Description
Precision Steam, Built for the Counter
Inconsistent milk texture ruins latte art before the pour even begins, and bulky traditional machines eat into limited café floor space across Indian cities. The Modbar Steam System solves both problems by moving steam generation under the counter, leaving baristas with a compact wand and total control over microfoam.
Modular Engineering, Italian Craftsmanship
As part of the ModBar family under the La Marzocco Group, the Steam System fuses Italian engineering heritage with a slim under-counter form factor. It integrates into any coffee bar layout without disrupting workflow, making it a natural fit for specialty coffee shops, upscale cafés, and dining establishments across India.
Benefits Baristas Notice First
- Frees up counter space with a fully under-counter steam module
- Produces silky microfoam consistently for latte art
- Reduces service downtime with easy right-hand access
- Cuts water waste with minimal purge requirements
- Recirculates water on demand via the refresh button
What Makes the Modbar Steam System Different
Double Wall Pro Touch Wand
A double-walled steam wand gives baristas a cooler-to-touch grip while maintaining full steam power for milk texturing.
Improved Dry Steam Performance
Dry steam output reduces excess moisture in the milk, resulting in tighter, more stable microfoam for latte art.
Minimal Purge Required
Less purging before steaming means faster turnaround during peak café hours and less wasted water.
Refresh Button
A dedicated refresh button recirculates water on demand, keeping the system ready without manual intervention.
Right-Hand Side Connections
Service connections sit on the right-hand side, giving technicians easy access without disrupting the bar setup.
Ergonomic, Customisable Design
An ergonomic handle designed specifically for the Steam System pairs with fully customisable tap colours and handle or portafilter finishes.
Café Counter vs. Serious Home Bar
On a busy café counter, the Modbar Steam System’s under-counter build and right-hand service access keep workflow uninterrupted during high-volume service. For the serious home barista building a custom coffee station, the same modular design allows the steam module to disappear beneath the counter, leaving a clean, minimal setup with café-grade steam control.
