Fan cycles on and off continuously
The machine works fine, then the fan cycles on then off, on and off for long periods of time. Doesn’t seem to be a pattern to it.

Re: Steam boiler loud pop sounds
No it doesn’t. I am not sure what the pressure relief valve looks like. Is there a diagram that identifies major parts! If so, where can I get it?

C95BCF89-EEBF-4BCA-B6F6-37548FDD5EE4.jpeg My drip tray fills completely in one day. I called Chris Coffee and I was told to remove the metal bezel and on the right, I can see where the dripping is occurring (see attached picture) and tighten that nut (indicated with orange arrow). I rotated it cloc...

Steam boiler loud pop sounds
When the machine is turned on from cold, I can hear the water heating in the boiler. As the steam is developing, at one point, I get a very loud pow sound like a release of pressure. That was not happening every time the machine was starting up. Yesterday, it was like it was continuously doing it. I...

removing steam wand
I want to change it. Can someone explain, in detail, how to do this? Do I unscrew the big nut at the top of the wand? Do I need to remove the panels?

Re: Water line diameter for plumb-in
My machine was working fine until I moved to a new location. In the new place, the line in is 1/8 copper line about 12 feet long (previous owners had this hooked up to their fridge for ice making) which connects to 1/4 flex pipe. When I try a shot, the pressure gauge is almost at 0 and the pump does...

machine choking
Last week, I was getting very nice espresso, great color, lots of crema, using my own beans (malabar Gold and SO Harrar). I bought some beans from a local roaster. He told me they were not more than 5 days old. Now, using the same technique, I get one of two things, watery coffee with no crema or th...

cabinet damage
I have my machine under my kitchen cabinets (made of MDF). The machine generates enough heat to keep the cabinets at a constant warm temperature, even keeping the contents of the cabinet above, very warm. Should I add a metal plate under the cabinet or is everything ok?
