It takes the compact dual-boiler LITA platform that earned its reputation for café-grade shots in a small footprint and rebuilds its heart around two things serious baristas ask for: a \u003cstrong\u003ecommercial-grade gear pump\u003c\/strong\u003e and a \u003cstrong\u003ephysical electronic flow paddle\u003c\/strong\u003e on the group.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is the first machine in Wendougee's SMART home line to put tactile, real-time flow control directly under your hand. Where the LITA BA and LA profile pressure and flow through the touch disc and the E-Bar app, the Sigma adds the analogue feel of a lever — the same philosophy behind machines like the Lelit Bianca and La Marzocco Leva, now on Wendougee's quiet gear-pump architecture borrowed from the flagship Data S.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eFurthermore, it uses an Italian \u003ca rel=\"noopener\" title=\"Italian GICAR high pressure flow meter for Volume control, usually used in commercial machines La La Marzocco\" href=\"https:\/\/gicarsrl.com\/en\/product\/fm57rt-ruveco-t-e-a-metallic-models\/#titoloprodotto\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eGICAR\u003c\/a\u003e Flow meter,  German \u003ca rel=\"noopener\" title=\"High-quality German made pressure sensor and transmitter\" href=\"https:\/\/www.wika.com\/en-en\/pressure_sensors.WIKA\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eWIKA\u003c\/a\u003e Pressure Sensor and \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.wika.com\/en-en\/pressure_gauges.WIKA\" title=\"WIKA German made high quality pressure gauge\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eWIKA\u003c\/a\u003e Pressure Gauge,\u003cstrong\u003e \u003c\/strong\u003eall\u003cstrong\u003e \u003c\/strong\u003ehigh-quality commercial-grade components.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eIt also integrates with compatible grinders like the \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/vellutto.eu\/products\/wendougee-milo-play\" title=\"Wendougee MILO Play Precision Single-Dose Grinder\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eWendougee MILO\u003c\/a\u003e and \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/vellutto.eu\/products\/wendougee-ares\" title=\"Wendougee Ares Commercial Coffee Grinder — Professional 90mm Grinder for Cafés, Restaurants and Specialty Coffee Shops\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eARES\u003c\/a\u003e.

The result is a noticeably quieter machine and smoother, more linear control over pressure and flow throughout the shot — the foundation that makes true profiling possible.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eElectronic flow paddle.\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA physical paddle on the group head gives you direct, mid-shot command of flow. Open gently for a long, gentle pre-infusion; ramp into peak pressure for body; taper the tail to control astringency — all by feel, all in real time, no menus. It's the part of the Sigma you'll feel in the cup from the first shot.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDual-boiler thermal stability.\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Sigma is built on Wendougee's saturated dual-boiler LITA architecture: independent brew and steam circuits so you can pull and steam simultaneously, with PID-managed temperature stability shot after shot.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCompact, considered design.\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe LITA platform fits a genuine dual-boiler machine into a footprint around 26 cm wide — engineered to look like a piece of design on the counter, not a piece of equipment. The paddle becomes the defining visual element of the group.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eApp-connected when you want it.\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Wendougee E-Bar app and optional Bluetooth scale integration let you save recipes and review pressure and flow curves — so the Sigma works as an intuitive lever machine and a data-driven one, on your terms.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWho it's for\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Sigma is for the home barista who has outgrown push-button espresso and wants to \u003cem\u003eshape\u003c\/em\u003e the shot — someone cross-shopping the Lelit Bianca V3, Profitec Pro 600, La Marzocco Linea Mini R or Arkel Coast, and who wants commercial pump hardware and lever-driven flow control without a commercial price tag or footprint.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe following core specifications are \u003cstrong\u003econfirmed for the Sigma\u003c\/strong\u003e:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e Single-group semi-automatic espresso machine\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePump:\u003c\/strong\u003e Commercial-grade gear pump\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlow control:\u003c\/strong\u003e Electronic flow paddle on the group head\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBoiler configuration:\u003c\/strong\u003e Dual boiler (independent brew + steam)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnectivity:\u003c\/strong\u003e Wendougee E-Bar app; Bluetooth scale compatible (scale sold separately)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cspan\u003eLearn more about \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.vellutto.eu\/pages\/wendougee\" class=\"underline underline underline-offset-2 decoration-1 decoration-current\/40 hover:decoration-current focus:decoration-current\"\u003eWendougee\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cspan\u003e.\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/h5\u003e","brand":"Wendougee","offers":[{"title":"Black","offer_id":61862874480970,"sku":"LITA_SIG_BK","price":3200.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"White","offer_id":61862874513738,"sku":"LITA_SIG_WH","price":3200.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1035\/1421\/0634\/files\/Wendougee_LITA_Sigma_White.webp?v=1779191060","url":"https:\/\/vellutto.eu\/products\/wendougee-lita-sigma-espresso-machine","provider":"Vellutto","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
