I have a a Bezzera espresso machine, a forerunner to the Pavoni. (Ithink that Pavonie bought Bezzera?) I am in need of a new rubber base pad (molded with a lip which captures the lower edge of the base and supports the machine) - keeps moisture from corroding the switch and contacts, etc. The original one was an aqua color, though any color (I think they were later made in black for the Pavoni's) will do. Any leads (URL, phone, or address) as to where I might find this would be gratefully appreciated. I am located in NYC. I have rebuilt this (replaced seals, and made a tool to remove the basket to get at the piston, if others seek advice. thanks
