  • Faema Baby Gasket Seal

    I have just picked up a Faema Baby in nice condition but the seal is pretty hard. So I am chasing a replacement gasket seal.

    This seems to be unobtanium and I have found the page http://www.francescoceccarelli.eu/Fa...a/baby_eng.htm which talks about a U-cup seal and cutting it down.

    Does anyone know of parts available in Australia (or overseas) either a u-cup seal which can be adapted or some producing a Faema Baby seal?

    i bought the seal from Francesco, it wasn't too hard to cut it down and fit it, but its not a perfect solution. Sometimes when in use it fails to make a seal with the PF. Francesco includes an o-ring which is packed under the lip of the U cup to help flair the seal before it is pressurised, this helps but you still get a few miss fires. I have read on other websites about people trying to get a group buy together to get seals custom manufactured in silicon but as far as i know no one has actually come through.
