La Pavoni

Specs clearly published Made in Italy lapavoni.com ↗

La Pavoni's lever machines are old-school metal: on the Europiccola the boiler and brewing group are chrome-plated brass, so brew water contacts only chromed brass on its way through the piston group into a metal filter holder. The only plastic is the Bakelite lever knob and base feet, which never touch water.

How clear are their specs?

La Pavoni's spec tables list the boiler and brewing unit as chromed brass, making the water-contact materials clear.
