About CIME
CIME — Costruzione Italiana Macchine Espresso — was founded in Italy in 2012 by an experienced technician who wanted espresso machines that were genuinely easy to use and easy to repair. That practical, barista-first thinking still runs through every CIME machine today. The brand is built on three pillars — reliability, durability, and high performance — and every unit is manufactured in-house at its Italian factory, giving CIME direct control over quality from design through to production.
The Product
The Saturno MB-60 is CIME's most futuristic machine to date, drawing its curved, sculptural lines from the shape of Saturn itself — but the design isn't just for show. Underneath sits CIME's Multiboiler system, with independent steam and coffee circuits that hold their own even during your busiest stretch of service, so one drink order never compromises the next.
Energy efficiency is a genuine focus here, not an afterthought: insulated boilers combined with Auto-on, Auto-off, and Day-off scheduling can cut energy use by up to 40% compared to a standard setup — useful for any café watching its power bill closely, and particularly relevant if load shedding has you thinking about running costs differently. A 3.2-inch digital display puts volume, extraction time, and temperature control directly in the barista's hands, with programmable pre-brewing profiles for consistent results shot after shot.
Key Features
CIME Multiboiler system — Independent steam and coffee circuits, plus individual boilers per group head, maintain cup quality even under high demand.
Up to 40% energy savings — Insulated boilers plus Auto-on/off and Day-off scheduling reduce running costs without touching performance.
3.2-inch digital multifunction display — Direct control over volume, extraction time, and temperature, with programmable pre-brewing profiles.
Cool-touch AISI 316 steam wands — 12mm diameter for high steam flow, designed with barista safety front of mind.
LED-lit work area — Improves visibility for the barista and adds genuine café atmosphere.
Choosing Between Versions
The Saturno is available in 2 Group and 3 Group configurations, both Automatic. The 2 Group suits busy independent cafés and mid-volume commercial sites; the 3 Group is built for genuine peak-hour throughput across multiple baristas working simultaneously. Both share the same Multiboiler platform, energy-saving features, and display.
Why Choose This Product
The Saturno is for the café that wants its espresso bar to look genuinely different — sculptural, modern, unmistakably not another boxy commercial machine — without sacrificing the independent boiler performance a busy bar actually needs. If a striking counter presence and real energy savings both matter to your operation, this is a strong fit.

Buying and Installation Notes
Confirm your available voltage and phase supply before ordering — the 3 Group requires a 380V three-phase supply, while the 2 Group runs on standard 220–240V. As a commercial multi-boiler machine, direct plumbing into your water and drain lines is recommended.
