This thermostat has an aluminium base, which has a faster response time than the traditional brass, so is more accurate
Thermostats have a life span before they start to lose accuracy.
How to install a contact thermostat in a coffee machine
Turn off the coffee machine and plug it out from the socket.
Open the lid to get access to the boiler.
Remove the wires from the thermostat
Unscrew the old thermostat, anticlockwise from the boiler.
Clean the area from any old thermal paste.
Add the thermal paste to the base of the thermostat - (not the threads ).💡 Hand tighten only - ⚠️Never use a spanner as the soft brass threaded shaft will snap off.
Screw in the new thermostat and insert back the wires.
You are good to go!
