PAVONI

PAVONI coffee machine spare parts ensure the longevity of this iconic Italian espresso equipment manufacturer’s classic and professional machines. La Pavoni lever espresso machines are not only functional devices but also collector’s items and part of café ambiance — proper maintenance with the right spare parts allows these machines to serve for decades.

La Pavoni lever espresso technology

La Pavoni lever espresso machines operate on the principle of manual pressure creation, which differs from modern pump machines. The lever mechanism — the barista manually pulls the lever down, raising the piston and creating pressure for water to pass through the coffee portion. Piston gaskets — piston gaskets are the most critical replaceable part in a lever machine; they ensure water tightness under the piston. Pressure control — the professional barista controls extraction pressure with the lever’s force; a unique espresso preparation technique. Water boiler — the La Pavoni thermostat regulates water temperature in the boiler; a worn thermostat results in overheated or insufficiently heated water. Also explore Coffee Machine Parts.

Specifics of lever machine maintenance

Maintenance of La Pavoni lever espresso machines differs from standard pump machine maintenance. Piston cleaning — the lever mechanism’s piston must be cleaned regularly of coffee oil deposits; recommended once a year. Piston gasket replacement — more complex than group gasket replacement in a pump machine; an experienced technician or following detailed instructions is advised. Boiler descaling — the La Pavoni open boiler requires regular descaling; hard water accelerates limescale buildup. Thermostat calibration — after thermostat replacement, check temperature with a thermometer. Also explore ISOMAC spare parts.
