Hi all

I'm selling my Bezzera BZ-99 because I've moved on to a different setup. The machine is 10+ years old, but everyone here will tell you the BZ-99 is built like a tank and -- with a bit of care -- can last almost forever.

The machine comes with the following:

• single spout group handle
• single, double and triple baskets
• blind basket for backflushing
• 3 different steaming tips (default, single hole and twin hole)
• stainless steel tamper
• 600ml stainless steel jug (not shown in pics)

Notes:

• Mechanically everything works well. Pulls consistently great shots when paired with a decent grinder (on that front, I'm also selling a Rancilio Rocky doserless if you need one).
• I did a thorough descale a month or two ago by pulling the boiler depth probes so the machine would completely fill the boiler with descale solution. Many repetitions, many flushes so I'm confident it's very clean.
• Backflushed with group head cleaner quite regularly so it's nice and clean at that end too. Also recently gave the the milk lines a thorough clean.
• I have just finished calibrating the pressurestat to bring the boiler temp up a bit and improve steam power. It's now working better than it ever did during my years of usage.

Most second-hand BZ-99S floating around will set you back $700+. I'm asking $450.
