Re: DOUWE EGBERTS COFFEE SYSTEMS?????? Help please.
Its very hard to tell from a photo like that one. The difference between an 10A and 15A is the width of the earth pin. People have been known to file down the earth pin on a 15A plug to make it run out of a standard 10A powerpoint, which as Brett (motocoffee) pointed out is very bad ju-ju.Originally posted by 16323B3B38380216322E30325D0 link=1244714687/12#12 date=1244791961Does that plug in the photo look like a 10 amp
if so it is not compliant

What do you want to use this for? Office, cafe? I saw it on ebay and it is already pricey at the current bid IMHO.

FWIW, one of the least impressive espresso machines I have used. You could do a whole lot better...

Doubt parts would be an issue but I wouldnt call it an espresso machine. More of a hot coffee flavored dispenser :-?.

You mean this sort of equipment?

or this http://www.douweegbertscoffeesystems.com/hidden_eg/OutOfHome/OurProducts/Coffee/PiazzaDoroEspresso/Machines/
Is this for your home or office? It looks like a vending solution where you are committed to buy their coffee and enter into a contract.
