Posted Wed Dec 5, 2007, 2:27pm Subject: Krups Machine
OK, OK...I'll admit it...I own a Krups XP series machine. Since I bought that, I've been reading up on this subject of espresso, and learned quite a bit. I've spent a lot of time with my machine and gotten pretty good results...better than a lot of places I used to get espresso from. But, has anyone heard of/seen a way to make the XP machines have a un-pressurized filter. I'd be curious if this would make my shots better, I'm under the impression it would. It's still a couple of years till I can upgrade.
I'm still new to the board, let me know if this would be better else-ware.

Hello, I´m trying to start up a mobile coffee business(coffeebike) and I´m not sure which espresso machine would serve me best. I´ve been looking at the la pavoni pub 1EM and the Izzo Alex Duetto PID (Dual Boiler) whitch I like becuase of the pourover function and the fact that they only run on 110-120 volt, whitch is good because I will run it off of gas. The problem is that I can´t seem to find them on any european websites. This is important since I live in Copenhagen Denmark, hoping someone could tell me about any machines that are similar or even better for my purpose so I have some more options. BR Marlon Pate
Ps. I will probably be serving about 100 cups a day and I´m able to stock up in between as well.
