This does depend of which brand of espresso machine you have. Some espresso machine brands don’t use a heating element thermostat at all. Most thermostats are interchangeable with each other, but always make sure that you use a single phase or a 3 phase version, check out the thermostats we have on our website
Well first of all the heating element flange, seen those are in most cases not interchangeable with each other. seen a Cimbali heating element won’t fit a Nuova Simonelli heating element due to the flange model. A other important feature is the length of the heating element. When it is too long, it won’t fit. When the element is too short you will get uneven heat distribution in the boiler.
Well descaling a heating element is quite simple. A heating element can be placed inside a water tight tube. But the flange can not be submerged, the chance that water gets inside the heating element is possible. Which shorts out the element and makes it unuasable.
To descale a heating element you can use Puly caff Calcinet descaler, this need to be dissolved into hot water. First remove the loose lime scale. If it doesn’t remove all the limescale, repeat the procedure.
Well that answer is pretty simple, no it isn’t. The original valve works as following, when you turn the shaft inwards the valve pin will push a gasket holder. The steam can go out, close it again and no steam can go out. In the case of the modern E61 valves is that behind the gasket holder is a small stainless steel ball with a spring.
From the beginning of the Faema E61 brewing group are basically no differences between the parts installed inside the brewing group. Parts such as the valve gaskets, springs, valve assemblies and portafilters have all remained the same. The biggest change is the small cleaning hole on the front of the brewing group. With the earliest models this hole didn´t exist.
There are 5 types of boiler used on the Faema E61 espresso machine. The most well known is the double flanged model. You have on one side the heating element flange and on the other side the water level flange, both are out of production. These are held in place with aluminium boiler rings. For the single groups you have a boiler with a flange on one side.
The next model is a stainless steel boiler, with one flange. This type of boiler is less common then the copper boiler above. There is also a later model stainless steel, which doesn’t have a removable flange. Both these boilers have corrosion issues, this has to do because of the stainless steel.
The latest model is also a copper boiler, this boiler has a single heat exchanger(HX) in the middle. Most modern espresso machines have for each individual brewing group a individual HX.
Yes it is, but this depends on various factors. The first thing is experience, seen this is a manual operated espresso machine it requires a lot more attention from the barista then a solenoid operated model. There you need to stop the brewing process manually. If you don’t have the experience you probably can’t hold up with the tempo which is required at such a bar. Then I would advice to go for the Faema E61 Jubilee, this is the solenoid operated version of the Faema E61 Legend espresso machine.
A heating element only comes with a gasket when this is specified. If this is not specified a heating element gasket isn’t supplied with the element.
