For Sale. Price Negotiable. This is probably the most under-utilised Mahlkonig EK43 in Australia. It's averaged about 500g/month and unsurprisingly the burrs look brand new.

We need a smaller bag grinder, so here’s your opportunity for a bargain brew bar grinder. This grinder is genuinely as new.

RRP is a hefty $6.6k inc now for one of these, so here’s your opportunity to have that WBC winning grinder at under half price. DM if you'd like it and then come and collect it!

Wise, wise words from 👏👏👏. In an internet full of hype and sales pitches, this is refreshing.

Proprietary bits which waste service time and money. Case in point:

Most manufacturers will place a pressurestat (the bit with the wires on it to the left) on a simple riser and then power it. It does the job perfectly. Quickmill… “Hold my beer”…🙄🤦‍♂️🤷‍♂️

For Sale. Our light use Mahlkonig EK43 grinder. Espresso, filter cold drip etc. The TC EK 43 has outgrown available space and has to go.

Our EK is the most underutilised piece of equipment we have as our clients are well trained and have their own grinders. It would literally average 1kg per month- or less.

We need the space back, so it will be replaced by a small bag grinder which will also do pretty much nothing. A recent pulldown has the burrs unmarked and as new. I honestly could not detect any wear whatsoever. This grinder is genuinely as new.

RRP is a hefty $6.6k inc now for one of these, so here’s your opportunity to have that WBC winning grinder at under half price.

What’s the saying? “Brothers from a different” ….or was it sisters? Whatever it is, these two from ECM (Milan- as it was in those days) are special. The Giotto Premium we all know well. I love them!

On the right though is a super rare ECM Veneziano VS1 which is in for service. Australian examples can be counted on a hand and worldwide production has them in the tens. If machines are sexed, we recognise the Veneziano by its distinctive hips, as compared to the shoulders of the Giotto. For me, the Veneziano is every bit as iconic as the legendary Faema e-61.

I owned a VS1 once. It replaced a Giotto Premium. Why did I ever sell it?? 🤦‍♂️
