Profitec Pro 500 QS – Heat Exchanger with E61
A massive E61 brew group, a large water tank, and a removable cup tray that makes refilling easy: The Pro 500 QS is a classic heat exchanger that keeps everyday use uncomplicated. Thanks to its thermosiphon system, it draws fresh water from the tank for brewing – from Profitec, a German manufacturer based in Bammental near Heidelberg, which crafts its machines by hand in Germany and Italy.
