Pump - The Rituale uses a 52-watt vibratory pump that provides the exact
pressures needed to deliver perfect espresso. The lines from the pump,
to the boiler, and from the boiler to the group head are all commercial
grade items, with a big, beefy piece of cast brass helping to complete
the trip. Other machines may feel the need to advertise their BAR
rating; the Venus doesn't have to - it's a given the machine has the
power to spare.
