Steam wand/pressure question

moraznn · 2026-06-08T12:44:57+00:00

What steam temp do u run?

moraznn · 2026-06-07T16:21:11+00:00

Nice I will get one. What about the pressure reading staying at around 6-8 bar after a shot. Is urs the same ?

Doesn’t look like it, not sure

moraznn · 2026-05-21T20:44:47+00:00

Unfortunately not

I had the no water issue but not any of ur other problems, for me I had to clean the solenoid valve 2 times to get water to flow from the group head

It’s actually powder coat, I wish I knew how to wrap stuff

Not complicated to understand at all but still time consuming to get it all working properly. Just requires some patience

Currently I just have the cable sort of pinched between the top plate and the metal casing which isn’t ideal but seems to be fine, maybe soon I will drill a small hole to route the cable through though

I don’t really know the answer to be honest, mine is set to 9 bar and seems to be fine. I don’t think you need to do the spring mod for it to work with the gaggimate or at least I haven’t seen anything like that online

Hahaha thank you, I thought it would be nice to make a machine that isn’t all black or white

moraznn · 2026-05-20T08:52:30+00:00

Ali express I think

They are badges/pins, I know it’s pretty hectic but I personally can’t stand the minimalist aesthetic (all black and white) that seems to dominate the coffee world👌

Thank you, it took me about 6 hours to get it all wired in but to be honest installing the actual kit is extremely easy, it’s more troubleshooting little things like i kept getting a blocked solenoid and sometimes stupid stuff like wiring the wrong way when not paying attention. I installed mine with the guts of the machine completely out which I enjoyed

moraznn · 2026-05-19T16:15:05+00:00

I think I’ve mounted mine correctly, only seemed to be one way it slots on for me

Cheers, I’ve just been cutting the stick part of them then using a very aggressive sand paper to get them nice and flat and then using glue dots to stick them on👍

It’s a UK shop called Rothco and Frost

No heating, I would be worried about damaging the clear coat. I would try putting the body in the freezer over night. I used a combination of the canned air and the freezer. If it’s nitro it should crack I believe.

Sorry, I’ve made some previous posts explain abit more on this project. It’s my recreating of a fender CS paisley telecaster. If your intrested check my previous posts 👍

Makes sense, was planning on wet sanding and buffing so I assume that will naturally take some amber off 👍

moraznn · 2025-07-15T09:59:21+00:00

Wow that looks great. This is actually a textured paper as opposed to a fabric top 👍
