Espresso machine with no plastic contact [serious]

It will have to be a manual lever such as Cafelat Robot or La Pavoni Europiccola. Even $6000 La Marzocco machines use plastic for the water tank and cold water lines feeding the pump, as does the Cellini. Better quality semi-auto machines such as Cellini are all metal for the water lines and compone

Any point of buying a Silvia if Profitec Go is priced almost the same?

I would honestly look at idrinkcoffee.com and get a returned QuickMill Pippa if you want something at the price of a Gaggia E24 or a QuickMill Popup which will cost about 1250 as a return or open box. The quickmills are very good machines that are well made and come with very good stock parts, the s

Mara X - is this what I need? [$1900]

What makes you think the Appartamento will be much better? Heat exchangers are heat exchangers. With your one milky per day and preference for mid 1900’s look, consider a la pavoni europiccola

I’ve been noticing a lot of local roasters don’t mention if the beans are light / medium / dark roast - why not?

I usually alternate between Peruvian Hero from Coffee Max and Cool Kids from Sixpence (despite my emphatically being neither cool nor a kid). These work well with my La Pavoni Europiccola lever machine. All the Sixpence blends seem to mention fruity tones, while Coffee Max has its appropriately name

Colored bases

Thanks for your input. I think I saw your latest recolour somewhere online. With powdercoaring, my thoughts were that the powder coat colours might be more limited or not mixable. Then also the number of corrosion inhibiting primers could be a limitation. I was thinking of going in 2 different direc

Are spring lever machines really worth all that?

I have Lilet Mara and La Pavoni 1978, Europiccola. The lever is fantastic. Love them both but the lever makes better coffee.

What purchase felt expensive at the time but was completely worth it?

If we're talking coffee machines, I bought a LA PAVONI EUROPICCOLA. It was about $1200, so a little more expensive. But it's very reliable and self serviceable. No plastic parts, steams milk and makes amazing coffee. You can make your espresso coffee any way you like it. It's not automated in any wa

Espresso suggestion [$6000 budget]! Possible endgame?

I would get a lever machine with an attached steam wand like an Argos Odyssey or La Pavoni Europiccola. Pretty much ideal for traditional espresso paired with a high end traditional grinder.

Usability with Disability

I'd direct you to a more traditional lever like the La Pavoni Europiccola, Olympia Cremina, Flair, et al. Evenly applied pressure is as much about general safety as anything with the Robot.
