Software Update for La Spaziale Vivaldi II

We though the Vivaldi II was perfect like it was. Well in 2008 we decided there were a couple of things we could do to improve it even more! We added Programmable Offset Differential and Programmable Passive Pre Infusion. The other good news is these improvements can be added to any previously purchased Vivaldi II since they are software updates. For just $50.00 and the cost of shipping we can upgrade your control board on any previously purchased Vivaldi II. All you need to do is give our service department a call to get an RA# at 518-452-5995 you can reach them Monday thru Friday 7:30 AM to 5:00 PM EST. Here is a down loadable PDF installation instruction manual. This manual shows you how to remove your existing board from your machine and how to use the programing.

What is Programmable Passive Pre Infusion? This is the same type of pre infusion used on some of the most expensive machines on the market. It differs from pre infusion on an E61 machine in so much as you control the time, from 1 to 8 seconds, of the pre infusion as well as the amount of water you pre infuse with. This is done in conjunction with a flow regulator valve and a pressure gauge. You have no control of the pre infusion on an E61 Group. You can set this for what works best for you and your coffee. Once you set it where you like it, there is nothing you have to do except press the the button to start the brew cycle.

What is Programmable Off Set Differential This allows you to set the LED temperature setting on the front of the machine to be equal to the temperature being delivered at the group rather than the temperature inside the group boiler. Note: We set it during the bench test of each machine prior to shipping so you don't have to invest in the expensive equipment necessary to perform the tests and setting.
