Saeco (and similar) espresso coffee machine thermostats
Apologies for any duplicates - posting problem.
Hi, all, I keep one of our three espresso coffee machines up and running (available that is, not actually brewing!) by cannibalizing the others and buying a few spares parts now and again. These machines are the semi-vintage, three button (or switch), high-pressure water-pump type, Saeco brand and similar. They are not the new, expensive microprocessor-controlled things you can't fix! I want to stock up on thermostats... there are two in the machine on the boiler. One is for the sub-boiling point water (to pump through the coffee) and the other for the subsequent steam generation (over 100 deg C.) They look like standard small industrial types worth a buck or two at most... so I don't want to buy them at the not-so-local Saeco service centre for an "elevated resale price". Questions: What are the two temperatures settings for these? (I'd guess at about 90 deg C and 105 deg C, respectively, based on the physics - but I'm really not sure.) Where might I get them in the Greater Toronto Area (Canada)? Or by mail order? Thanks for all replies. Merry Christmas! Cheers, Roger |

Don't you have a fully-working unit whose temperatures can checked with a
thermometer? |
