PM me your FB name and I’ll invite you. It’s actually a very friendly and helpful group of international Pavoni owners, much like the folks on this forum. I’ve learned a lot from it, as I have from this group.

I'm inspired and depressed at the same time. I love coffee and was looking for a cappuccino machine recently. Unable to find anything not made in the "Orient" I had given up. Then this appeared and I'm on the hunt again! Thanks DeQ

I honestly think a la marzocco linea mini is by far the best option for home use, It’s like the stainless steel submariner Rolex of the coffee machines. No-frills, it doesn’t have the steam punk look, Or that over decorated bicycle you see at Walmart, lol.
And there’s companies out there dedicated to resto moding them. Lol.
Plus, the resale value is probably the highest in their category.

I've been using a La Spaziale Vivaldi for the last 10 year or so. Bullet proof. I have played around with different grinders but like the consistency of the Spaz. I've been eyeing a Linea Mini or ECM Synchronika.
@Peter Coomaraswamy Some great Italian machines out there. Keep looking. Working on them is enjoyable too. As DQ demonstrated, the good ones are serviceable from the top to bottom. Don't underestimate the importance of a good grinder!

Grinder is just as important control Levines t, are use a Mahlkonig peak.
actually, Nespresso makes one of the best tasting coffe and at consistency, you just don’t get the show.
We all like to think we make the best coffe, even local coffee shops think they have the best tasting espresso, but unfortunately it mostly bitter, over extracted or way to bright (sour). And we pay 4-5 for a cup. I digress. Espresso is like tuning an old set of Solexs , either you know and you’re a master mechanic, or you’re learning.
I’m learning. here’s my R&D setup

no need to worry too much, i have heard of people discussing about water PH,...

Rex, i like this one: “Espresso is like tuning an old set of Solexs , either you know and you’re a master mechanic, or you’re learning”
point is that with coffee it is usually a certain level of chaos, say better uncertainty, i am unable to make good (to my taste) coffee every day, sometimes is regular, sometimes good, and sometimes excellent
you never know in advance
maybe it is part of the joy, i accept and love with it
here is the usual owner of an europiccola....
