I have read through all the threads related to the steam boiler on a GS3 MP reading over 3bar and the guidance that the vacuum breaker valve was stuck closed.

My GS3 has the conical valve modification though I don't think that is pertinent to the problem I am experiencing. It...

Hi Everyone,

OK, here's my issue: I am in the process of modifying a Nespresso machine for use while camping (off the grid). As is, it draws down my batteries way too much. My plan is/was to crack the machine open, disconnect the heater (the main current draw), and re-route...

Good day everyone. I have a Pasquini Livia 90 semi automatic that is getting a bit older and starting to show its age. With winter coming and my wife and I wanting to drink hot drinks again I figure I should resolve some issues. For whatever reason it just started running on its...

Hi,

I hope someone can help me pinpoint the issue I'm having. I believe one of the solenoids has gone bad/clogged, but I don't know which one.

I have the Breville Oracle v1. I know the pump(s) and both boilers work as I can do a shot, as well as activate manual stem wand....

First time poster. Im hoping I can get some advice on a problem Im having with an older ECM Giotto Machine at our office.

The issue is nearly identical to what was covered in this old thread: Problem with ECM Giotto pressurestat

We have now had the pressurestat replaced 3...

Folks -
While trying to reduce pump noise in my new Andreja Premium, a component in-line with the pump wiring (photo) shorted to the case (interestingly fusing the pump switch at the group closed). I've measured its resistance - it now looks like a DC-short. Does anyone know...

The steam boiler in one of my backup machines is in need of a descale. The anti-vac valve is off, and I can see how scaly it looks through it. My plan was to put in a teaspoon of citric acid in each day until it looks cleanish.

It's a ECM Mechanika, i.e. stainless steel boiler...

I've had the Breville Oracle since 2016 and am probably on my 4th one now - machine likes to die every 2 years on the dot it seems. Breville has been exceptionally good in supporting it and from a manufacturer standing behind their product perspective - I have no complaints. Of...

I noticed some corrosion and a slight pressure leak at the water level sensor probe. I went to remove the fitting to install a fresh Teflon insert I had, one tiny turn of the wrench and off she went. My first thought was well that's odd, it was only hand tight but then I...

I bought a used GS3 a few months ago and have been enjoying it. I immediately had to replace the portafilter gasket because it was hard and cracked. I used the Cafelet Silicone gasket and its been great. I figured I'd need to replace some more things due to the neglect of that...
