By Andrew J. Valencia on February 24, 2010
I owned one of these for three years, and agree with the only other reviewer that this item is only for those who take joy in fiddling with the many variables of grind, pull speed, preheating, and coffee bean choice. If you don't want to put in all the extra effort to coax performance from a beautiful piece of Italian engineering, save your money and buy something automated.

That said, I thought a potential buyer might want to read about some of these idiosyncracies. First, no matter what you do, the first shot you pull will taste bad. Preheat, pull hot water for the first shot--nothing will change the fact that the first shot doesn't taste good. I resigned myself to wasting that first shot.

Second, if you want to pull shots soon after each other, you'll find out that this unit does not have a pressure release mechanism. So when you unseat the filter holder soon after pulling the shot, there's still pressure against the grounds, which will now *poof* blow back outward onto your fingers and the machine. You'll get used to knowing when it's been "long enough", and in a pinch you can *carefully* ease the holder out, slowly letting the pressure to escape.

With a pump espresso maker, you can pull "lungo" or "ristretto" shots, which have (respectively) larger or smaller shot sizes. Since the amount of grounds stays the same, this means more watery or stronger. But with this unit you have to live with the pull size implicit in the amount of water moved by that piston for a pull. They give you two holders, which gives you two sizes. The smaller one is the only one I ever used, which was a ristretto--a good choice, if you have to take a single choice!

I have owned this machine (8-cup, chrome) for over ten years and everyday when I make my morning cappuccino I love it more. You can spend more for a machine that measures the coffee, tamps it, pulls the water through and steams the milk for you, but you can tip the kids behind the counter at Starbucks and they'll do the same thing. Making espresso should be a little art and a little science and this machine an impeccable balance of the two. If you aren't the kind of person who takes joy in mixing the perfect martini, making a risotto that whispers with flavor, or whipping a meringue to impossibly tall peaks, this probably isn't the machine for you.

The La Pavoni is for the person who will find tremendous joy in going to the lengths required to make a perfect cappuccino by hand everyday. (And don't bother using anything less than Illy Cafe coffee in it.)

La Pavoni PPG-16 Professional 16-Cup Espresso Machine, Brass
I purchased the 16 cups La Pavoni professional (brass model) and have been extremely happy with it's quality in pulling espresso shots, foaming milk, and overall quality in craftsmanship. It is definitely a purchase for the next 20+ years.

HOWEVER, when I first received it I went through a lot of frustration (probably 50+ cups wasted) to finally understand what it took to make perfection in a cup.

Before considering this machine, understand that you will require a grinder that has the ability to adjust the fineness/coarseness of coffee bean grinds. Purchasing coffee grinds from cafes will not work. I figured they would have commercial grade grinders so what's the difference? Well, the difference is that this La Pavoni needs an EXACT grind level, and I mean exact! If the grinds are too coarse, water will pass through the grinds quickly and you will not achieve the sought after crema (plus the espresso will taste like burnt toast). If the grinds are too 'fine', you will not be able to pull the La Pavoni lever down to release the pressure build up (i.e. the coffee will not pour/drip) and you'll be forced to remove the filter prematurely....and poof! scalding grinds exploding everywhere. I chose to pair my La Pavoni machine with a Mazzer Mini grinder ($750) which is also a well made machine made in italy. There might be a cheaper solution, but after so much frustration I experienced with pre-ground coffee from cafes I would have done almost anything to get it right.

The only problem I had was the wood on the boiler cap was cracking. This is not a common problem that they had. I sent the damaged cap back and they replaced it with a new one. The coffee grind is the trick to making this espresso machine work properly.

Took some practice but my espresso shots are so much more flavourful with the La Pavoni than with my pump machine. Don't scrimp on the grinder I have a Mazzer Super Jolly and am dosing 12 to 14 grams in the double porta filter basket. Very fine grind with a light tamp seems to be working. Raise the lever to just below the valve opening before locking the porta filter. Go 3/4 way down and back up for a 2 ounce shot. Slowly releasing the porta filter to refill keeps you from getting sprayed with coffee grounds. It is worth the extra money for the professional with the gauge.
