Well here it is my Bezzera BZ-40..... Not bad for $160.

And here whats under the hood.




After ripping the cover off and some basic safety checks, is the earth connected etc.
All was well so plugged her in to see what happens.
Boiler started to heat. good...
Pressure building...watching the gauge...passes 1 and then 1.5 heading toward 2....getting nerves.....switched off
what pressure would you expect the boiler to get to?
Bleed out some hot water/steam from the hot water tap etc
Also noticed the vibe pump wasnt working, power is getting to the pump but its not working or making any noises.
But a meter across the pump....bugger it open circuit reading megohms 
Oh well time to track down a replacement vibe pump.

. What other bits and pieces came with the BZ-40? I can just imagine it taking pride of place on a benchtop in the kitchen or entertaining area. What a beauty....
