  1. That is a Salton EX3

    Some good info on it from last time one was posted

    I couldn’t find any manual but salton’s still around, I’d call them about the cord https://www.salton.com/. I called Stihl about an old chainsaw of my dad’s from the 70s one time and they were super interested in it and helpful.

  2. ah. the Vesuviano. I had a stovetop one and gifted it to my tiny tim in secret santa last year. Makes a cool decoration and pretty decent coffee if you have lots of time to experiment and lots of coffee to experiment with.

  3. A yes, the electric mokkapot!
    Its a vesuviano, I have an identical one (also missing the 70’s style powercord) I soldered a 220V cable to it to try it out, its like a mix between a pourover machine and a mokkapot (with more risk of burning yourself)

    I have since removed the powercord and it now lives on display in a cupboard..
