I suspect it is a slow machine if you are using 110v and not 220v?

I have a “mysterious” mokka pot from the USSR with the same style knob on top and similar finish. Also similar bad coffee! I found it on eBay and have never seen another one.

Should start a business and start making them again, that would be cool. That’s if it works…

[...] On this photo I tried to recreate the atmosphere of the regular soviet era home. Almost everyone had this sugar can. Dotted cups, round table and the chair was also quite common. The most interesting and rare thing on the picture is the vintage coffee machine (made in 1970). In fact this particular machine is so rare that this is the one and only example I’ve ever seen of this kind. You can find out more about this vintage coffee machine here. [...]

Congrats on the find.
This is actually really cool. Makes me want to search my local attics, or better yet goodwill stores.

My only thought that jumps out is the “Vintage” part. It was made in 1970. Does that mean I’m vintage? Maybe so.

what news of the coffee machine? does it work?

it sure has a nifty design. hope someone picks it up and markets it. being soviet, it sure has no issue with copyrights and patents!

i would guess that the machine would work like a cheap electric steam pressure espresso (the type that gives off 1-2 bars of pressure). sure no space for a motor in there for a pump mechanism, let alone a water reservoir
