flanders Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 Item: La Pavoni Europiccola or Professional lever coffee machine. Location: Castlemaine, VIC. Price: Depends on condition/age. I'm sick of paying $4 for a mediocre coffee here in Castlemaine, so want to step up from a stovetop and start making good espresso at home. I've used a big Victoria Arduino lever machine before (working in a cafe), so I know what I'm in for. If you're in Melbourne or elsewhere in Victoria I can pick up. Please PM with details.

Clever. I've been using a La Pavoni Stradivari for years and love it to bits even though it's possibly the most frustrating thing I've ever owned!

murrmax Posted February 8, 2018 Share Posted February 8, 2018 I couldn't live without my La Pavoni Europiccola it does make great espresso, even with the Italian engineering; but I reckon the Elektra is a better machine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flanders Posted February 8, 2018 Author Share Posted February 8, 2018 Thanks for the link @swervyn, if I was in Tassie I'd check it out - only holiday there once a year unfortunately! @Grizzly, yeah, the spring gasket would improve consistency I think. Other than that the La Pavoni is pretty much the same, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Krispy Audio Posted February 8, 2018 Share Posted February 8, 2018 (edited) I've had an Elektra for about a year now and love it! The spring may give you a little more consistency. Edited February 8, 2018 by Krispy Audio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
