Nuova Simonelli traces its roots to 1936, when Orlando Simonelli built his first espresso machine in Cessapalombo, Italy, and named it "1936" after the year it was born. Over nearly a century the company has driven espresso technology forward — from the world's first continuous brewing machine in 1950 to electronic dosing in 1975 — and its Aurelia platform served as the official machine of the World Barista Championship from 2008 to 2014. Today Nuova Simonelli is one of Italy's most respected names in espresso equipment, with a footprint that spans Europe, the Middle East, Asia-Pacific and the Americas.
The Prontobar Silent is the quieter, more energy-conscious sibling in the Prontobar range — a superautomatic bean-to-cup machine built for sites where noise and running costs matter as much as coffee quality. You can choose it with a 5-litre water tank or plumb it directly into the mains, and with one or two grinders depending on how much bean flexibility your menu needs. It's built to lift the quality of your drinks without asking your team to manage a commercial espresso setup.
A metal brew group stands up to daily commercial use far better than plastic alternatives, holding its performance over years of service.
Engineered specifically for quiet operation, so the machine fits comfortably into offices, guest lounges and other noise-sensitive spaces.
Run a single bean for a focused menu, or add a second grinder to offer decaf or an alternative blend side by side.
Choose a 5-litre water tank for portability, or connect straight to the mains for uninterrupted supply in a fixed installation.
A professional-diameter brew group extracts espresso and milk-based drinks with the consistency a busy site depends on.
Built with energy saving in mind, so it costs less to run over a full day of service than you might expect from a machine this capable.
The Prontobar Silent is built for you if you run an office, food-service counter, small coffee shop, hotel, B&B, self-service site or catering operation and want quality drinks without the noise or complexity of a full commercial setup. It's a machine you can install once and rely on daily. Quiet by design, dependable by nature — that's the Prontobar Silent.
