Hi All,
Here are a few images of my "Peppina Termomatica", bought two weeks ago on the bay.
I thought it might be of interest since not that many of these can be seen over internet (I couldn't find a single picture, in fact).
I imagine this must be one of the last peppina variations produced by FE-AR before they stopped their business.
Interestingly - and besides the fact it makes the best espresso ever - it exhibits a few particular features (some of them visible on the photos):
- straight lever
- 1000 W
- "on/off" switch (left)
- "cup/steam" switch (right)
- thermostat
- redesigned group (the "roof" of the group is conical, and there is no more group washer but a small rubber bead hold by a spring, the spacers also have disappeared)
- the kettle looks more like "a bulb" and has a rubber collar (decorative)
- removable drip box
Best regards,
