They say that the introduction of the pump espresso machine for the home was the cause of the decline in the market for home lever espresso machines. Ease of use, simplicity of design.....Here, Orphan Espresso tests out an early Quick Mill Automatica to see if this thesis is valid.

Very funny walk-through of one of the early, historic pump espresso machines with the irony that later designs came to dominate the market over lever espresso machines that are now becoming popular again.
ReplyDeleteD & B,
ReplyDeleteCool display of old QM gear, thanks. Although you always get extra points for the
vintage gear you have, I will have to question your scientific methods in this experiment. yes, i'm poking fun at you, but i dont know if the automatica was given a "fair shot", so to speak, in terms of the pulled shot and the "milk" frothing with water.
Keep up the good work with the Levers!!
