Item Description

Experience the next generation of espresso with this kit:

  • Francis Francis X7 iperEspresso Machine.
  • One Case of iperEspresso Capsules for iperEspresso machine.
  • Set of Six illy Logo Espresso cups and saucers.

The Francis Francis X7 works exclusively with illy iperEspresso capsules to make extraordinary espresso with one-touch convenience. Unlike conventional one-stage systems, the iperEspresso method uses an innovative, patented two-stage process to create intensely aromatic, full-bodied espresso with rich, velvety crema that lasts and lasts. And because extraction takes place entirely inside the capsule, the coffee and machine never come in contact making for easy clean up. Designed by renowned Italian architect Luca Trazzi, this striking machine adds a strong visual statement to any kitchen.

illy iperEspresso method lets you prepare extraordinary espresso and cappuccino at home with ease and simplicity using a Francis Francis X7 or X8 iperEspresso machine and illy iperEspresso capsules. Each capsule contains approximately seven grams of perfectly roasted and expertly ground and tamped 100% Arabica illy coffee. Available in medium roast for a sweet, balanced, pleasantly nuanced flavor, dark roast for a more intense and robust flavor. Decaffeinated capsules have the same flavor profile as medium roast but without the caffeine.

The illy Logo Cups feature Matteo Thun's simple, yet perfectly shaped design, our popular porcelain logo cups feature the signature illy handle and classic shape.

Discover the extraordinary pleasure of illy, the celebrated Italian espresso coffee served in the finest restaurants and cafés and enjoyed by coffee connoisseurs worldwide. Prized for its full, rich body and smooth, balanced flavor, illy's signature blend is 100% sustainably grown Arabica coffee, meticulously selected and freshness-packed to seal in its precious flavors and aromas.
