machines will be shipping on monday 12 august 2013
we didn’t get any machines out on friday as for the first time we are now shipping the machine in 2 boxes and there is a bit involved to execute this change
it will make the boxes easier for the courier to handle and also to eliminate any possibility for the top half of the group inflicting damage on the machine, which has occurred on occasions when we shipped everything in one box
we haven’t got them in yet but we have placed an order for North American plugs so all 110V machines ordered from today onwards will ship with a plug so the moment you open the box you can plug your machine in and pull your first espresso
from now on the signal lights will change from neon to LED. instead of two signal lights there will be three; white (power on), blue (inlet solenoid open), and red (immersion element on)
we are no longer offering the luxe which sold well (1 in 6 machines sold has been a luxe) but with the arrival of the L2 and shortly the L3 we need to rationalise our product offering
the price of the plumbed in and tank machines are now the same
while the price has risen to GBP1625 plus VAT all machines will now ship with solid wenge handles as standard
this means the L1, L2, and L3 are all the same with stainless steel bodies and solid wenge handles; a clean, timeless design that is quintessentially English
