NS Appia Volumetric keypad issues
Started by Latté 911 in Equipment & Tech. Last reply by Latté 911 on Thursday. 9 Replies 1 Like
Hi all,I'm wondering if you can help me. I rebuilt a Nuova Simonelli Appia with volumetric dosing and I am now at the point where I'm putting it through its paces. I noticed the power button is stuck in the "on" position, a few of the LEDs are not illuminating including the one over the power button, and when I first started the machine the pump motor would continue to run after the autofill probe had shut off the autofill solenoid. I had to unplug the machine a few times to make this symptom…Continue

Espresso inconsistencies
Started by Benjamin Ripley in Espresso. Last reply by Brady on Tuesday. 4 Replies 0 Likes
Hi Barista exchange,I am brewing an espresso blend equal parts brazil, El Salvador, and Papua New Guinea. When it is pulling right it has bright, citrus tones throughout with a deep spicy body that finishes with a coca and lingers. Usually I find that taste from 18.5g in, 32-36g out with an extraction time of around 25 seconds. Obviously this changes daily, and with every bag, and every shot; as is the natural product of working with organic plant matter. Anyway, the problem I am having is…Continue

halogen heater replacement
Started by steve korwin in Equipment & Tech. Last reply by steve korwin on Monday. 22 Replies 0 Likes
I was wondering if anyone knows a source for a halogen bulb for a Digirosto Imex pro1500plus. I bought one new about 2 years ago, the halogen bulb went bad about 6 months ago. I bought a replacement from them in Korea which lasted 4 months. I tried to order another one and they said they no longer had them in stock and wouldn't have them available anymore. They wanted me to buy another one for $6500.00. I use this unit at home for personal use only, so it has seen light duty since new.…Continue

I am selling a lightly used Quest M3 coffee roaster. The unit has roasted no more than 10 lbs of coffee. It is like new and clean.It's a very nice electric machine, I have moved and can no longer use it, unfortunately :(I am asking $900.00 and will include shipping, which I believe is fair since this unit has such limited use and is in like new condition. I will entertain offers, but let's keep it real.Cheers,JohnContinue

Latté 911 replied to Latté 911's discussion NS Appia Volumetric keypad issues"Hi Brady,
I was just off the phone with the Simonelli dealer *closest* to the Toronto area. I won't give their name, but you could find out easily enough.
Simonelli has the price of the main control card published on nuovadistribution at…"
Brady replied to Latté 911's discussion NS Appia Volumetric keypad issues"Huh. I don't do anything special regarding ESD, just touch something metal before messing with the board. ESD isn't gonna weld a relay, but you already knew that.
I'm not talented enough to even consider repairing a board, and always…"
Latté 911 replied to Latté 911's discussion NS Appia Volumetric keypad issues"Thanks guys,
I've got the local dealer checking price and availability for me right now. I already know the list price, and as a tech I should be getting a bit of a break on it, so I'm not as concerned as I was last night. It does seem…"
Mike Sabol replied to Latté 911's discussion NS Appia Volumetric keypad issues"Sorry if my post was a bit hyperbolic but I tend to be a safety weenie...
It does sound like some voltage got into the CPU, perhaps some static, and blew out some transistors on an IC or something. As for the lights on the keypad you should…"
Mike McGinness replied to Christina Zamagias's discussion looking for a coffee roasting training apprenticeship opportunity"Are you roasting coffee at home now? If yes great, it would show me you had a true desire to learn as well as initiative. If not I'd not consider you a candidate."
Brady replied to Latté 911's discussion NS Appia Volumetric keypad issues"*cue funeral music*
Sounds like the main board to me. Disconnected the ribbon cable from the board side, right?
I've always suspected stuck relays result from a power surge or heat issue, but really don't know. I once had to replace a…"
Latté 911 replied to Latté 911's discussion NS Appia Volumetric keypad issues"Hi Brady,
Thanks for your interest. The machine powers up with keypad removed. It's odd to me that a couple of LEDs are blown on the keypad as well, because I would think that they would all be powered from one source but I suppose they could…"
