In this video we look into the machines that were a large stature, pressurised brewing device, built for the bar. We only look at machines that we have physical proof were actually built rather than just patents, and we begin with one of the most interesting of them all, build by Angelo Moriondo, of Turnin. Whose design was forgotten until the painstaking work of Australian author and espresso machine collector, Ian Bersten discovered his patent in the Italian Archives, almost 100 years after the machine was made.
This video takes you up to the start of the 60s. Look out for part 2 to learn about the legendary E61 and beyond. If you really want to dig deep into archives to find out what designs were significant before Moriondos - take a look at this superb white paper by Sebastien DelPrat.
