Faema President Thermosifonica: Is the Rebirth of an Icon Enough to Beat Today’s Multi-Boilers?

In the fast-paced world of the UK specialty coffee scene, the debate between "traditional soul" and "modern tech" is heating up. At the centre of this conversation is the Faema President Thermosifonica.

It’s a machine that looks like it stepped off a 1960s film set but carries the internal firepower to compete in a 2026 London high-street cafe. But in an era where multi-boiler espresso machines claim to be the king of precision, can a thermosiphonic system—even one this advanced—still hold the crown?

The Return of the "Thermic" King

For decades, the thermosiphon system was the gold standard for thermal stability. The Faema President revisits this heritage but adds a crucial modern twist: independent thermal regulation knobs for every group head.

Unlike basic heat exchangers where you're "stuck" with one temperature, the President allows baristas to fine-tune each group. This means you can run a dark Italian roast at 92°C on Group 1 and a bright, acidic Ethiopian single-origin at 94°C on Group 2. It offers the flexibility of a multi-boiler without the staggering electricity bill.

The "Green" Factor: Sustainability in the UK Cafe

UK business owners are currently facing some of the highest energy costs in Europe. Sustainability isn't just a buzzword anymore; it’s a bottom-line necessity.

The Faema President shines here with its "Green Machine" software. While multi-boilers have to keep several tanks of water at boiling point all day, the President’s Smart Boiler technology and advanced boiler insulation drastically reduce heat loss.

• Energy Saving Mode: The software automatically lowers boiler pressure during quiet periods, saving you significant pounds on your monthly utility bill—a major win for eco-conscious coffee shops in Manchester, London, and beyond.

Maintenance: The "Right to Repair" Advantage

One of the biggest headaches for UK cafe owners is the "down-time" caused by waiting for specialist parts. This is where the President has a distinct advantage over "space-age" multi-boiler rivals.

Because it utilizes a refined version of the classic E61-style tech, it is a dream for UK coffee engineers.

• Parts Availability: Faema parts (shared with the Cimbali group) are some of the most widely stocked components in the UK.

• Serviceability: Any reputable engineer from Cornwall to the Highlands will know their way around a Faema. You aren't tied to a single, expensive "manufacturer-only" service contract.

The Verdict: Iconic Style vs. Multi-Boiler Precision?

If you are running a high-volume laboratory where you need to change temperatures to the 0.1 degree via a touchscreen every ten minutes, a multi-boiler like the Faema E71 GTi might be your speed.

However, for the boutique UK cafe that values reliability, lower running costs, and timeless aesthetics, the Faema President Thermosifonica is the smarter investment. It provides "pro-level" temperature control without the complexity and energy waste of traditional multi-boiler systems.
