Upgradeitis takes another victim

An Izzo Alex Leva... What have I missed and why?? The PID Pompeii was already uber-incredible for those that wanted to spend $5k o(not rrp)n a single group lever. Someone better start a thread... I've got a lot of questions. Is one of our sponsors importing these?? Come on... Cosmorex, Jet Black, fess up.... Pedro... Jeff??.... NEIL?? ? My opening line in he new thread may be, if I wanted a machine with multiple personality disorder I'd have crossed a Londium with a Thermomix... Pull the lever and out comes soup. Now that's a category killer and the next big thing since the Breville Jaffle-Maker. I need more info!!! Secretly I reckon it might be cool... A double boiler with a lever.... More... Off to visit Dr Google

the truck pulled up on Friday rang the doorbell that we did not hear because we were upstairs. at the same time a friend came by and yelled out, I went down to the front yard and as we were chatting I noticed the truck had turned around and came back and looked at me and just kept going. Then I found a delivery attempt on my front door, I never thought it could get here so quickly otherwise I would have stopped the truck. now I must wait until Monday as they have gone back to Brisbane with it.

The $1200 Boema single group lever on gum tree the other week! That is my dibs 😉

Saw the Alex Lever on Google. Cool!! I would love to see a shoot out between Alex, Strega, Londierm and Achilles. Now that would be a pretty even race but I personally would be drawn to the PID double boiler Alex I reckon. I do love Galumay's machine best if I was to have a lever.... Come on C-man... What is it???

We had 3 guesses, tell us now or I'll ban you! 😉 :pan :coffee2: :tearhair:

C-man

the evil mod has spoken! well actually it has been guessed correctly 3 times now but with multiple guesses first single guess wins.

Lacehim

HG1 is my guess.

'Izzo Alex Leva' And where was he a year or two ago... A cheep $50 machine and a Hand grinder... http://www.bestcafes.com.au/forum/have-your-say/supped-up-sunbeam-(slayer-style)-action-video/

Strega!!

Brett_H

No... Izzo!!! :coffee2: :thumb: Imagine the meet up with all those levers!!

That leaves me to guess something close to my heart.... TR Rossa... What else could arrive to his door so quick? I'm pretty sure Ross (Spencer) is a Queenslander.....

C-man

we have a winner! Lacy wins it and will be the first to taste it. The big bad HG-one hand grinder...... 83mm TIN Mazzer burrs ordered Monday and arrived from USA on Friday expensive postage but fast. I always hated the fact there could be a better grinder out there. C-

Sensational mate! Look forward to your thoughts and your next upgrade :stir :rofl:

Ol_Grumpy

Way to go C-man..... Did you get the accessory so you can grind straight into the portafilter? ???

Lacehim

Make sure you get your doorbell fixed! I'll be over the as soon as it arrives! 🙂

Ol_Grumpy

He he he.... I have visions of a certain courier driver merrily grinding away at his coffee all weekend....

they said to use the tumble it comes with, I only saw a holder for the portafilter that I don't need because I always use a nakid They recommended the funnel wipers so I got them.

C-man

door bell is fixed and more beans ordered will let you know.
