Realised that there may not be a lot of info of this machine around, so heres a mini review of this 1.5L HX machine, for some info:

Good things:
- Bezzeras are well known for being among the best in external finish, and this machine is no exclusion. It looks really, really good in the flesh.
- Electrically heated grouphead - it only takes 10 minutes from turning the machine on to bring this thing up to temperature. Has come in very useful for me on many occasions when unexpected guests turn up wanting a caffeine dose.
- Steam power - this little fella blasts a huge amount of steam - 10s and my silky smooth milk is ready.
- Small footprint - as you can see from the picture, it fits into very tight spaces.
- Big drip tray & water tank - The drip tray is big for a machine this size, and the water tank is 3L as well, so you wont find yourself moving between the machine & sink too much.

Bad things:
- The group head has a shower head that is quite low, so that means no overdosing, otherwise your group handle wont seal on the gasket. I dont think this is a big problem, as Ive weighted the normal dose it takes to be 16-17 grams. For those insisting on overdosing, I have heard that you can buy a thinner dispersion plate from Barazi? Dont quote me on that tho, I have not checked that out yet.
- The electrically heated grouphead can run very hot if left there for a long time (1 hour or so). But if that happens, give it a slightly longer cooling flush (50-60ml?), and youre good to go.

If you are in Melbourne and only if you are serious about buying this machine, feel free to PM me if you wish to come and see it.

Gavin.

Hi CSers!

Im itching for an upgrade, so Im letting go of my beloved BZ07P.  Bought from Talk Coffee and it is only 1 year old.  Usage averages 2 coffees/day.  Backflushed weekly and well taken care of.

What it comes with, shown in the picture:
- Single & double group handles
- Blind
- Group head cleaning brush
- As a bonus, a Bogav Original Tamper.

What it does not come with, though shown in the picture:
- My Macap M5
- My wireless modem

There are the two usual wear and tear marks
1) Minor scratches on cup tray
2) Paint peel of the button - the button is plastic, so no corrosion risks there, purely cosmetic.

Price is $1700, Melbourne pickup only.
