    The ones I have worked with have a button or twist handle for boiling water. Since it uses it for making espesso anyway, why not have the option to pour some on top of a teabag?

    (I just re-read the question: to clarify, I meant proper, large, three-group espresso machines)

      I didn’t know they had a different spout on the side. I thought they would somehow want to get water from the high pressure outlet through the portafilter

        It makes sense until you have to scrape off the coffee ground from the screen every time you want tea : ).
