Gaggia 2 group lever gas dual fuel espresso machine, off grid coffee making
Gaggia 2 group LPG or electric coffee machine. Let's list what a lever machine doesn't have that can go wrong.
A voltage transformer, key pads, ribbon cables, temperature sensor, triacs(element control switches) flow sensors, water level sensors, water level probes, solenoids, solenoid cables, power switches... It has 3 seals that need replacing once every year...On LPG (gas) heating, the boiler is kept at a set pressure by a gas regulator.. This will go wrong if you take it off the machine and drive over it in a car. Otherwise it will not go wrong. As you use the machine, the drop in pressure causes the gas flame to rise and heat the boiler back to the correct pressure. The lever groups weigh about 3 tons..
Not via an ecu module... Or any other electronic circuit board..
You might think why such complex electronics in "push button" machines co exist within a steam and hot water environment... And just keep working with all that moisture, milk and "whoops"... When a staff member spills a cup on the top of the machine.. That's why all coffee machine engineers run around in top end vans and service vehicles... The machine electronics go wrong.... Yes, some environments do require a fast level of automation... And if an electronic problem needs attention...Times 3(months)=12,000... But then, if you miss a busy saturday... And Monday as the engineer is busy... That's a few grand lost in sales.
Don't rock up to work with a broken arm.. hey, someone has to pull the lever down! You will not have a machine problem. The lever does have one other working "bit" in it.... And, last time I changed a spring, it was 30 years old... Let's put a new one in. That's around 48,000 times 30...1,440,000 cups... Service costs every 30 years... That's why no one sells a lever machine who owns one.And has no further use for his machine... We have 22 years in coffee... Angry customers with a broken machine they own... We deal with coffee brokers in Antwerp...
They have about 10,000 tons of coffee for sale... And we deal with the engineering shop where the old boys make obsolete gears for our vintage roasters and machine parts.
What you won't get is BS. Nor do we have a website...
It's busy enough thanks! (the holy grail of coffee machine brands) are re launching the lever coffee machine... And so do 2,553 coffee bars in Naples. You will stand out with a lever machine...And in a highly competitive market that is somewhat saturated... Isn't that the idea? That give you an excellent cup... You will need your own coffee roaster...
