Faema Company
Faema is a well-known company with a long history of producing iconic espresso machines. However, the company hasn’t always had an easy journey, which is also why VBM (Vibiemme) was founded as a result. Today, Faema is part of the Gruppo Cimbali spa, and many of the newer espresso machine parts are interchangeable with other brands in the Gruppo Cimbali family.
Spare Parts for Faema Espresso Machines
One of the great things about Faema espresso machine parts is that they are often universal. Whether you have a vintage E61 espresso machine or a modern Faema E61 Legend, many of the parts are interchangeable between these models. This demonstrates the durability and sustainability of Faema’s designs. If you’re looking for parts for antique lever-operated espresso machines, such as the Faema Faemina, we recommend visiting our website dedicated to lever machines at brooks-espressomachines.
Faema Portafilters
The portafilter size used with the Faema E61 brewing group has become the industry standard. This makes sense, given that the E61 is one of the most widely used brewing groups. However, there are variations in the thickness of the portafilter ears depending on the specific model.
Faema E61 Brewing Group
The Faema E61 brewing group, found in both the original Faema E61 and the modern Faema E61 Legend, uses a variety of springs, valves, and gaskets that are largely standardized. This means that many components are interchangeable with other brands that use the E61 brewing group style.
Faema Models
Over time, Faema has produced a wide range of espresso machine models, from early lever-operated machines like the Faema Marte and Faema Velox to modern machines such as the Faema Teorema and the Faema Emblema.
Faema E61
The Faema E61 is perhaps the most iconic and revolutionary espresso machine ever made. It was the first machine to use a pump-driven system, setting the standard for modern espresso machines. Many features of the E61, such as the brewing group, portafilter, and steam valves, are still used in today’s machines.
Faema E61 Legend
The Faema E61 Legend is a modern reintroduction of the original Faema E61. While much of the original design remains, technical improvements such as autofill and safety features have been added. A more modern version, the Faema E61 Jubilee, also includes volumetric control.
Faema E71
The Faema E71 is part of the E61 series but incorporates more advanced technology. Technically, it is closer to the Cimbali M100, as it has a multi-boiler system, allowing each brewing group to be temperature-controlled.
Keeping Your Faema Espresso Machine Clean
Maintaining the cleanliness of your Faema espresso machine is essential. Since coffee is a food product, hygiene is important, and a dirty machine can give a poor impression to customers. Cleaning involves two main tasks: internal and external maintenance.
Internal Cleaning of the Brewing Group
You can backflush all solenoid and manual brewing groups (except for lever-operated ones) using Puly Caff and a blind filter. This should be done daily. Be careful not to overfill the powder, as it can stick to the solenoid valve's internal components.
External Cleaning of Your Faema Espresso Machine
Cleaning the outer surface of your Faema espresso machine is simple. Use Puly Bar Igienic and a Brooks Microfibre cloth to keep the machine’s exterior looking spotless. The drain tray can be cleaned easily under running water.
