Talk Coffee

The hugely talented Phil | Designer & Artist at work on a beautiful new look for my personal vintage Faema Urania.

More to come! 😍

🤨 Riiiiiiiight. No $79 espresso machine produces coffee which I’d consider cleaning my toilet with let alone drinking. This one absolutely reeks… 💩

For Sale. Price Negotiable. This is probably the most under-utilised Mahlkonig EK43 in Australia. It's averaged about 500g/month and unsurprisingly the burrs look brand new.

We need a smaller bag grinder, so here’s your opportunity for a bargain brew bar grinder. This grinder is genuinely as new.

RRP is a hefty $6.6k inc now for one of these, so here’s your opportunity to have that WBC winning grinder at under half price. DM if you'd like it and then come and collect it!

Wise, wise words from 👏👏👏. In an internet full of hype and sales pitches, this is refreshing.

It may be the GOAT 😲.

Kaching! 💰💸 Recognise the shower screen impression? People keep buying these 💩 ninja star things. We keep fixing the damage they cause- at our hourly rate. “Water flow issues”… You don’t say?

Proprietary bits which waste service time and money. Case in point:

Most manufacturers will place a pressurestat (the bit with the wires on it to the left) on a simple riser and then power it. It does the job perfectly. Quickmill… “Hold my beer”…🙄🤦‍♂️🤷‍♂️

Before v After in the form of two beautiful heirloom machines at Greg’s place. 😍

For Sale. Our light use Mahlkonig EK43 grinder. Espresso, filter cold drip etc. The TC EK 43 has outgrown available space and has to go.

Our EK is the most underutilised piece of equipment we have as our clients are well trained and have their own grinders. It would literally average 1kg per month- or less.

We need the space back, so it will be replaced by a small bag grinder which will also do pretty much nothing. A recent pulldown has the burrs unmarked and as new. I honestly could not detect any wear whatsoever. This grinder is genuinely as new.

RRP is a hefty $6.6k inc now for one of these, so here’s your opportunity to have that WBC winning grinder at under half price.

SOLD. My personal Mahlkonig E65S GBW grind by weight grinder. Excellent condition and just 140kg ground.

DM for details.

SOLD. Relisted for sale. Barn find, fully restored 1977 Cremina 1977.

Sympathetic restoration with full OEM gasket kit, new OEM element and OEM naked portafilter.

DM for details or see our website.

What’s the saying? “Brothers from a different” ….or was it sisters? Whatever it is, these two from ECM (Milan- as it was in those days) are special. The Giotto Premium we all know well. I love them!

On the right though is a super rare ECM Veneziano VS1 which is in for service. Australian examples can be counted on a hand and worldwide production has them in the tens. If machines are sexed, we recognise the Veneziano by its distinctive hips, as compared to the shoulders of the Giotto. For me, the Veneziano is every bit as iconic as the legendary Faema e-61.

I owned a VS1 once. It replaced a Giotto Premium. Why did I ever sell it?? 🤦‍♂️

Not all espresso machines go to SA to die.

Check out Ben’s beautiful Giotto EVO. It’s just celebrated its 10th birthday 🎂 and still looks brand new 🤩.

It’s so good to see a loved machine. Nice work Ben 👏👏👏

Twins! Still my all time favourite Giotto.

A very caring owner gave us a bring this back to life and make it new brief for the one on the right. Check out the bag of parts it scored! 😲

Just joking! 😝

New blog out today… Apartment coffee. Which to choose?
