Long Steam Arm

Post by txrpls »

Has anyone ordered and installed the longer steam arm on their Mini II. I just received mine the other day and it appears that it is only 1/2" longer than the standard, hardly worth the effort to install.

I've installed it.

As you say, it's not much longer...just long enough to make it hard to stow away over the drip tray grill. :lol:

I find the long (S5) wand is a good if you are using a 20 oz pitcher. I mostly use a 12oz pitcher for single Lattes, so I went back to the stock short arm for the better stowing.

I tried the no-burn wand too. Hated it. Too long, bad angle, bad tip (although the new 4 hole no-burn tip is better....if not a bit too slow).

Thanks, I think I'll get an RMA and swap it out for a bottomless PF since I mainly do single lattes and cappas

My bottomless PF get much more use than the longer steam arm.
