DavecUK Super difficult to find in the UK

Oh no. Mine is no good. Can’t be used. 😨

Another one here

Edit

No! BSPT to BSPP

DavecUK BSP tapered fittings,

That’s BSPT

Then, BSPT for male and BSPP for female. Hence, BSPT male to BSPP female elbow should work, no?

LMSC none of those are BPS = BSPT, and the first one you linked to is BSPP male and BSPT female.

Both sides need to be BSPP. I did check my spares box this evening, but unfortunately I don’t have any of those elbows at all. My recommendation would be, Make up a small list of spare parts you would like (seals, gaskets, temp sensors, etc.. contact Maria at ACS tomorrow and get her to put a kit together.

If it’s small and light Paolos nephew is coming to stay with me for a while, he arrives 21 Feb, he might be able to bring them with him and I can post them to you.

In the interim, you can use the machine as long as you don’t turn on the steam!.

There is this:

or this, which doesn’t look tapered in the photo, so you could ask them.

P.S. I am just guessing they are BSPP fittings on the machine and not metric. I’m also assuming they are not tapered? I just confirmed with Italy this evening, they are BSPP.

    This link is missing Dave!

    Thank you so much for your thoughtful gesture Dave. Let me compile a list after talking to her.

    Good polish and clean after the man handling she’s had 😂

    Decent De1pro v1.45 - Niche Duo - Niche Zero - Decent is the best machine ever made -

      LMSC No it’s quarter inch and they don’t measure as ¼ inch, that’s just what they are called….It’s mad, but ¼ inch doesn’t refer to the diameter.

        DavecUK There are a few things I will never understand!

        What are your recommendations to get a list of spares?

        Getting them thru’ Paolo’s niece is a lovely option. I am happy to do a short drive to collect from you or you could drop in one of the days, when we are mutually free, to pull a few shots from Evo using your roasted beans. A lovely chance to see you making some heavenly cups on Evo that too beans from your roaster. 😁

          Cuprajake Good polish

          Did you really chrome polish? Which one please? Thx

          I just use a glaze from work no cut.

          Meguiers mirror glaze

            You guys work really well together.
            DavecUK Without giving away any secrets, is there more room in the Vostok than the EVO?
            I know it is basically the same internals but are they more spread out considering the larger platform?

              Forgot a little mod I did a while ago,

              Sound deadening the panels made a massive difference

              Decent De1pro v1.45 - Niche Duo - Niche Zero - Decent is the best machine ever made -

                So following on from this mod, I priced up powder coat black panels but landed there £250 ish

                So took a risk, spoke to my tech rep and went a head

                Sanded with 180grit then red scotchbrite

                Cleaned and masked then put into the booth

                Product of choice syrox/Dupont and upol raptor, used 10% gloss addictive and 10% thinners

                Wash primer flashed for 15mins

                Then the 2 coats of raptor with a 10min flash in between

                Not going to bake these, flashed at 30 for ten then can cure over weekend, gloss levels will drop a tad as it cures

                Then I can build it up Monday

                Cuprajake now that’s interesting! how about heat retention? does it make a difference?
                should do a video compare with a generic youtube title to get more hits…‘noisy espresso machine how to fix’
