weil espresso machine - 2005/08/17 17:14
hi there coffee geeks.
here's the old line: i purchased an espresso machine from the sally ann and it works soooo well. it's a modern looking number of all (heavy) stainless steel, has a small water reservoir column in the back with the brew head sticking out as well as a steam wand that does not swivel.
it's not old because the on/off switch is fairly modern looking.
the name "weil" is embossed into the stainless steel base. and that's it.
i can't find ANYTHING online about WEIL with a connection to coffee and am so curious as to whether anyone else knows anything about it.
i'm in canada, if that helps at all.
cheers from victoria,
seawaterwoman

Please do not call us geeks! That title is taken. 
I have heard that name and it is a re-packaging of...
multi-chef I think. Do you have a picture?
A picture tells a thousand words... or about 600 words on the Web.

hi colin,
yup, i do have a photo... but upon closer inspection, it does say multichef on the embossed W logo in the steel.
how do i send a photos?
and, if it is what you think it is (you're good!), is it a piece of junk or a sweet little find?
cheers,
seawaterwoman

The Multi-chef (Weil) is not really an espresso maker at all - it is a steam powered coffee maker. It makes coffee as strong as most stove-tops.
But it is not an espresso machine.
Needs a pump.
They are getting long in the tooth now and I question their value and useable coffee makers.

There are two types of espresso machines - steam driven and pump driven. The Multichef (Weil) is steam driven. I will gladly buy any Weil machine in good working order.
