The more I search the more I get confused but I am now at the stage where I am down to two or three machines for my home needs. The basic criteria is traditional look, volumetric, rotary pump, and something which I will be proud of when in my new home kitchen (later).
The shortlist includes the Epoca Volumetric 1 Group. This machine needs plumbing in but I am currently a renter and that aint easy with taps in the wall. So, I have a plan which involves a custom made tank feeding the machine until it gets to its home properly plumbed in.
Can anyone tell me if they have experience and/or advice for using this interim setup? Also, any experiences on the Epoca Volumetric? Other machines I have missed??? (I cant do exposed group heads due to the theme etc of my home kitchen where everything is sleek and modern)
I am hardly a pro-barista but I grew up with family friends who had a popular coffee roasting business so I have adored coffee since I was a boy. I have self taught myself where friends tell me my coffee is magnificent so time to buy a new machine to replace my old one which lasted well over ten years - so an Epoca is still good value on a yearly basis...
