    Picked this up with a bunch of antique coffee grinders/mills. Obviously German from a company still in existence. Even with the text that is left on the piece, I can't figure it out. AJ6A6761.jpg AJ6A6763.jpg

    Heck, I'd call the company and ask if I email a photo, could they try to help me identify a piece I have. Most people are really helpful if you approach them genuinely interested and not just asking for an "appraisal." Just a thought.

    Photos look great. Can we see the innards and other side of that beast?

    Do those two sections with the handles separate, and do they come out of the unit?

    What is inside the spouted "containers"? what size is it ,looks more like a small cream separator.

    It looks like some kind of liquid would come out of the spouts?

    It is missing a milk reserve tank on the top.The spinning cone in the center cause centrifugal force and causes the milk and cream to separate .
