Grinder: Fiorenzato t-80 Vac Pot: Good ole' Moca Pot Posted Fri Aug 22, 2008, 7:59am Subject: Can anybody identify the mystery espresso machine?   This is an Illy branded machine.  I can't find a single piece of information about it anywhere.  Anyone have specs? Manufacturer? Anything? It is supposedly a machine that was sold to restaurants for around $600-$800.  It takes...you guessed it...Illy pods. It was made in Switzerland Thanks! back to top grin_and_tonic Senior Member Joined: 23 Jul 2007 Posts: 11 Location: Tampa, FL Expertise: I love coffee Espresso: La Pavoni Pub EM, Olympia...

Was it made in the '80s?

Sharper pictures would help, as would a picture inside the machine. Did you try calling Illy to see if a parts guy can ID it? back to top view previous topic | view next topic | view all topics Discussions > Espresso > Machines > Can anybody...   updated topics   new posts   new unanswered     search   faq   sign up   Not Logged in: log in Discussions Quick Jump: Select Espresso Discussions --Espresso Machines --Lever Espresso Machines --Grinders - Espresso --Espresso Mods and Restorations --Espresso Blends --Questions and Answers --Latte Art and Etching --Barista Jams Around the World --General Discussion Coffee Discussions --Machines and Brewing Methods --Home Roasting Talk --Questions and Answers --General Discussion Columns, How-Tos, and Reviews --Holiday Gift List Feedback --CoffeeGeek Columnist Feedback --Detailed Review Feedback --Products First Look Feedback --Quickshot Review Feedback --Guide Article Feedback --How-To Article Feedback --CoffeeGeek Podcast Feedback Members Forum --Bug Reports and Suggestions --Buy, Sell and Trade --Retail Coffee Jobs Offered / Wanted Ads --Coffee Recipes --Cafe and Bean Reviews --CoffeeGeek Site Info and News --General Off Topics World Regional --United States West --United States Central --United States East --Western Canada --Eastern Canada --United Kingdom --Western Europe --Eastern Europe, Nordic Countries, and Russia --Central and South America --Australia, New Zealand and Asia Symbols: = New Posts since your last visit      = No New Posts since last visit     = Newest post Forum Rules: No profanity, illegal acts or personal attacks will be tolerated in these discussion boards.
