Victoria Arduino Eagle One Prima – the single-group espresso machine with cafe DNA for your home
That one quiet moment: The LED of the Ghost Display lights up, the shot timer counts along, and an espresso lands in your cup that tastes just like your favorite bar – dense, clear, with that stable sweetness that only consistent brewing temperature makes possible. That's exactly what the Eagle One Prima is built for: the technology of a cafe machine, shrunk to one group and made for the home counter.
The Prima brings Victoria Arduino's "Eagle" heritage into your own kitchen. Instead of large continuous-power boilers, it uses the NEO system – a heating concept that only heats what is truly needed. The result is a machine that is ready for operation in under eight minutes, consumes significantly less energy, and yet extracts at the level of a bar machine.
NEO – a new way to heat water
NEO stands for "New Engine Optimization". The instant-heating system precisely heats only the amount of water needed for the next shot. The stainless steel boilers are therefore more compact and are thermally insulated with a special material, so that hardly any heat is lost. This means the Prima is ready from cold in under eight minutes – faster than many machines in the same class – and operates with an ecological balance (Life Cycle Assessment) with approximately 23% less environmental impact than comparable devices.
Saturated brew group
The brew group is directly connected to the heating. This keeps the temperature constant throughout the entire shot – the basis for reproducible taste.
NEO Instant-Heating
Separate, insulated stainless steel boilers for brew water and steam/hot water. Only the necessary water is heated – ready for operation in under 8 minutes.
Steam-by-Wire
Electronically controlled steam lever with pressure up to 2.5 bar and cool-touch wand. 250 g of milk are frothed at 2 bar in about 18 seconds.
Ghost Display
Clean group keypad with display and three programmable buttons. The shot timer lights up brightly during the shot and fades when idle.
App Control
Via WiFi and Bluetooth, the Prima connects to your smartphone or tablet. Temperature, shot time, and steam can be adjusted in real time.
Cloud Recipes
Upload your own recipes to the cloud, share them with the community, or get inspired by other Prima users.
Auto-Purge
After removing the portafilter, the machine automatically cleans the group – fewer steps in daily use.
TERS Heat Recovery
The Thermal Energy Recovery System uses discharged water to preheat incoming water, thus reducing consumption.
Volumetric dosing, free profiling
The Prima works with volumetric brewing programs and uses standard commercial portafilters and baskets. You accurately dose your ratio once – typically 1:2, meaning about 18 g of coffee grounds to about 36 g of espresso – and then consistently get it cup after cup. Via the app, you can adjust the brewing temperature and steam to your bean. With espresso, there's no "right" or "wrong": ratio, grind size, and temperature are adjustment screws that help you hit your taste.

Colors, variants, and delivery
The Eagle One Prima is usually available from stock in Matt Black, Shiny (chrome-plated), and Matt White finishes. In addition, Victoria Arduino can produce your desired color as a RAL variant – these, as well as the EasyCream option, will be manufactured for you after order and payment and will be ready for pickup in approximately 8–12 weeks.
For variants with delivery, we bring the machine to you: We deliver, set it up at the prepared location, put it into operation, and conduct the barista workshop on-site. Deliveries are possible within a radius of approximately 2.5 hours driving time (e.g., Zurich, Basel, Lucerne, Bern, Geneva, Lausanne). Please allow about two hours for this and ensure a strong person is available to help with carrying, as well as a clear, clean space for setup. Without this option, the workshop takes place in our showroom. A personal barista workshop (German or English) is included with every Victoria Arduino purchase – so your espresso succeeds from the start. Financing is available.
Experience it live in Bern and Zurich
The Eagle One Prima thrives on haptics: the rich steam lever, the illumination of the display, the quiet operation. Come by, we'll show it to you and pull an espresso together. As food chemists and flavor developers, we illuminate coffee from a fresh perspective – something you'll take home with you.
Roastery Tip
Our balanced house roasts pair particularly well with the Eagle One Prima: Cozy Chocolate, Nutty Delight, and Very Nutty deliver dense crema, chocolate and nut notes, and forgive small differences in adjustment – ideal for milk and pure espresso. For those who like it fruity, discover a brighter side with Wild Peach or Bright Cassis. All beans can be found in our coffee bean selection. This is our recommendation, one of many.
Frequently Asked Questions about the Victoria Arduino Eagle One Prima
Is the Eagle One Prima suitable for home use?
Yes. It is a single-group, compact machine that can be supplied via an internal tank or a fixed water connection. It brings cafe technology to the home counter and is ready in under eight minutes thanks to NEO.
Does the Prima have a saturated brew group and separate boilers?
Yes. The saturated brew group ensures stable brewing temperature. The NEO system uses separate, thermally insulated stainless steel boilers for brew water and for steam/hot water; the steam boiler holds 1.5 liters.
How long does the Eagle One Prima take to heat up?
Thanks to NEO Instant-Heating, it is ready for operation in under eight minutes from cold.
What does the "with delivery" option mean?
We deliver the machine, set it up at the prepared location, put it into operation, and conduct the barista workshop with you. This is possible within a radius of approximately 2.5 hours driving time (e.g., Zurich, Basel, Lucerne, Bern, Geneva, Lausanne). Please allow about two hours for this and ensure a helper and a clear space for setup.
Can I froth milk automatically?
Optionally, EasyCream, an automatic milk frother (also for milk alternatives), is available at an extra cost. Without this option, you froth milk with the Steam-by-Wire wand – 250 g of milk in approximately 18 seconds at 2 bar.
Which grinder pairs well with the Eagle One Prima?
An espresso grinder with 58mm-compatible dosing and fine grind adjustment. A selection can be found in our coffee grinders and from Mahlkönig. We are also happy to advise you via our machine and grinder consultation.
Where can I buy and experience the Victoria Arduino Eagle One Prima live?
You can order the Eagle One Prima directly online. Standard colors are usually delivered within 2–4 business days throughout Switzerland and Liechtenstein; custom RAL and EasyCream are manufactured (approx. 8–12 weeks). You can experience it live in our showrooms in Bern and Zurich – Click & Collect is available at both locations.
