Sweet Maria’s page on the La Pavoni. While they no longer sell the machines, they still keep this page up for reference.
A new website by La Pavoni Spa. It has a bit about the company’s history and a catalogue of their current offerings.
Dave Bayer provides a good primer on home espresso in general. Be warned, this is site of another obsessed La Pavonite(tm).

Doesn’t anyone drink cappucino? I’ve gotten crema down but am having trouble with the steamed milk/foam thing. Any pointers?
Thanks everyone.
Hi Jane,
What problems are you having? Are you talking about the fancy attachment that draws milk up by itself, or just the wand?
