I am not sure if this has already been posted, but the Expobar Brewtus has been listed on WLL. E-61, double boiler, PID. I have seen mention of this machine before, but it is now out! Someone is gonna have to get this thing and let us know all about it!

Edit: I have misspelled the machines name!!! Brewtus!

Wow! This looks like they put everything that a coffeegeek would want in one machine - EXCEPT that it is pretty pricey. There are a lot of fine machines from which to choose at $1500!

Yes, we know all about the crotchety old Italian barkeep....
Sweet machine. It seems there is going to be some heavy competition between vendors and their somewhat exclusive manufacturer: The vendor for "pushing" design changes to the manufacturers, and the manufacturers for addressing them. If Chris and Andreja answer, maybe we'll see a price drop to push buyers in their direction? :-)

It seems they have not yet gotten specs for the boiler sizes and what not up on the site. I am curious, because it is an internal resevoir machine, and it all seems to be squeezed into the Exp. Lever housing. How big could these boilers be? It's too early to say, but my engineering background has taught me that there are always tradeoffs!
