The ECM Technika VI is no longer a classic heat exchanger, but a modern dual boiler. Combined with the ECM Exacto, it creates a setup that combines separate temperature control, a rotary pump, and Grind by Weight in a comparatively compact ECM package.
The Technika VI & Exacto Bundle is additionally complemented by a tamping station and knock box, making it a complete coffee station.
Technika VI: Dual Boiler Instead of Older HX Technology
ECM describes the current Technika VI as a dual boiler with a rotary pump. Both stainless steel boilers heat simultaneously, and their temperatures can be adjusted independently via PID. According to ECM, Fast Heat-Up brings the machine to brewing temperature in around eleven minutes.
Active and passive pre-infusion, as well as programmable on and off times, expand the workflow. Operation with a water tank or a direct water connection is possible.
Exacto: Three Dosing Options
The Exacto can grind by weight, by time, or manually. This is practical if you want to use Grind by Weight in everyday use but deliberately switch to another mode when needed. The 64 mm steel burrs and stepless adjustment provide enough flexibility for different espresso roasts.
Technika VI or Synchronika II?
The Synchronika II is larger, features the 3CT/Core-Heat concept, and heats up even faster. The Technika VI is more compact and uses a more traditional dual-boiler concept. If counter space matters, the Technika may be the more balanced choice.
Who Is the Bundle For?
For users who prepare several espresso and milk drinks per day, want a quiet rotary pump, and would like to grind a regular house blend conveniently by weight.
Conclusion
Technika VI + Exacto combines modern dual-boiler convenience with reproducible dosing, without appearing as large as some premium dual-boiler setups.
