The ECM Synchronika II is a dual-boiler E61 espresso machine built in Heidelberg, Germany, with a stainless steel and walnut body. Separate brew and steam boilers let you pull shots and steam milk at the same time, and the quiet rotary pump can draw from the internal reservoir or a plumbed line. The LUCCA E61 flow control device comes pre-installed, so you can profile pressure within a shot instead of buying a kit later. It sits at the top of the prosumer tier: more capable than entry-level machines, less costly than a single-group commercial unit, and built to last decades.

Rated 4.8 out of 5 across 24 ratings, owners treat the Synchronika II as a long-term machine. They praise the build, the quiet rotary pump and the flow control, and mostly flag its size and the time needed to learn profiling.
The ECM Synchronika II with Flow Control is a dual boiler E61 espresso machine for the home countertop. It is built in Heidelberg, Germany, with a stainless steel and walnut design. It has a rotary pump, separate brew and steam boilers, and a LUCCA E61 Stainless Steel flow control device that comes pre-installed.
The flow control device lets you adjust flow rate during extraction to shape pressure profiling. You can stretch a pre-infusion, ramp up mid-shot or taper at the end. Separate brew and steam boilers let you pull a shot and texture milk at the same time. Steam pressure is 2 bar, and a fast heat-up mode brings both boilers to temperature in 6.5 minutes.
The rotary vane pump is quiet. It runs from the internal reservoir or from a direct water line, so you can start on the reservoir and plumb in later. An OLED PID display with a tactile knob controls brew temperature, steam pressure, pre-infusion duration and auto-on/off scheduling. A shot timer is built in. The drip tray can be drained with an optional drain hose, which is not included, to route wastewater to a container below the counter.
