👋 Introductions 👋They are quite popular here in Sweden as well. Some of them are collectibles worth quite a bit of money! (not mine unfortunately)

👋 Introductions 👋Thanks! Once I came across the E61 machines I realized that I just had to have one [emoji2]

👋 Introductions 👋Hello all, New member from Sweden here. I had my first encounter with the espresso world about 15 years ago. Back then I was a student on a tight budget, and my equipment was a Gaggia Baby Dose combined with a Minimoka M-203 grinder. Never really got the hang of it, and my student economy could...

🪛🔧 Technical | Faults | How-to's ❓ℹYes there was a male component. I suppose it might have been but I seriously doubt that anyone took this connector apart since the machine was manufactured. I guess I'll see what happens when the new pump gets installed :)

🪛🔧 Technical | Faults | How-to's ❓ℹHi all, When descaling my machine today I noticed a pool of water coming out from underneath. Upon disassembly and running the pump, I noticed that the leak came from the brass part at the outlet (I was quite surprised, I assumed it was at the coupling first). I removed the pump and had a...

🪛🔧 Technical | Faults | How-to's ❓ℹTo follow up on this story, I received and installed the new valves yesterday and now the steam works perfectly! The hot water is still not working properly though. It tends to work for a while, then it seems to clog. Then I can blow into the tap to clear it, it works for a while, then it...

🪛🔧 Technical | Faults | How-to's ❓ℹHi, I'm from Sweden and was able to source the parts from a local shop. I actually ended up buying two complete valve assemblies, as they had them in stock, but it was possible to order only the valve stems/o-rings if I wanted to (I did not want to wait two weeks...). The shop is...

🪛🔧 Technical | Faults | How-to's ❓ℹIt's sooo hard to see the condition of the valve seats, pretty far down that narrow tube. Since they managed to seal properly, I hope they are in good condition and will replace them if they start leaking once the new stems are installed.

🪛🔧 Technical | Faults | How-to's ❓ℹYeah, thanks. I think I will order new stems altogether if I can source them. The end teflon seal looks a bit weird with that big bump in it, if I look at a spare part it looks like it should be flat (steam valve stem). The part where the end seal sit on one of the valve stems also has small...

🪛🔧 Technical | Faults | How-to's ❓ℹI made some more checks today to find any possible blockage in the pipework, and took apart all the plumbing from steam wand to boiler but found nothing blocking the path. I assembled everything again and now I could force water out of the water tap by blowing into the steam wand, so it seems...

🪛🔧 Technical | Faults | How-to's ❓ℹAdding it to the gallery first worked. Sorry about the size!

🪛🔧 Technical | Faults | How-to's ❓ℹI understand. I have an older Giotto model where the knobs for the valves are not connected externally to the steam/water taps, but they come out from two different holes in the front panel. I did remove both valves and tested them by blowing air through them, and they worked fine to turn...

🪛🔧 Technical | Faults | How-to's ❓ℹYes correct, I do get hot water from the group, about 90 degrees, so it seems alright. I will have another go at trying to locate the blockage in the pipework. By the "nut from the tap", do you mean the filter-like thing that is attached to the end of the tap? I did remove that and check for...

🪛🔧 Technical | Faults | How-to's ❓ℹHi all, New member from Sweden here, just starting out my espresso journey. I could probably have had a better start, as I invested in a used ECM Giotto anno 2000 that unfortunately does not work properly. My issue is that I am not getting anything from the steam wand or hot water tap. The...
