Torre Luigino TSP Total Black – dual-circuit machine with Smart PID
Matte black, it stands there, the OLED display shows the temperature, and with the ERGOLIFT lever the espresso begins to flow – calm, quiet, all in black.
The Torre Luigino TSP Total Black is a compact dual-circuit machine with a heat exchanger and Smart PID control, handmade in Italy. Stainless steel in matte black, a quiet rotary pump, and an OLED display bring a lot of technology into a small footprint.
For the vast majority, the matte black housing doesn't make the espresso measurably better. But it says something different – about the presence on the counter and the feeling in the morning. Whoever wants that knows why, and that's enough.
Heat exchanger with Smart PID
The 1.5-litre copper boiler with an internal heat exchanger delivers espresso, steam, and hot water at the same time. The Smart PID control brings an OLED display, a shot timer, adjustable pre-infusion, an eco mode, and a steam boost – plus four temperature levels. So you keep an eye on temperature and timing, without guesswork.
E61, quiet, compact
The E61 group with thermosiphon circulation and ERGOLIFT lever keeps the temperature stable and runs smoothly. The stainless steel rotary pump works quietly, two manometers show boiler and pump pressure, and the electronic water level control keeps track of the fill level. With espresso, there's no right or wrong – grind size, dose, and ratio lead to the goal, 1:2 as a start.
We accompany Torre as a partner. Our opinion is one of many.

Order directly online
Delivery throughout Switzerland and to Liechtenstein in 2 to 4 business days. Click and Collect in Bern, Gerberngasse 44 or Zurich, Hagenholzstrasse 50b – let us know, and we will check whether the machine is currently on display there. Financing available. A private barista course is included with your purchase, where we go through extraction and the espresso ritual together. The course is for up to two people from the same household or company attending together and must take place within one month of the machine's delivery – after that, the entitlement expires. Get in touch with us for the course and we'll find a date together. Questions about the machine or the setup: [email protected] or by phone during business hours.
What goes with it
A machine is only as good as what's freshly ground beside it. Fresh grinding happens with our coffee grinders – affordable and precise from the Varia range, finely crafted with the Weber Workshops EG-1. For dose and ratio, a scale: compact from the Normcore range or with an app from the Acaia collection. For even tamping, use a tamper. Not sure about the combination? Our machine and grinder advisor can help.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does the TSP's Smart PID control do?
It brings an OLED display, shot timer, adjustable pre-infusion, eco mode, steam boost, and four temperature levels – temperature and timing stay in view.
Is the TSP a dual-circuit machine?
Yes, a heat exchanger: the 1.5-litre copper boiler delivers espresso, steam, and hot water at the same time.
Does the Total Black have a rotary pump?
Yes, a quiet stainless steel rotary pump.
Which grinder suits the Luigino TSP?
An espresso grinder with fine adjustment. Affordable is the Varia range, more grind quality is the Weber Workshops EG-1 – both in our coffee grinders.
Can I see the Luigino TSP before buying?
That depends on whether the Luigino TSP is on display right now. Our showrooms in Bern (Gerberngasse 44) and Zurich Oerlikon (Hagenholzstrasse 50b) show a wide selection, but not our entire range – it is too large for that, and the display changes. Drop us a quick line at [email protected] before your visit, and we will check whether the Luigino TSP is currently there.
Roastery tip
Fresh coffee makes the difference. Full-bodied and chocolatey, it's Cozy Chocolate and Nutty Delight. For maximum body without acidity, the Very Nutty, for a brighter, fruitier profile, the Wild Peach. That's our recommendation, one of many.
