Well, an Arin on a well known auction website : I look without caring, as I already got one...
And then, I realise that on the side, it's not written "Arin" but "Super Moka". What a discovery !
First
time I heard of it ! And I'm not the only one...
So this evening I put
it in the "to follow" list, as she's been at 1€ for several days.
Next day, I look out of curiosity, and probably tired of not having any auction, the seller offers immediate purchase.
My hand reactivity being faster than my brain, I clicked on the "Buy" button...

Here is the machine, as discovered on the website.
|
 |
And when it arrived, I had to unpack it !

The small spillage tray sometimes missing is there. And the owner's tour can now begin.

Not that bad from the outside !

Her number and caracteristics... |
|
As she proudly displays the quality of material used. |

Next to her almost twin sister.

But it's a Super Moka we're talking about. |
|
|
The opening of the machine will keep some surprises from me.
|

|

|
|
That is not the worst

It has rusted on both sides, glups ! |
Her date.

All innocent like, that little metallic filter is really great. |

She's working, but I still gotta change
the seals. Unfortunately, I
broke a little plastic piece of the indicator during disassembly.
Well, I
can find that in stores. |
I finaly arrived at the end of cleaning, that was one of the dirtiest machines I've had ! |
But it finally shines. |
