Profitec MOVE Exclusive Line – compact dual boiler with OLED
A quiet flicker from the OLED display, the warm feel of the American walnut handle, and beneath the bottomless portafilter you can watch exactly how the espresso flows. The MOVE is Profitec's most compact dual boiler: two boilers for coffee and steam, their temperature set independently via PID, on a footprint small enough for a compact kitchen. Thanks to Fast Heat-Up, it's ready in around nine minutes. As an Exclusive Line model, it's available only through authorised specialist dealers such as Coffee Coaching Club. Profitec is a German manufacturer based in Bammental near Heidelberg, hand-building in Germany and Italy.
Coffee Coaching Club is a partner of Profitec in Switzerland. With every new coffee machine from CHF 1'500, a private barista introduction course of around 60 minutes is included – in Bern, Zurich or online, for up to two people from the same household or company attending together. The course must take place within one month of delivery; after that, the entitlement expires. Get in touch with us for the course and we'll find a date together. Financing is available.

Who it's for
For anyone who wants dual-boiler control, fast heat-up and programmable shots in a small footprint – with OLED controls and the design details of the Exclusive Line. No one needs a MOVE over another Profitec machine that performs similarly well on paper. You want the walnut handles, the display, the presence on the counter – or you don't. It's a decision made with feeling, not for measurably better espresso, and our opinion on it is one of many.
What goes with it
The same logic applies to the grinder as to the MOVE itself: from our Varia collection, the VS3 is affordable and precise, and anyone who wants more reaches for the VS6. For scales, it's the Normcore collection for anyone who wants it compact and reliable, and the Acaia collection with app and flow-rate display for anyone who wants to see more. Add a tamper and fresh beans such as Cozy Chocolate or Nutty Delight. More Profitec models are in our Profitec collection.
Frequently asked questions
Can I have the MOVE delivered?
No. As an Exclusive Line model, it's excluded from shipping and is collected in person. We're happy to set it up with you at handover.
What colours does the MOVE come in?
The MOVE is available in several colour options. Ask us about current availability and we'll tell you what's in stock.
How quickly is it ready?
Thanks to Fast Heat-Up, in around nine minutes. For an especially stable temperature, you can give it a little more time.
What does bottomless portafilter mean?
With a bottomless portafilter, you see the shot directly from below – helpful for spotting channeling and checking the distribution in the puck.
Can I see it before buying?
Of course — you can see it live in Bern and Zurich Oerlikon. Just let us know beforehand and we'll have it ready.
Roastery tip
The bottomless portafilter is a great learning tool: watch how the espresso flows out. If it runs evenly and centred, the distribution is right. If it sprays to the side, clean distribution and even tamping help. That's our recommendation, one of many.
