Hi,

You have to take a screwdriver and try to bend up the platic, be careful so you not break it.

SOURCE: First Cup Is Cold From La Pavoni Europiccola

If the machine works great after the first cup then it is possible that the heat for your first espresso went to heating the portafilter or the cup used to brew into, try warming the portafilter first by running some hot water through it first.

Hi there, i am a domestic espresso machine engineer based in Glasgow and i specialise in La Pavoni machines. If you could get in touch with me at my e-mail address ([email protected]) i will be able to help you but i will require some info from you about what happened. It sounds like a pressure problem or the thermostat has gone allowing the water to over boil and build up too much pressure. Pressurestat is most probable i reckon. If you give me an idea of what happened i will be able to help you. I work alongside the UK's lead supplier of La Pavoni spairs so have all bits in stock. E-mail me or give me a buzz on 0141 425 1083 and i can sort you out.

SOURCE: There is water leakage on my La Pavoni Europiccola machine

Hi there,
I am a domestic coffee machine engineer based in Glasgow, Scotland and i service, repair and refurbish these machines on a daily basis. You will probably find that the gaskets which are holding the sightglass in place are completely solid and resemble a hard plastic like gasket. There will definately be gaskets there as if not the sightglass would rattle about and the water would pour straight out. It depends on which sight glass nuts you have but if they are the clear plastic nuts you will find either black, white or clear gaskets underneath and if the nuts are metal then you should see brass washers first and then the gaskets underneath the washers. These are easily replaced and can be purchased from our website www.theespressoshop.co.uk I hope this helps and if you have any further questions or queries then please do not hesitate to get in touch at [email protected]

Hi,

This problem could occur due to to two problems.

1)Blockages in the valves.There are many valves present that will cause this issue.
When it is blocked due to dust particles it will block the flow.Check in the the diagram of how
to separate the La Pavoni.Apply some air pressure at the valve knob endings and the flow turnings.

2)Piston may to block the flow.So take it clean and place it properly.

Here is the parts diagram which will help you take apart the La Pavoni.
