Hi everyone, starting an overhaul of an ECM Raffaello A1 that a friend picked up very cheap. Needs a thorough descale, regular maintenance wear items, and a group handle. The baskets and blind basket came with the machine, but the handle and tamper is missing. Not having much luck finding ECM parts in Canada, don't really want to import due to delays and brokerage fees, but wondering what other brand portafilters would fit this group? Any idea of the gasket dimensions, or the proper tamper diameter so I can kit this out properly?
I put it through its paces and all the settings seem to be where they should be. A descaling, backflush, shower screen, gaskets and o-rings should set it right if I can find a group handle for it! Astra M group in Toronto has lots of choices but nothing specifically for ECM. What do you all think?
Best Regards
