I sent an e-mail to Stefano, but he doesn't deal with Quickmill machines so he wasn't sure. I guess I might have to take the valve apart and see if I can compare it to the pictures above.

Hm, I don't know if the ball pivot Anita uses a compression valve like mine, or a non-compression valve like the Andreja Premium. It could be using a similar valve as mine in a different configuration. You might try looking through the Isomac parts diagrams on Stefano's site to see if you can find a similar valve configuration. Other than that, yep, it's going to have to come apart.
