Hi Reiss,
Just wanted to drop you a note that I have sold my L1 to friend in anticipation of new L-R!
I also recently got 1952 Faema Urania, beautiful machine and espresso is fantastic. Very similar though in flavor profile to L1, but I prefer lever machines anyways…
Thank you for sending people my way when they ask about grinders, much appreciated. I do the same whenever someone asks about machines, I point them toward Londinium since they can spend a lot more for inferior espresso. As far as espresso quality, maintenance and longevity Londinium is hard to beat.
Hope you are well.
My Best,
Denis
