La Pavoni Story
La Pavoni was founded in Milan in 1905
thanks to Desiderio Pavoni in a little workshop at Via Parini. His
first invention was patented by Luigi Bezzera, on 1st
September 1902, duly registered at the Milan State office
on 19th September 1903, and gave life to the first espresso
coffee machine for bar called "Ideale".
It was a vertical machine, with a boiler kept at a constant pressure
by a gas-ring which it rested on, or by means of electricity, with
side brewing groups (from 1 to 4) supported by inside hooks and had
a filter for ground coffee.
By opening a knob, at a pressure of 1,5 bar, water first and then
steam passed through the ground coffee in the filter, enabling the
brewing of the espresso, which - in one minute - was ready in the
cup; the machine was also fitted with some knobs to get hot water or
steam to prepare hot drinks.
Being the first machine of it's kind to be marketed,
this model spread the fashion of drinking Italian style "espresso"
coffee at the bar, in Europe, first, and then around the whole
world. ...read
