Re: Announcing new member of the Bezzera Club.
Gday Brett,
Welcome to CoffeeSnobs [smiley=thumbsup.gif].
Yes, you could be right there.... Bezzera stopped making the MiniBar in or around the year 2000, so until I actually remove the boiler from mine and can view the Spec Plate, all I can say is that it is more than six years old but very well looked after. Sparky is the one around here who seems to know a lot about the various Bezzera machines that were available, so he might be able to help out with an ID for yours.
Yep, I was thinking about using ceramic/mineral fibre material to insulate my boiler too. I dont think it will be very difficult to do as there is plenty of room around it, yours has probably even more room. I havent actually fired up my MiniBar as yet but I am really looking forward to that day after I finish restoring her... havent heard a bad word about a Bezzera machine since joining this forum, so thats saying something
. In fact, its usually the opposite, nothing but praise
. Cant wait to try it out but will have to force myself,
Cheers mate,
Mal.
