It is a very weird design choice. I might get lucky though and find something in those old-school hardware stores. I've verified the dimensions. It's a non-tapered thin rubber foot measuring 20mm in outer diameter and 18mm in height, with one end nearly capped, leaving a 7mm opening. Despite scouring the internet, the closest match I found was

I have been using the Quickmill Achilles 0996 for over 10 years now, and am looking for a new lever machine. I was hoping that some of the current Vecis users can help me out with some use case and workflow issues. 90% of the time I pull three shots (split with my wife) and steam milk for

I find the Micra (and several other machines) to be superior in the cup over the DE1 for traditional espresso. I had the Micra side-by-side with my DE1 with the new group parts.
