Bosch Series 4 Semi-Automatic Espresso Machine, PFG403C3 Silver

Experience barista-style coffee at home with the Bosch Series 4 semi-automatic espresso machine. Designed for coffee lovers who value hands-on brewing and everyday convenience, it lets you grind fresh beans, tamp the coffee, lock the portafilter in place and guide the brewing process yourself. From the aroma of freshly ground coffee to the final layer of crema, every step puts you in control. Professional coffee, made your way The 58 mm professional-sized portafilter brings an authentic café experience to your kitchen. The wider sieve supports consistent water flow through the ground coffee, helping to reduce the risk of channelling for a rich aroma, smooth taste and balanced extraction. With the Direct-to-Cup function, you can easily prepare espresso, lungo, americano, hot water or refreshing cold brew. Freshly ground coffee for rich flavour The integrated grinder delivers freshly ground coffee directly into the portafilter for rich flavour. With 30 grind settings, you can adjust the grind to suit different types of beans, roast levels and preparation styles. Even minor adjustments can influence aroma, body and crema. The anti-static grinding system guides the ground coffee neatly into the portafilter, helping to keep your machine clean. Full control for consistent results Great espresso starts with the right dose and an even tamp. Five preset dosing options help deliver consistent amounts, while the pause function lets you adjust the dose when needed. The integrated tamping mat keeps the portafilter stable while protecting your worktop. Together with the stainless steel tamper, it helps create an evenly compressed coffee puck. The right sieve for your espresso Single-walled sieves have multiple holes and rely on the coffee grounds to create pressure, giving you greater control but requiring a precise grind and technique. Double-walled sieves have an additional layer with a small exit hole that creates pressure, making them more forgiving of variations in grind and tamping. Master everything from frothing to latte art The milk frother creates fine, velvety milk froth for cappuccino, latte, flat white and barista-style latte art at home. Choose between hot milk and milk froth to suit your favourite coffee creation. The included stainless steel milk jug is designed for controlled frothing and pouring. Café-style results at home The thermoblock heater with PID technology keeps the brewing temperature precise and stable for balanced extraction. Adjustable temperatures from 90 to 96°C suit different beans and roast levels. The 15-bar pump pressure supports rich espresso with balanced taste, full aroma and a dense, hazelnut-brown crema. Easy to use and maintain The clear front control panel makes operation intuitive, from grinding and drink selection to adjusting temperature, drink volume and coffee amount. Integrated cleaning and descaling programmes help simplify maintenance. Selected dishwasher-safe parts, including the sieves and milk frothing nozzle, make everyday cleaning easier. The clear front control panel allows seamless control over grinding, drink selection, temperature, volume and dose.
