Compact. Capable. Classic.
The Mechanika VI Slim brings ECM’s legendary craftsmanship into a smaller, more approachable form—without compromise. Designed for those beginning their espresso journey or seeking a refined, space-efficient machine, it combines authentic café performance with elegant simplicity.
Despite its compact size, the Mechanika VI Slim is powered by a 2.2L stainless-steel heat-exchange boiler, allowing you to brew and steam simultaneously for a smooth, uninterrupted workflow. The iconic E61 group head, heated by a thermosyphon system, ensures thermal stability and balanced extractions—while the adjustable pressure valve gives you creative control over your brew profile.
With a three-position temperature control switch, you can fine-tune boiler temperatures and toggle pre-infusion or ECO mode with ease. Every element is crafted to ECM’s exacting standards: stainless steel housing, chrome-plated accents, and ergonomic ECM portafilters that feel perfectly balanced in hand.
Compact in size, bold in performance—the Mechanika VI Slim is proof that excellence doesn’t need to take up space.
Why It Stands Out
• Compact Mastery — At just 25 cm wide, it fits seamlessly under kitchen cabinets without sacrificing performance.
• Heat Exchange System — Brew and steam at the same time for barista-level workflow and consistency.
• E61 Brew Group — Constant thermal circulation ensures stable extraction and full-bodied espresso.
• Three-Position Control Switch — Easily adjust between preset boiler temperatures, ECO mode, and pre-infusion.
• Adjustable Pressure — Fine-tune the brewing force to explore different flavor profiles.
• Premium Craftsmanship — Stainless-steel construction, retro-inspired design, and ECM’s signature detailing.
