CREM EX3 2 Group Display Espresso Machine + 11.5L Boiler - White/Oak Takeaway Cup Version
Precision Brewing with the PID Display
The CREM EX3 2 Group Display Espresso Machine delivers professional-grade performance with PID temperature control and a digital display for precise shot timing and thermal monitoring. Its 11.5-litre boiler maintains consistent steam pressure during peak service, making it ideal for busy specialty coffee operations demanding exceptional extraction quality.
Optimised for the Takeaway Environment
Engineered specifically for the fast-paced "to-go" market, the Takeaway (High Group) configuration of the EX3 provides the essential clearance required for modern service. With an increased height between the group heads and the drip tray, baristas can brew directly into large 12oz or 16oz takeaway cups, significantly improving workflow efficiency and reducing the need for secondary shot pots. This ergonomic advantage, paired with the machine’s customisable aesthetics and smart design, ensures it fits seamlessly into any high-street cafe or bustling transport hub.

Crem EX3 2-Group: Control vs Display vs Takeaway
Choosing a commercial espresso machine is a bit like choosing a new car; the base model is great, but the "trim level" makes all the difference to your daily drive. The Crem EX3 2-Group is a multi-award-winning powerhouse, but it comes in three distinct configurations: Control, Display, and Takeaway.
Here is the breakdown of how they stack up against each other.
1. EX3 Control: The Reliable Workhorse
The Control is the standard entry point for the EX3 range. It features a robust 5-button volumetric keypad for programmed dosing, but it keeps things simple.
-
Best for: High-street cafes and bistros that want Crem's legendary reliability without the extra "bells and whistles."
-
Key Tech: Pressure switch control (mechanical temperature management) and standard group height.
-
The Vibe: No-nonsense, consistent espresso.
2. EX3 Display: The Barista’s Choice
The Display model is where things get technical. Instead of a simple keypad, you get independent digital displays for each group head.
-
Best for: Speciality coffee shops and venues where precision is paramount.
-
Key Tech: Includes PID Control, allowing you to digitally adjust the boiler temperature to the degree. The screens act as shot timers and show the boiler temperature in real-time.
-
The Vibe: Total control over the extraction process for that "perfect" shot.
3. EX3 Takeaway: The "Tall Cup" Specialist
Technically, "Takeaway" (or High Group) is an option that can be applied to both the Control and Display models, though it is often sold as a standalone configuration.
-
Best for: High-volume shops where the "Latte-to-go" is king.
-
Key Tech: Raised group heads that provide enough clearance for 12oz or 16oz takeaway cups to sit directly under the portafilter. It usually comes with a pull-out stand for smaller espresso cups.
-
The Vibe: Speed and efficiency during the morning rush.
| Control | Display | Takeaway (High Group) | |
|---|---|---|---|
| User Interface | 5-Button Keypad | Digital Group Displays | Varies (usually 5-button) |
| Temp. Control | Pressure Switch | PID Digital Control | Varies |
| Shot Timers | No | Yes (on display) | Varies |
| Cup Clearance | Standard (approx. 85mm) | Standard (approx. 85mm) | Tall (approx. 125mm) |
| Eco Mode | No | Yes | Optional |
