Italian term

coppette

Italian to English Tech/Engineering Mechanics / Mech Engineering
From the same description of a coffee vending machine:

"smontare le coppette con i tubi d’erogazione e i beccucci" e
"guarnizione tra l’arrivo dell’acqua e l’anello della coppetta"

I don't have any more context for "coppette" here.

Thanks for your input!

Thanks again for your help! In the end I asked my client, who explained that the "coppette" are the mixing bowls. Hope this will help someone else in the future!

small cups

Coppetta here means small paper cups, normally used in vending machines which comes out first before the coffee is poured when you pay for the coffee.
Note from asker:
I don't think so in this case because they call the paper cups "bicchieri di carta" in the same text. That was my original thought also

filters

sottocoppa is filter holder so I presume that this could be the filter in the shape of a tub/cup, like on most houshold coffeed machines. Take a look at this site

Note from asker:
Good point, sounds possible. I'll have to think about this one some more also, thanks for your help for now!
