History of Caffe Izzo

Always passionate about coffee:
Passion, love, and determination, from 1979 to today, have allowed us to create a unique espresso of its kind: our coffee is velvety, sweet, and fruity, a “chocolate” that can be recognized and appreciated even without sugar. A unique blend, the result of a perfect extraction by our lever machines designed to prepare the unmistakable Izzo espresso.

1996-1997
Traditional lever machines and the PID system:
After the introduction of our first coffee machines, in 1997 we started our production of lever machines that are added to the range of Made in Italy products made in our company. Among our flagships, the PID system that guarantees control and precision of the boiler temperature management.
1998
The introduction of pressurized cans:
The cans marketed by Izzo Caffè use pressurization for the first time: the preservation system in which the air in the can is replaced by an inert gas at a pressure higher than the atmospheric one. In this way the coffee obtains body, roundness, and intensity, while its fragrance lasts over time.

The strong entrepreneurial impulse, supported and supported by the commitment of an extremely qualified team of collaborators, leads to the opening of the first Izzo franchised restaurant.

With the new, faster, and more automatic extraction methods, capsules and pods are produced exclusively in our headquarters to guarantee the quality and sensation of true and traditional Neapolitan coffee even in single-portioned products.
