New illy Y3.3 Espresso and Drip Coffee Machine Takes Top Quality Single Serve Coffee to New Levels of Ease

NEW YORK, June 8, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- illycaffè, a global leader in sustainable high-quality coffee, today announced the latest addition to its line of modern-designed, single serve machines: the Y3.3 Iperespresso Espresso & Coffee Machine. An upgraded iteration of the popular Y3.2 system, the new Y3.3 pairs its predecessor's compact footprint and elegantly minimalist design with practical features that elevate the at-home, single cup coffee experience. Like the Y3.2, the Y3.3 is also remarkably versatile in its ability to prepare both café-quality espresso and smooth, rich drip coffee.

The Y3.3's features include an adjustable drip tray engineered for both drip and espresso preparations, energy-saving automatic off and on function eliminating any switches at the back of the machine, and one-step illuminated soft buttons that craft high-quality coffee with a single touch. Designed with a distinctly elegant Italian aesthetic by renowned architect, designer and art director Piero Lissoni, the machine's minimalistic, sophisticated design incorporates intuitive functionality and overall ease of use. The convenient Iperespresso single serve system uses proprietary technology that produces an unparalleled, extraordinarily rich, smooth taste that brings out the full character of illy's iconic single blend of 100% Arabica beans.

"We've seen a continued interest in coffee lovers seeking at-home coffee experiences that are convenient and inspiring within the comfort of their own surroundings," said Massimiliano Pogliani, CEO of illycaffè. "The Y3.3 builds on our heritage of innovation delivering barista quality coffee and espresso as result of our Iperespresso system, which creates consistency cup after cup to enjoy the unique illy blend."

The illy Y3.3 machine is perfectly compact. At under four inches wide, it fits any kitchen, office or space, and is now available through illy's e-shop and on Amazon for a retail price of $149.00 in four colors: White, Red, Black and Capetown Blue.

Consumers can also purchase their favorite variety of coffee or espresso Iperespresso capsules at any retailer where the machine is sold or receive automated deliveries through the customizable illy a casa subscription service.
