Meraki Espresso Machine Gen 2 Black

Refined for New Possibilities: The Gen 2 Upgrades

Based on field feedback and iterative testing, Gen 2 introduces hardware and software optimizations designed to unlock broader capabilities.

1. Expanded Grind Range: 45 Precision Steps

Recalibrated the adjustment mechanism to provide more granular control. By adding 10 coarser and 5 finer settings, Gen 2 now offers 45 discrete steps.

This expanded range provides full coverage across the coffee spectrum, allowing precise fine-tuning of extractions for high-density light roasts and classic dark roasts with professional accuracy.

2. Upgraded E61 Compatibility

Refined the brew group component to be fully compatible with the industry-standard E61 portafilter (58mm), utilizing a new split-rail structure.

This opens an ecosystem of professional third-party accessories. Beyond compatibility, the re-engineered structure provides smooth, damped tactile feedback during the locking motion, elevating the mechanical experience of the daily ritual.

3. Refined Shower Screen Design

Gen 2 features a redesigned shower screen that utilizes a two-stage diffusion process. The system manages initial pressure diffusion before delivering an evenly dispersed flow across the coffee bed.

Improved puck saturation and a reduced risk of channeling. This hardware-level refinement increases extraction consistency, even when puck preparation is less than ideal.

Co-engineered with TIMEMORE

In collaboration with TIMEMORE, a commercial-grade grinder was crafted featuring patented conical burrs designed exclusively for Meraki. The grinder ensures consistent particle size distribution through multi-stage engineering calibration and fine-tuning, delivering exceptional coffee quality every time.

The Evolution Continues

Meraki Gen 2 is the result of iterative engineering—taking a proven power base and refining it to offer new possibilities. It represents the next step in the journey toward the perfect, uncompromised cup.

Espresso At Home No Trade-Offs

Thinking about espresso at home—but concerned about potential compromises?

Too much to learn. Inconsistent results. Never quite café-level.

This isn’t about skill or experience. It's how most traditional espresso machines used to be built.

Meraki brings commercial-level capability into an effortless daily workflow.

 

Commercial Power, Made for Home

• Stable pressure. Consistent shots.
• Dry, powerful steam. Ready when needed.
• Espresso-focused grind precision.

Commercial-Grade Rotary Pump

Consistent pressure, even as grind and dose change.

Shots stay predictable, not sensitive or temperamental.

That's why cafes rely on rotary pumps—now built into a home machine.

Even flow, with thicker, richer crema.

Dual Boiler System

Dry steam with high pressure, so milk stays textured—not diluted.

Powerful steam delivers energy fast, shortening total steaming time. Brew and steam together.

No waiting. No workflow breaks.
Just like in a café.

Grind Precision Refined for Espresso

Co-engineered with TIMEMORE®. Tuned specifically for espresso.

Consistent particle size for more even extraction.

Dial in once. Stay consistent every morning.

Dual-Stage Shower Screen

A dual-stage diffusion design distributes water evenly across the puck—for consistent saturation and stable results, shot after shot.

Café-Level Results Effortless at Home

Grind by weight. Brew by weight.
Consistent results, shot after shot.

Milk steaming handled automatically,
Effortless in daily use, yet with full control available.

Consistent Results, Powered by Gravimetric Scales

Time-based shots vary. Weight-based shots repeat.

That’s how cafés stay consistent, even during their busiest hours.

Now the same process happens automatically at home.

Effortless Brewing, Guided by a Smart Touchscreen

Clear step-by-step guidance throughout the entire workflow.

Auto or manual brewing—with full control available in either mode.

Milk steaming stops automatically, right at the set temperature.

Compact Design, Premium Presence

Designed to save counter space without feeling small or cramped.

Minimalist form, with a premium, refined finish.

Expert Brewing Thoughtfully Assisted

Powered by CoffeeSense™

Scan the coffee. Settings load instantly.
Grind, brew, and steam—with settings automatically dialed in.
Great coffee, from the very first cup.
