ACS Vesuvius Evo Leva

LMSC

Glad it is sorted. I think you should still email ACS with the video and the troubleshoot. I would keep the contents simple and let the video do the talking.

By the way, I was half asleep and being a bit nervous about it forgot to mention I found the machine with AL.11 error (so it needed water), but this happened to me several times before and I just fill the deposit and the machine worked well always.

So, I will try to reproduce the issue in case something (Temperature probe?) got broken and need fix.

Could an air bubble in the boiler cause this? If the sensor is not submerged.

pinky-and-me Usually it’s if the steam boiler has been used, the machine shut down…water shrinks as it cools, probe exposed, autofill runs in the morning but tank not quite full enough and low water alarm triggered.

Well same issue today, so whatever it was, it was not fixed.

Error AL.01

I’ve checked cables but they are ok, so most probably the temp probe is broken.

Just sent an email to ACS and @Paolo_Cortese

Hi coud i ask you to send an email to me or to my company instead to write here otherwise i make a double work also because some nick name are hard to match with the name in the emails thanks.

about the sensor the code are 2 type AL01 means that it’s broken AL02 disconnected.

ciao

Just saw on their instagram that ACS plans to produce a 1gr Vostok. Looks really nice, although it comes out of nowhere and might lead to frustrations for recent evo buyers!?

LMSC

Photos of any one has access to it please !

This is what I found on their instagram page

Just to be clear, this would be a machine which has to be plumbed in (no cold water tank), has very large boilers compared to the Evo Leva and is also quite deep… so it seems it’s quite a different animal compared to the Evo Leva, although it shares some of its key components with it.

LMSC

Eiffel Correct. IMO, it will not only be an overkill at home but will also be extremely expensive. It is most probably aimed at smaller coffee shops and restaurants.

Also the Vostok doesn’t seem to have a manometer.

Although, last picture from them of the EVO Leva shows one unit without it… isn’t it weird?

DavecUK

Msmk0 I’m pretty sure it does have a Manometer, or will, the ones I used/saw all had manometers. As @Eiffel said, it’s a different animal. The Evo was really intended to be very at home, in the home. I have the Nurri lever and it’s big…I’m still waiting for the drip tray to arrive, but here it is without the drip tray…remembering it’s pre-production and wasn’t cleaned before I got it…I have cleaned the bits I drink from, but still need to clean the reas…when the drip tray arrives…note this is a very early prototype. My counter is 600 deep at the narrowest portion!

LMSC

DavecUK Stunning to say the least! Any thoughts, especially the shots ?

This doesn’t have a PID at the group, does it?

DavecUK

LMSC yes it does, you can just see it, it’s a small display. Shows temps and you can adjust everything, just like the small Gicar display on a Minima. Shots are good of course as it’s the standard LSM group. The 2 pressure guages on the front panel show steam pressure and group pressure (same as an EVO).

DavecUK

No sooner than I post the above, the drip tray arrives, and I’ve cleaned it up a bit.

LMSC

Hardly looks like a pre-production, considering the look and finish. Hope she stays with you for a very long time, if not ever. 😊

The stainless steel look very thick.

It’s not really that thick, about 1.5mm , the side plates are purely decorative, they don’t rest on the counter at all.

It will only be with me long enough to produce and engineering report….then it will go back…

Hello,

i fund this basket, is a new version?

28×55 basket looks more ideal for around 17gr use

LMSC

darkstefano Thx for the link. I didn’t come across this. Most of us have B662TH26M and B662TH32M.
