What is the steam pipe joint assembly
This is a movable joint part that connects the steam pipe to the coffee machine body and allows it to rotate into the required position when frothing milk. The assembly may also include a probe that measures the milk temperature during frothing.
Typical signs of wear
A worn or damaged joint shows up as a loose pipe, movement that is too stiff or too loose, leakage of steam or water at the joint, or inaccurate milk temperature readings if a probe is fitted. Hissing or unusual noise during steam transfer may also occur.
Why replace this part in time
A leaking or damaged joint reduces control over milk frothing, causes inconsistent milk foam quality, and increases the risk of steam or hot water leaks, which can also pose a safety hazard. Timely replacement prevents more extensive interventions in the steam system.
Selection advice
- Check exact compatibility with your machine in the product table, as assemblies differ in side orientation and the presence of a probe.
- When ordering, pay attention to whether your original part included a probe, and on which side it was located.
