When the morning line hits the door, your equipment is either a tool or a bottleneck. This machine is for the operator who treats consistency as a non-negotiable metric, because a reputation is built on the tenth shot of the rush being identical to the first. The use of AISI 316L 'Cool Touch' Wands reflects a design meant for the heat of a high-volume shift where speed and safety cannot be trade-offs. It signals to everyone behind the counter and everyone in front of it that the coffee is the entire point of the room.

Product Features

Soft Pre-Infusion Flow Active System

Programmable pre-infusion lets you control water flow, time and pressure to reduce channeling and lock in consistent flavor across shifts. For a busy bar this means repeatable shot profiles that hold up under changing dose and tamp conditions.

Multi-Boiler System

Independent boilers with PID-regulated control give each group its own stable temperature envelope, supplying consistent extraction and uninterrupted steam production during high-volume service. The Cafe Racer uses individual 17 lb / 8 kg steel heating chambers per group for competition-level thermal stability.

Volumetric Controls

Programmable buttons automate shot volumes to speed throughput and reduce human error during peak service. Paired with a high-performance volumetric pump, the machine maintains stable pressure across multiple groups under heavy demand.

Smart-touch Control

Integrated digital screens on each group provide real-time monitoring and on-the-fly programming of pressures, temperatures and group settings, so technicians and baristas can calibrate performance quickly. The digital display monitoring simplifies setup and diagnostics for a commercial environment.

AISI 316L 'Cool Touch' Wands

AISI 316L steam wands use anti-burning technology and high-performance latte-art tips to stay comfortable to the touch even during extended service. Durable construction and ergonomic tips help baristas steam milk faster and with more control throughout a shift.

Energy-Saving System

Heavy insulation reduces energy draw—Sanremo rates the Cafe Racer to cut energy use by up to 40%—helping lower utility costs during long service hours. The design also supports efficient steam recovery so the boiler system spends less time rebuilding pressure between pulls.

The Coffeeionado Take

Who's It For:

  • High-volume specialty cafés — Multi-boiler system with a 13L copper boiler and custom group heads deliver the thermal mass and precision needed for 250–450 drink days
  • Roasteries showcasing single-origin espresso — Programmable volumetric dosing and PID-controlled temperature let you dial in profiles for different beans with repeatable accuracy
  • Established coffee programs upgrading from entry-level commercial — AISI 316L cool-touch wands and commercial-grade construction signal a commitment to both barista safety and long-term reliability

Right For You If:

  • You are pulling 250–450 drinks a day and temperature stability during peak hours is a non-negotiable requirement for your program.
  • Your baristas are experienced and you want them to save and reproduce custom profiles — this machine rewards skilled operators with consistent results.
  • You have 220–240V power and direct plumbing, and you need a machine built for the daily grind of a high-traffic café.

Things to Consider:

  • The 25–45 minute warm-up and multi-boiler architecture mean this machine needs a proper morning routine — it is not a power-on-and-go setup.
  • Custom group heads are a Sanremo specialty, but service and parts availability depend on your local distributor — confirm technician access before committing.
  • AutoSteam is available as an optional upgrade but not standard — if automated milk texturing matters for your workflow, budget for it upfront.

Our Take:

The Renegade Cafe Racer is Sanremo building a machine for the café that has stopped experimenting and started committing — the 13L copper boiler and multi-boiler precision mean you are buying thermal stability that holds up through the worst Saturday rush. If your shop has outgrown its equipment and you need a machine that matches your ambition, this is the one.

Sanremo Cafe Racer

Touchscreen Features

Automate and control the parameters of extraction with a touchscreen that provides greater precision. Program up to 4 doses, what days it turns on and even the cleaning. You can also access maintenance and analytics displays.

Coffee Delivery System (CDS)

The CDS pioneered by Sanremo gives the barista greater control. With the CDS you can control all three phases of extraction (pre-infusion, infusion, post-infusion) and adjust for different parameters.

Automatic Espresso Machine

Automatic espresso machines have revolutionized the way baristas operate in coffee shops, allowing them to focus on other tasks while still producing high-quality espressos. With programmable doses, baristas can set specific measurements for each shot of espresso, ensuring consistency and efficiency in the brewing process. This feature not only helps save time but also maintains the quality and flavor of the final product. Meanwhile, they can also focus on other tasks such as taking money, steaming milk, or other work tasks.

Automatic Espresso Machine

Efficiency to Perform

The Cafe Racer has a multi-boiler system that separates the water circuits, allowing the machine to generate steam and simultaneously maintain optimal control parameters for the extraction of coffee in terms of temperature and pressure, one espresso after another, during long periods of operation and intense workload.

Thermostability

Exclusively designed by Sanremo, the grouphead is manufactured from AISI 316 Stainless Steel. This, coupled with the multi-boiler system, ensures highly accurate thermal stability and maximum resistance to oxidation and lime scale in the group.

Water Quality & Machine Protection

Proper water quality is essential for optimal espresso extraction and long-term machine health. Use the guidelines below to ensure your machine performs at its best.

Parameter Ideal Range Why It Matters
Total Hardness 50-170 ppm Prevents scale buildup while maintaining flavor
pH Level 6.5-7.5 Ensures balanced extraction and protects internal components
Chlorine 0 ppm Eliminates off-flavors and prevents corrosion
TDS (Total Dissolved Solids) 70-150 ppm Optimal mineral content for extraction and taste
Total Alkalinity ~7.0 Stabilizes acidity and extraction
Chloride 0-28 ppm Prevents corrosion (especially in steel boilers)

Important Note

Always refer to your machine's manual for specific water quality recommendations and maintenance schedules.

Advisory

Install a water filtration system to maintain consistent water quality and extend the life of your espresso machine.

What This Means

  • Water that’s too hard → scale buildup, reduced performance
  • Water that’s too soft → flat, dull espresso
  • Improper water can damage internal components over time

Machine-Specific Considerations

  • These guidelines are safe for most home espresso machines
  • Some machines (especially with stainless steel boilers) require stricter limits on chlorides

What We'd Tell You In Store

How to Choose a Commercial Espresso Machine

How to choose a commercial espresso machine based on real volume numbers, peak hour output, and drink mix — not vague categories.

How to Choose a Commercial Grinder

Your espresso machine gets all the attention. The grinder does all the work. Every variable that determines shot quality — particle size, extraction evenness, dose consistency — starts at the grinder.

How to Design Your Cafe: Build Your Bar for the Rush

Design your café bar for peak volume, not average traffic. Equipment layout, station design, staffing ratios, and tools that remove steps — what actually matters during the rush.

Setting Up Your Commercial Espresso Machine Right

Water pressure, electrical specs, drain slope, filter flushing — what actually goes into a commercial espresso machine setup, and what gets skipped.

Product FAQ

Does the Sanremo Renegade Cafe Racer 2 Group have a rotary pump or a vibration pump?

The Sanremo Renegade Cafe Racer 2 Group is equipped with a commercial-grade rotary pump, designed for consistent pressure delivery, quieter operation, and long-term durability suitable for a professional café environment.

Is this machine direct-plumbed only, or can it be used with a water tank?

The Cafe Racer 2 Group is designed as a direct-plumbed commercial espresso machine and must be connected to a mains water line. It does not include an internal water reservoir for pour-over operation.

Does the Cafe Racer 2 Group offer programmable pre-infusion?

Yes. The machine includes programmable pre-infusion settings, allowing you to adjust the pre-wet time and pressure for each group to improve extraction consistency and flavor clarity.

Are the steam wands cool-touch or no-burn?

Yes. The Renegade Cafe Racer 2 Group comes with cool-touch (no-burn) steam wands, helping to prevent burns and making it easier to clean off milk residue after steaming.

How many boilers does the Sanremo Cafe Racer 2 Group have, and are they individually controlled?

The Cafe Racer 2 Group is a multi-boiler machine. Each group has its own dedicated brew boiler, and there is a separate steam boiler. Temperatures for each brew boiler and the steam boiler can be controlled independently through the machine’s electronics.

Are brew temperatures and pressure easily adjustable by the barista?

Yes. Brew temperatures can be set individually for each group via the digital control interface, and the pump pressure can be adjusted through the machine’s internal settings, allowing fine-tuning for different coffees and recipes.

Does the machine support volumetric dosing, or is it manual only?

The Sanremo Renegade Cafe Racer 2 Group is an automatic (volumetric) machine. Each group has programmable dose buttons so you can set consistent shot volumes, while still having a manual start/stop option for full barista control.

What kind of power requirements does the 2-group Cafe Racer have for US installations?

For US installations, the Cafe Racer 2 Group typically requires a 220–240V, 30A dedicated circuit (single-phase), plus proper grounding. Exact electrical specifications can vary slightly by configuration, so it’s best to confirm with your distributor and electrician before installation.

How does free installation work?

We want to make your purchase as smooth as possible and will pay the installation via rebate on commercial espresso machines. This includes commercial machines with more than 1 group head and 220V.

If the certified installer needed is over 1.5 hours away then we will pay for the installation call (and install up to the value suggested on page minus call fee). Travel will be paid by customer. Inquire if you have any questions about your location.


Please note, any discounts subject to void the paid installation offer.

At Coffeeionado, professional installation is included with qualifying espresso machine purchases. Our goal is to make the process as seamless as possible — from coordinating the technician to getting your machine up and running on day one.

Which Machines Qualify

Free professional installation is included with all espresso machines of 2 groups or more where indicated on the product listing. This policy applies to espresso machines only and does not cover other coffee equipment such as grinders, brewers, or accessories.

If you are unsure whether your machine qualifies, contact us before purchasing and we'll confirm.

What's Included

  • Travel and labor costs for installation within the technician's service area (up to 2 hours of travel)
  • Setup, basic programming, and commissioning of the equipment
  • Scheduling during regular business hours, Monday through Friday
  • Associated taxes and fees related to the installation itself

Installation must be completed within 30 days of delivery of the equipment. The installation benefit lapses after this window and cannot be reinstated.

How Installation Is Arranged

Depending on your purchase, installation is handled one of two ways:

Arranged directly — In many cases, Coffeeionado or the manufacturer will coordinate and pay the technician on your behalf. We will contact you after your order is processed to schedule the visit.

Reimbursement — In some cases, you may be asked to arrange the installation locally using an authorized technician and submit a rebate form for reimbursement. Once approved, the covered amount will be refunded to the original payment method used for your order.

We will confirm which arrangement applies to your purchase at the time of order confirmation. If you have questions before purchasing, contact us and we'll walk you through it.

What's Not Included

The following are outside the scope of the installation policy and remain the customer's responsibility:

  • Travel or callout costs beyond the first 2 hours of the technician's travel time — if your location falls outside the local service area, the overage is your responsibility
  • Water filtration systems and installation materials — including plumbing fittings, tubing, plugs, outlets, and any other ancillary components required to prepare the site
  • Electrical or plumbing work — site preparation must be completed before the technician arrives
  • Training on equipment operation — installation covers commissioning only, not barista or operational training
  • False start or callout fees if the technician arrives and the site is not ready for installation

Important: If a technician arrives and cannot complete the installation because the site is unprepared, you will be responsible for any callout or false start fee charged by the technician. However, your installation benefit remains intact — the visit will be rescheduled at no additional cost to your policy.

Water Filtration Requirement

Water filtration must be installed and operational before or at the time of installation. This is not optional — operating a commercial espresso machine without proper filtration will void the manufacturer's warranty. If filtration is not in place at the time of the technician's visit, installation may need to be rescheduled and the callout fee will be your responsibility.

If you need guidance on water filtration requirements for your machine, contact us before scheduling your installation.

Service Area

Installation coverage is tied to the manufacturer's authorized technician service area, generally within a 1.5-hour radius of the nearest certified technician. If your location falls outside this area, Coffeeionado will make reasonable efforts to arrange a local authorized technician, but travel costs beyond the 2-hour coverage limit remain your responsibility.

Not sure if you're in a service area? Contact us before purchasing and we'll check your location.

After Installation

Once your machine is installed, we'll provide referrals for authorized service technicians in your area for ongoing maintenance and repairs. Coffeeionado offers lifetime support on all equipment we sell — we're here long after the install is done.

Governing Terms

This installation policy forms part of your agreement with Coffeeionado and is subject to our Terms of Sale and Terms of Service. In the event of any conflict, the Terms of Service governs.

Can I pick up the machine at your store?

We do not have a showroom or storefront for customer pickups, so orders cannot be picked up directly from us. That said, there is an exception for La Spaziale and La Pavoni products, you can contact us to arrange.

However, if you'd prefer, we can arrange to have your machine shipped to a local freight terminal/location for pickup instead. Let us know your city/state (or ZIP code), and we’d be happy to check the nearest terminal options for you.
