Hi,

I'm looking for a suitable and priceworthy 2grp espresso machine for use in a small bakery. With a few espressos/cappuccinos every other hour or so, the demand for coffee isn't huge (its not not a café). Nothing fancy, just a machine that does its job without a fuss.

I recently got an offer from a retailer of "Brera" espresso machines produced by Milano espresso machines http://www.milanoespressomachines.com/index.html . I've never heard of this brand before and there is not much background information nor any reviews online; it seems I can't find anything written about them at all.

What do you people think about it and how do you reason?

While posting, I'd also be grateful for any comments/tips on the matter. What machine would suit us best? (Since the budget is tight, a used/second-hand machine is definitely an option)

The brand Laranzato in the U.S. (http://www.laranzato.com/about-us.html) appears to be related to the Milano machines you have been introducted to. It would appear Milano builds espresso machines for Laranzato.

I have no first hand experience with either brand.
