Hi,

I have a Saeco Aroma (new Classico) and I was wondering if I can purchase a new steam wand or tip? It came with the Pannarello tip but it doesn't work too well. Will the Starbucks Barista swivel arm fit? Thanks.

Maybe.... looking at the available diagrams at here indicates some differences. It would likely take a call to a parts supplier to know for sure. The Estro Profi/Barista steam wand is sold in a kit with a few other fittings.

Your other options are to remove the outer sleeve portion of the Pannarello, remove the Pannerello attachment entirely (will leave a short wand) or defeat the air intake by moving the o-ring to block the intake port.
