Said and done.

Press a button. Walk away. The Aroma Plus+ Standby Mono stops itself — at exactly the right volume, every time. No hovering. No second-guessing. No manually cutting the shot.

This is what happens when Italian engineering gets serious about precision.


Mono. As in, nothing unnecessary.

Available in Total Black or Total White, the Standby Mono is designed for people who've already made up their mind about what belongs on a bench. Matte surfaces. Steel details. Zero fuss.

It doesn't try to be noticed. It just is.


The Standby difference

Most ESE machines are manual — you press to start, press again to stop. Get distracted and you've got a lungo when you wanted a ristretto.

The Standby Mono's volumetric control system changes that entirely:

Single shot — programmed to deliver a standard 30ml Italian espresso. Stops automatically.

Double shot — programmed for a 60ml lungo. Also stops automatically.

Tailored to your taste — manually programme the pour time for each button to dial in your preferred extraction. Shorter, longer, whatever you need. Set it once, forget it.

It's ideal for households where one person drinks short and intense and the other needs a proper morning coffee. The machine remembers. You don't have to.


What are ESE paper pods?

ESE stands for Easy Serving Espresso — Italy's original single-serve coffee format, and still the best one.

Each pod is a precise dose of freshly ground coffee, wrapped in biodegradable filter paper. Not plastic. Not aluminium. Just coffee and paper, the way it's been done across Italy for decades.

Insert the pod, brew, compost it. That's the whole story.

Compatible with hundreds of blends from any brand — so you choose the coffee, every time. No lock-in, no compromises, no capsule collection cluttering your bench.

 

The Benefits

Patented Brass Brewing Group

Most machines use plastic or aluminium internals. Aroma uses brass — a material with exceptional thermal stability that holds temperature consistently from the first coffee to the last. The result is richer flavour, thicker crema, and reliable performance across multiple back-to-back cups.

95°C high-temperature thermostat

Prefer your espresso extra hot? Aroma runs at 95°C — two degrees above the standard — making it ideal for robust blends and anyone who preheats their cup. (We recommend doing exactly that if you're using glass or ceramic.)

IXELLE Water Tank Upgrade

Need more capacity? The IXELLE glass tank boosts your reservoir to 1700ml and sits neatly beside the machine or brackets directly onto the back. Same premium glass, bigger output.

Standby Kit

With this option, set your preferred coffee length — short or long — and let the machine do the rest. It'll automatically shut off after 9 minutes if not in use. Because great coffee shouldn't cost you a second thought.

Adjustable Brass Pod Press

Not all pods are identical. The Adjustable Brass Pod Press lets you fine-tune brewing pressure by hand — no tools needed — to suit different pod styles and blends, and to compensate for natural wear over time.

Easy to Clean

The removable filter holder rinses clean in seconds. Descale occasionally, and will deliver exceptional espresso for years.
