About CIME
CIME — Costruzione Italiana Macchine Espresso — was founded in Italy in 2012 around a simple idea: espresso machines should be genuinely easy to use and easy to repair. Built on reliability, durability, and high performance, and manufactured entirely in-house at CIME's Italian factory, the brand has grown into a name trusted for straightforward, well-engineered machines.
The Product
The CO-01 1 Group Semi-Automatic blends Italian craftsmanship with professional-grade features aimed squarely at home baristas and small offices chasing genuine café-quality espresso. Its polished stainless steel body brings a touch of elegance to any kitchen or office counter, without sacrificing the durability CIME builds its reputation on.
At its core is a 1.5-litre heat exchanger boiler, letting you brew and steam at the same time — a capability normally reserved for larger commercial machines, here scaled down into a single-group footprint. The renowned E61 group head adds thermal stability and extraction quality most home machines in this range don't offer, while a pump-stopping safety system with a clear orange signal light protects the machine from running dry or overheating during extended use.
Key Features
1.5L heat exchanger boiler — Brew and steam simultaneously, a genuinely commercial capability in a home-sized machine.
E61 group head — Improved thermal stability and extraction quality over typical entry-level home machines.
Automatic pump protection — Stops automatically if water runs low or the pump runs continuously for over two minutes, with a clear warning light.
Polished stainless steel body — Durable and genuinely elegant on any kitchen or office counter.
Why Choose This Product
The CO-01 is for the home barista or small office that wants a real step up from an entry-level machine — heat exchange brewing, an E61 group head, and genuine build quality — without moving into full prosumer pricing. If you want commercial-style simultaneous brewing and steaming in a compact, single-group unit, this is built for exactly that.
