I was originally planning on sticking a Procon Micro Vane pump into my MaraX, but it was just barely too large for the frame, so that idea got canned.

I still have the pump, though, and with a Silvia Pro on its way to me, so that got me thinking: Can I make it work in the...

Hello everybody, I'm Henry, Italy based. A newbie on this forum and in coffee world.
A few days ago, for a bunch of bucks, I saved from a dusty and old warehouse a Rancilio Epoca S1,
After a mild clean up first issue that I founded is that boiler pressure gauge floating around...

This happened two weeks ago. Just got around to posting now since I was away...

FLASH BANG!
After pulling an awesome shot this morning, I pressed the brew switch again to flush out the grouphead. FLASH BANG! Lost power and got a whiff of something burning. I disconnected the...

Hi everyone. I have been trying to find some help on this specific issue but couldn't really. Maybe I have no idea what the part number is.

I recently just placed an order for a Rocket Appartamento espresso machine which was delivered yesterday. All was in perfect condition and the first time set up was carried out successfully.

Upon not deciding to use the machine and delayed using it properly for the first time...

Has anyone customized or replaced the case of a Rocket Appartamento? I bought my machine roughly 7-8 years ago now. I have a desire to get something new and shiney... but it still works well, I'm happy with the shots I'm pulling from it, and most importantly, I don't really have...

I'm repairing an Isomac Tea Cool for a friend, about 10-11 years old (the machine that is).
It was never cleaned, so everything was clogged of course.
The machine is dismanteled, descaled several times, backflushed and manually cleaned.
I also dismanteled the E61 grouphead and...

My Oracle Touch machine has started to leak from the hot water spout when express is brewed.

I have changed the hot water solenoid as there was now hot water coming at all. Now the hot water is leaking when espresso is being brewed.

When brewing americano water comes twice....
