I bought this Italian commercial espresso machine to flip but…

So I bought this Italian Commercial Espresso machine locally from a building site thinking I had gotten the deal of the century! Well, it turns out I was wrong. Join me on this adventure as I decode the mysterious inner working of these incredible Italian Commercial Espresso machines. Sure I've worked on Gaggias and Rancilios, even Brevilles. Sure I've built microcontrollers that are just as cool as the one in this machine, but when you're dealing with something new, something someone else designed and built, you're bound to run into issues. And there were plenty of issues. Make sure to stick around as I taste my first ever shot on a commercial machine, and hang on for the show stopper as I realize what a colossal mistake I've made buying and trying to fix this machine. OK, cool stuff I used in this video. Affiliate links: I love this carbon fiber e61 portafilter from Normcore. That's one in the video.
