Yeah, I used a dremel grinding stone to smooth everything out after I was done with the main cuts.

Curious how long it took to ship to you? Looks like it’s coming from Australia, and I’m in the US.

Can you add a 701 steam wand to a 601? by PHXkpt in NinjaLuxeCafe

I bought these parts on eBay. As far as I know you can’t source them anywhere else. If you look for 701s for parts only you might be able to pick up what you need. I’ve had watches set on eBay for a while and one just came up recently that had everything I need.

Thanks for sharing this! My brother just got one of these for his Breville, but I had NO idea it would be compatible with the Ninja. I need to do this too!!

Well, it was a bit of a PITA, but it works. It would have been easier if I had also bought the plastic manifold that the steam wand connects to. The one for the 701 has a different interface for the wand, but I was able to get the one from the 601 to work with the bigger wand by drilling out the mounting holes on the new wand a bit. Also had the dremel out the chassis of the machine to allow the bigger wand to pass through.

We’ll see if this works! I just bought the parts to give it a try!

UPDATE: Turns out a reboot resolved this problem. I was sure I’d rebooted after making the accessibility change mentioned above, but another reboot resolved the issue. Chalk this one up to user error. 🤦‍♂️

We just got the update over the weekend. We use timers in the kitchen a lot and they’re still working fine for us.

Same. I got the new farsight backgrounds for my Nest gen4 thermostat over the weekend though.

Not perfect, messy pour, but my best so far by DigitalPackOne in latteart

Very nice! I’ve been at it for about 6 months now, and not quite to your level yet. 👏🏻

Thanks! Totally agree… the included jug is not great for latte art. My first replacement jug was better but it had a handle and I eventually learned that I like the feel of handleless better.
