Common Questions
Does replacing the steam valve fix a dripping or leaking steam wand?
In many cases, yes. A worn steam valve is one of the most common causes of a dripping or leaking steam wand, particularly during brewing or after use. We recommend descaling the machine before installing a new valve, as limescale can damage the new valve.
How do I know if the steam valve is faulty?
Common signs include water leaking from the steam valve shaft (often due to a worn internal O-ring), steam not shutting off fully, or continuous dripping during brewing or after use. A small amount of dripping is normal.
