La Sorrentina Atomic Coffee Machine

Mid–twentieth–century Milan designer Giordano Robbiati achieved a spiritual union between form and function when he devised a new type of coffee maker in the late 1940’s.

Loved around the world, Robbiati’s patented coffee machine is a classic design of the 'Atomic Age'(1945–1960). Known simply as the ‘Atomic’ it truly embodies the explosive energy and creativity of the post-war era of 20th Century Italian coffee machine design.

It would be impossible to improve on the organic lines and sleek modernism of Robbiati’s extraordinary machine or to find a more versatile stovetop coffee maker. The quality and simplicity of the design ensures trouble free operation for a life–time.

The all new “La Sorrentina” Atomic Coffee Machine is the result of close collaboration between Ikon Exports in Australia and the Bellman Company in Taiwan. Our goal was to produce a new machine worthy of the vintage Atomic. A love of fine coffee and reverence for the beauty and functionality of the original design united us in this endeavour. After much refinement the end result is a perfect reproduction of the patented Atomic coffee machine. Our new coffee machines are manufactured to the same specifications and dimensions as early Italian made Atomic's and most parts are interchangeable.

In keeping with the original design only the best materials are used to make “La Sorrentina” coffee machines. Where possible modern materials have been employed to further improve the functionality and durability of the coffee maker. Each machine is then hand assembled and tested to ensure perfection. “La Sorrentina” replacement parts are compatible with many vintage Atomic coffee machines and are readily available online direct from sorrentinacoffee

Each “La Sorrentina” machine is a truly wonderful coffee maker that will last a life–time with a minimum of care. You can easily produce from 2 to 6 espresso sized ‘shots’ and quickly froth and heat milk for delicious cappuccinos, etc .
