Products: Astoria introduces "Sibilla" - Automatic espresso machines. Available in one, two and three groups. "Sibilla," in English Sibyl, in classical mythology was a prophetess, the most famous was the Cumaean Sibyl, described by Vergil in the Aeneid. In today's specialty coffee industry, "Sibilla" is the most radical innovation in the industrial design of an espresso coffee machine. And like the prophetess of ancient times can spell the fortune of your business. Mysterious, beautiful, fascinating, innovative. We predict there will be a "Sibilla" in your future.
