Wega Popular Questions, Answers, Tips & Manuals

The most common fix to heating pads is cleaning out the control unit on the cord. Unplug the heating pad, then use a screwdriver to open up the control unit. If parts are loose, tighten them. Otherwise, you may need to invest in a new heating pad.

hi probably manual water feed to boiler in case of electric valve failure upload a picture . it sure has to be connected to the boiler regards Guy

Probably the boiler temperature or current fuse that blew. They are inline with the supply wires and usually clamped to the boiler. Easy and cheap to replace.

Could be a couple of different things. I'd first check the water level probe to make sure it isn't dirty or damaged. After that it can be the inlet selenoid valve thats damaged or has limescale in it. If that selenoid is broken it will not allow water into the boiler. Either way if the pump is running it means the machine is sending a signal calling for water so it has to be something associate with the water level probe, etc.

filter plugged or pressure weak.

if under waranty replace or buy nescassfee

This issue can happen if the site inlet water pressure falls below 1 bar. The boiler fills but as you draw drinks it won't refill.Do you service the machine ever and replace the water filter? Limescale build up may be another reason you are experiencing problems.Trouble shooting guide here Espresso Maintenance

Wega is good, generally, but avoid this Mininova. Tell me if you are looking to a home machine, or for commercial use. Either way, it proved unsuitable. We gave many Mininovas to scrap dealers, having made the mistake of damaging our reputation by promoting them.

wega epu. Commercial machine. I'd check espressoparts.com. Any faema, wega, nouva simonelli wand will screw into the wega valve. They also have precision wands from japan. Sproline series i believe it is called. I have no association with the site but i do know that any of the parts Listed will work.

Steam out of the top is a bad safety valve. Steam out of wands when they're off is bad gaskets in the valves which usually means they need to be rebuilt. Steam out of groups is a water blockage and/or pressure stat is going bad and causing the machine to over heat. Can be any one of the following. Need more information to answer properly.

Bad pressurestat or bad heating element. PS feeds power to heating element, heating the machine til its up to pressure, which then turns the pressure stat off. If either of the two pieces are bad neither will work properly. Could also be the machine is overfilled which causes the machine to take longer to heat up.

i believe, if i am understanding this, as i guess here, when you are frothing the milk, it seems to also fill up faster, like water is not steaming as much as it is filling. As you know, steam is hot water turned into steam, now what is happening the steam is half steam and half water. If this is the symptoms along with air bubble, then it points to O RING replacement, direct water is getting through before it has time to steam, on a commercial type machine, you are better off to have a mobile espresso guy come out in your area, replace the o ring in the wand, and also make sure no other damage has been cause from back water pressure on electronics. I hope this helps, this is a do it yourself job, but would not recommend if you really don't know about guts of the machine and electronics. The computer is the major expense of the machine. Thanks Mike

It sounds like the water line is blocked. There is an obstruction in the line somewhere. This must have happened at the factory. You could disassemble the machine, but would void the warranty. And I believe that you will need the warranty in the future for other problems. I know that it is not the news that you wanted to hear. But if you want to disassemble the machine let me know and I will try to explain.

Because the Gevalia coffee makers are often offered as a free or reduced price premium for purchasing Gevalia coffees they are not well made and can sometimes have a difficult to repair molding error in the reservoir. I have had very good luck with the Hamilton Beach Brew Station. It is affordable, well made, easy to keep clean and nearly foolproof.

Either the shower screen is blocked or the metering jet on the top of the group is blocked.

Have you tried tightening the connection?

Since there is no water at the solenoid, then the blockage must be at the metering jet, which sits under the nut on top of the group, turn of water supply and be careful when removing nut do not damaged o-ring if it is not a teflon O-ring, you might have a leak. Clean out jet and filter then reassemble.

No you cannot damage a solenoid in 10 seconds, if so then the advice that I give to all my customers who never have a problem is wrong. Have him check the pump pressure that might be set over 9 bars and or the expansion valve is not working. Here is a copy of the backwash page that I give to my customers:

Adjust grinder to finer, if there are numbers on the adjustment knob, it is still possible to go past 0.

Check the nut on the top of the grouphead, make sure water is off and machine has cooled down, carefully remove nut, try not to damage gasket on the bottom of nut, check the screen and jet.
