I've purchased, on the spur of the moment, an Isomac Napolissima, for 40 euro including S&H. Seems to be almost brand new. As soon as i receive it, i'll post pics. A search here returned basically nothing of real interest, but I've figured out that the machine is the same as the isomac viper... Not that that helped a lot either. But, it made me realize that this machine uses a somewhat standardized pattern and parts, sharing a design with lots other machines.
I know very little about pump espresso machines, my area is levers, and I'd like to ask you guys.
Did I throw away 40 euro?
If not, what upgrade path do I have (pid, adding functions, OPV, manometers etc),
And of course...
Does it makes good espresso?
Thank you!
