The Astoria Perla is available in the following versions:
The Astoria Perla AL is the lever-operated version of this espresso machine. Unlike modern pump-driven machines, this model uses the pressure of a compression spring in the group head to achieve the necessary brewing pressure. If you're searching for parts specific to this lever-operated version, you can find them on our dedicated website for lever machines: Brooks Espresso Machines.
The Astoria Perla AEP is the basic manual model of the Perla series. It lacks a flowmeter, so the barista must manually start and stop the brewing process. This machine is available with 1 to 4 brewing groups, offering flexibility for different types of coffee shops. The 1 and 2-group models are available in 120V configurations, while the larger versions (3 and 4-group models) are only produced in 230/400V configurations.
For parts like the motor, pump, and brewing components, this model is straightforward and reliable, making it ideal for businesses seeking manual control over espresso brewing.
The Astoria Perla SAE is the high-end version of the Perla series, equipped with volumetric dosing. This version features a touchpad, allowing the barista to select preset coffee options with ease. The SAE model is available in 1 to 4 brewing groups, and like the AEP, the smaller models (1 and 2-group) come in 120V configurations, while the larger models are available in 230/380V versions. This automated version of the Perla is ideal for cafes and restaurants that require consistency in their coffee output.
The Astoria Perla espresso machine is available in a variety of configurations to suit different coffee brewing needs, from the lever-operated AL version to the volumetric SAE model. Whether you need parts for manual control, brewing groups, or automated systems, Brooks Parts offers a wide selection of components to help you maintain and repair your Astoria Perla machine.
