Turin Gallatin R HX Espresso Machine with Rotary Pump & PID & Flow Control
Turin Gallatin R Espresso Machine (Rotary Pump & Flow Control)
Commercial Power, Whisper-Quiet Operation, and Total Extraction Control.
The Turin Gallatin R redefines what is possible in a home espresso setup. Merging the robust performance of a commercial café machine with the footprint of a kitchen appliance, the Gallatin R is the "end-game" choice for baristas who demand silence, power, and precision.
Distinguished by its commercial Rotary Pump and Heat Exchange (HX) boiler system, this machine offers the ultimate flexibility: run it off the internal reservoir for portability, or plumb it directly into your water line for an endless workflow. Wrapped in mirror-finish stainless steel with premium Black Walnut touchpoints, the Gallatin R is a statement piece of engineering.
Why Upgrade to the Gallatin R?
1. The Rotary Pump Advantage Most home machines use vibrating pumps. The Gallatin R utilizes a professional-grade Rotary Pump. This upgrade offers three distinct benefits:
- Near-Silent Operation: Brew your morning espresso without waking the household.
- Instant Pressure: Immediate ramp-up to 9 bars for a consistent extraction.
- Direct Plumbing: The rotary pump allows you to connect the machine directly to a water line, bypassing the need to refill the 1.7L tank.
2. Flow Control: The Flavor Profiler Included as a standard feature, the Grouphead Flow Control Paddle gives you manual command over the water flow rate. While the PID maintains temperature, you can manipulate pressure in real-time. Ramp up slowly to soak the puck, maintain 9 bars for the body, and taper off pressure at the end to reduce bitterness. A group-mounted gauge lets you visualize your profile instantly.
3. Heat Exchange (HX) Efficiency Powered by a massive 2-Liter Heat Exchange Boiler, the Gallatin R allows you to brew espresso and steam milk simultaneously. There is no switching modes and no waiting for temperatures to stabilize. The PID controller ensures the boiler temperature remains rock-steady, providing powerful, dry steam for latte art and consistent brewing water.
4. Commercial Ergonomics & Style The Gallatin R replaces standard turning knobs with Joystick Steam and Hot Water Valves. These allow for instant on/off toggling, which is more ergonomic and durable. The steam wand features a 3-hole tip, making it effortless to roll milk into silky microfoam. The entire interface is elevated by genuine Black Walnut wood handles on the portafilter, tamper, and levers, contrasting beautifully against the polished steel body.
5. Smart Digital Control Center The discreet digital display is your command center. Use it to:
- Set precise boiler temperatures via PID.
- Monitor your extraction with the built-in Shot Timer.
- Customize Pre-Infusion times to prevent channeling.
- Program the Eco-Mode to save energy when the machine is idle.
Flexible Installation
Whether you are renting an apartment or building a dream coffee bar, the Gallatin R adapts.
- Water Source: Use the switchable manual valve to toggle between the 1.7L tank or a direct water line connection.
- Drainage: The drip tray can be used as a standard catch tray or connected to a drain line, meaning you never have to empty wastewater manually.
