    Yes- We're the importer. You're welcome to call for a chat season.

    Edit- There is one person in Australia who owns both (technically). He's due to collect his Pompeii in October.

I took some time to 'investigate' and machine should be reliable and simple. SIMPLE .. servicable by people in the industry... The more I want (manual, spring lever...)the pricier it gets and my head hurts. At the end I figured I'll need years to understand it all, but one machine stood out (actually two)- Izzo Alex Duetto and Pompeii (I believe Pompeii is more commercial and more expensive).

      Thanks Chris and Atillio, that was a good start..

      Mate, I'd give Chris and/or Atillio a call/email. And before doing so maybe have a think about precisely how the machine fits into your business model (do you expect it to pay for itself eventually? are your 30 cups/day spread out or in concentrated bursts like openings? What is the likelihood that your 30 cups/day might increase? etc).
      Cheers
      BOSW.

        Hi everyone and thanks,
        good point Barry..it'll be spread during the day..my partner has experience with making good coffees and we have a business for 15 years in architectural presentation, so it's not like coffees are our priority. We wanted to open a gallery for our business but to offer a good coffee, too. And I love a good cup,too. I'll try to contact Atillio or Chris one of these days. My partner is saying we won't tolerate those who can't appreciate a good coffee. hehe..anyhow if someone has experience with those two Izzo machines I'd love to hear from them.
        Cheers
        Season

          Hi again
          Yes, Bosko is also right..maybe good robust second hand machine then something electronic and new, that won't last long! Still waiting if any of you has something to say about machines you're using regarding durability..especially if it's Izzo.
          Thanks
