew group has its own shot timer shown on the display. Three extractions can therefore be monitored independently, even when they begin at different times. This makes it easier to identify changes in grind behaviour or puck preparation during high-volume service. A noticeable shift in extraction time may indicate that the grind setting, dose, distribution, tamping, or coffee condition needs attention. Shot time remains one part of recipe control and should be considered alongside beverage yield and flavour. Digit Display and Machine Control The multifunction display centralizes recipe programming, operating information, cleaning functions, and maintenance access. Baristas and managers can review machine status and make routine adjustments without opening the body panels. Programmable espresso volumes. Independent shot-time information. Steam-boiler PID adjustment. Automatic startup and shutdown scheduling. Independent backflushing for each group. Maintenance reminders. Self-diagnostic information. Maintenance and operating alarms. Machine-usage information. Automatic Group Purge for Faster Turnaround After extraction, the automatic purge function rinses the group to remove loose coffee residue from the screen. This reduces the need for the barista to trigger a separate flush between every shot. On a three-group machine, removing that repeated step becomes especially valuable. Each station can be prepared for the next portafilter more quickly while the team continues grinding, dosing, steaming, and assembling drinks. Programmable Pre-Infusion and SIS Programmable pre-infusion gives the coffee team control over the initial wetting stage before full extraction pressure begins. This provides flexibility when adjusting recipes for different roast profiles, basket sizes, doses, and coffee styles. Victoria Arduino’s SIS Soft Infusion System gently introduces water to the coffee puck to encourage more even saturation. It reduces the effect of minor preparation inconsistencies and supports greater repeatability between different baristas. Controlled initial puck saturation. More even water distribution. Reduced sensitivity to minor tamping variation. Greater consistency across three working groups. Useful flexibility when changing coffee or recipe settings. 17-Litre Boiler for Demanding Beverage Menus The 17-litre boiler provides the reserve required for repeated milk steaming, espresso extraction, tea, and Americano preparation throughout active service. Its larger capacity is particularly useful when several groups are operating while the steam wands and hot-water outlet are also in use. Fast heat recovery helps the machine maintain steam pressure during consecutive milk orders, while insulation limits unnecessary heat dispersion. Boiler Capacity: 17 litres. Simultaneous Brewing and Steaming: Supports several active drink orders at once. Fast Heat Recovery: Maintains steam availability during repeated pitcher use. Adjustable Hot-Water Temperature: Adds flexibility for tea and Americano preparation. Insulated Construction: Reduces energy lost through heat dispersion. TERS Thermal Energy Recovery System The Digit configuration incorporates Victoria Arduino’s patented TERS technology. Heat from discharged water is recovered and used to preheat incoming water before it reaches the boiler. This process reduces wasted thermal energy and lowers the amount of heating required for fresh water. TERS operates automatically in the background and does not change the barista’s normal workflow. Two Steam Stations for Shared Service Cool-touch steam wands are positioned on both sides of the machine, giving baristas independent access to milk preparation. This layout is well suited to a three-group bar, where espresso production may be spread across several operators. One barista can steam on the left while another works from the right without competing for the same station. Commercial steam tips provide the power needed for larger pitchers while retaining the control required for cappuccino, latte, and flat-white microfoam. Ergonomic Push-Pull Steam Levers The molded aluminum steam controls use a push-pull action instead of traditional rotary knobs. Lifting the lever provides a quick purge, while pressing it downward locks the valve open for continuous steaming. This direct movement reduces repetitive wrist rotation and allows baristas to start or stop steam quickly when moving through several pitchers. Upward position for quick purging. Locking downward position for continuous steaming. Faster operation during milk-heavy service. Reduced repetitive wrist movement. Cool-Touch Steam Wands The cool-touch construction makes the steam wands safer and more comfortable to handle during active service. It also reduces the amount of milk that burns onto the exterior, making the wands easier to wipe between pitchers. Regular purging and cleaning are still required to maintain hygiene and steam performance. Optional EasyCream Automatic Steam Wand The Eagle Tempo Digit can be ordered with one optional left-side EasyCream automatic steam wand at an additional cost. EasyCream replaces the left manual steam control with an automated system that regulates milk aeration and finishing temperature. An integrated probe monitors the steaming process, while programmable settings determine when air is introduced and when the cycle stops. Up to nine milk types or recipes can be configured. This allows the business to establish repeatable programs for dairy milk and a range of plant-based alternatives. Up to nine programmable milk recipes. Adjustable aeration. Adjustable finishing temperature. Automatic air introduction. Automatic steam shutoff. More consistent milk texture across staff members. Suitable for dairy and plant-based milk. EasyCream is optional and is not included with the standard machine. Independent Automatic Backflushing Each of the three groups can run its own automated backflushing cycle. This simplifies daily detergent cleaning and allows individual groups to be maintained independently. Automated backflushing supports a more consistent closing routine, particularly in businesses where different teams share responsibility for machine care. Portafilters, baskets, steam wands, drip trays, and exterior surfaces still require manual cleaning. Heavy Brass Groups for Temperature Stability Each brew group uses substantial brass construction to retain heat during repeated commercial extraction. The thermal mass helps maintain stable brewing conditions when all three groups are used continuously. This is especially valuable during rush periods, when several shots may be started and completed in rapid succession across the machine. Raised Groups and Included Cup Risers The raised groups provide clearance for takeaway cups up to approximately 16 ounces. Included risers lift smaller espresso and cappuccino cups closer to the portafilter spouts. This gives the barista flexibility to move between traditional ceramic service and taller takeaway drinks while reducing splashing with smaller cups. Reverse-Mirror Back Panel The reflective panel behind the groups allows the barista to observe espresso flow from a normal standing position. Colour, consistency, and changes in the stream can be monitored without repeatedly bending beneath the portafilter. Across a three-group machine, this improved visibility makes it easier to keep an eye on several extractions at once. External Pump-Pressure Adjustment A visible pump-pressure gauge allows the barista to monitor machine performance during brewing. Pump pressure can be accessed externally when adjustment is required, while steam pressure is shown digitally on the display. Pressure adjustments should be completed by a qualified operator or commercial espresso-machine technician. Commercial Portafilters The 3 Group model includes three double-spout portafilters and one single-spout portafilter. Each uses solid chrome-plated brass construction with an ergonomic handle and rubber grip area. The portafilters are built for repeated commercial use, while the shaped handles reduce strain during locking, removal, and knocking. Three double-spout portafilters. One single-spout portafilter. Solid chrome-plated brass bodies. Ergonomic handles. Rubber grip sections. Stone Blue Across a Larger Commercial Chassis The extended three-group body gives the Stone Blue finish more visual impact than on smaller configurations. Rather than appearing as a small accent, the muted colour becomes a defining part of the counter design. It works particularly well in larger cafés, hotel bars, bakeries, roasteries, and restaurant interiors where the espresso station is visible from across the room. Stainless steel and formed aluminum panels are mounted to a solid steel frame, combining the distinctive exterior with the structural durability required for long commercial days. Automatic Operating Schedules Startup and shutdown times can be programmed through the display. The machine can begin heating before the opening team arrives and switch off according to the business’s normal operating hours. This supports a smoother opening routine and reduces unnecessary operation after service has ended. Maintenance Information and Diagnostics The display provides maintenance reminders, operating alarms, cleaning access, usage information, and self-diagnostic data. These functions help managers identify routine maintenance requirements and provide technicians with useful operating information when service is needed. They do not replace scheduled preventative maintenance by a qualified commercial technician. Who It’s For High-volume cafés with concentrated peak periods.
