Introducing the ARO Orbit PRO™, the ultimate professional-grade spirographic espresso distribution tool. Crafted from durable aluminum and featuring precision ball bearings, the ARO Orbit PRO™ is engineered for both dedicated home baristas and professional cafés. We've optimized every aspect of this tool – from meticulously engineered gear ratios and pin placements to an ultra-smooth mechanism that spins with the touch of a finger. Elevate your espresso with unmatched consistency in every pull. Perfectly fluffed and distributed baskets of espresso are just a few spins away.
Here's a quick geometry lesson: Hypotrochoids and epitrochoids are curves defined by tracing a point attached to a circle that's rolling along the inside or outside of a fixed circle, respectively. Spirographs use this concept to create dazzling geometric patterns. The ARO Orbit PRO™ utilizes this mechanical motion to efficiently distribute and fluff the grounds ensuring a consistent extraction every time, no matter how early in the morning it is.
Key Features
- Durable Aluminum Construction: Built to endure the most demanding environments, the aluminum housing is provides a sleek, professional appearance while ensuring superior strength and longevity. Finished with a premium, scratch-resistant matte black anodize, it resists wear and corrosion, maintaining its pristine look over time.
- Precision Ball Bearings: Equipped with maintenance-free, sealed ball bearings for an ultra-smooth mechanism that effortlessly rotates with the touch of a finger.
- Novel and Innovative Gear Design: Features three separate gears working in harmony for optimal mixing, distribution, and fluffing in as little as four spins. The extended-armed gear whips the pins at high velocities slicing through any clumps in its path. The short-armed gear bounces the pins back and forth across the basket to scramble and mix the grounds, ensuring even distribution and a level bed. The small gear pushes and pulls grounds near the edge for complete basket coverage.
- Precision Pins with Plenty of Spares: Utilizes 10x, 0.25mm diameter pins to trace dozens of hypotrochoids and epitrochoids, distributing and fluffing espresso grounds in your portafilter basket. 20x pins are included in every order.
- Adjustable Needle Length: Features the ability to adjust the needle length for a custom fit with virtually any portafilter basket depth.
- Magnetic Portafilter Attachment: Equipped with 9 powerful neodymium magnets to enable one-hand operation on most* portafilter baskets. It auto-aligns for a secure grip, ensuring consistent and efficient distribution every time.
- Efficient Distribution: Spirographic mechanical motion ensures consistency and fluffs grounds in seconds, providing a uniform and level espresso bed. Ideal for commercial cafés where every second counts!
*Note: The magnetic portafilter attachment works best on baskets that attract magnets. For non-magnetic baskets, two-handed operation may be necessary.
