[Atlanta area] Crossland CC1 espresso machines, - v1, v1.5

Can't ship, but open to pickup or handoff within a 1-2 hour radius of Atlanta. Listing here in case anyone is looking for a solid PID-based machine as their primary, or one to tinker with.

I've got two of these, one is a v1, the other is a v1.5 but, the latter is visqueen'd in the shop to prevent the vibe pump from losing prime. They're identical in function and nearly in appearance. v2 moves to the integrated drain.

I picked up the v1.5 "for parts", only to find it was in excceptional shape and only needed a thermal fuse (10min job) and a steamblock gasket. I sourced gaskets and a new CEME vibe pump from the OE manufacturer overseas, so it's got the most important internals refreshed. The steam tip on the v1.5 is the only part of the machine that looks fairly used, but I don't steam milk so IDGAF, myself. I do keep my machines religiously cleaned with Dezcal and Cafiza. I've been through both machines inside and out, they're working perfectly, no leaks, good pressure, and should remain that way if properly cared for.

If you know of espresso machines, you've probably heard of the CC1 and potentially Bill Crossland, who has worked for huge names in the industry designing machines. These deserve the hype IMHO. Simple, functional, effective, very programmable, and don't break the bank.

Both will come with:

• Portafilter handle
• Nice double-shot portafilter basket
• Blind basket for flushing
• Tamper (Either manual Rattleware, or a spring-loaded Normcore, 1st come gets their pick)

These machines normally go for ~$350 used on fleaBay (proof of recent sales). I'll take $250 from any active Tundras.com member that's been here more than 90 days. If I need to drive more than 60 minutes one way to drop it off, I'll ask you kindly kick me $25 extra for gas.

I think it's a smoking deal, but I'm biased. If you don't have a decent espresso grinder, don't expect any magic, though.

Pics of the v1, happy to offer pics of the v1.5 if needed/requested. I've taken in a superauto recently and would prefer these don't sit around gathering dust.

PS - I'll also throw in a new group head gasket for the machine. I've replaced the gasket on both machines since 2021, so new owner shouldn't need one for a loooong time to come. But I'll throw it in at no charge anyway.

 

Bump. Open to offers. This is a killer PID-based machine for the money.

Prefer not to ship. The machines have a penchant for creasing at this spot when carriers throw the box across the warehouse, even when packed with the rear of the machine facing down.
