To have the ability to change the pressure of the boiler when I want. Just waiting for the parts then I will replace it by myself. Thanks for the offer.

I just did some mods to my Oscar including changing the Campini pressurestat to a Sirai. The deadband seems much tighter and the Oscar has never performed better. I have had three Campini pressurestats fail, all leaking but still functioning OK electrically. If the Sirai pressurestat will fit an espresso machine I can't see a reason to use anything else.Originally posted by lukeap69 View PostI see. I will try the Sirai pressurestat first and if doesn't work out to my liking, I will consider your suggestion.
Many thanks.

Noisy pump
Hi Antony,
I noticed your comment about the noisy pump. My Musica had a faulty pump which has been replaced under warranty in the past 6 months and the new one (maybe the old one too) sounds quite noisy. A friend of mine has the LUX model, purchased 6months to a year after mine and his pump is a lot quieter...Could there be something wrong with mine or is it just noisy? Is there something I can do to make it less noisy?
Thanks,
Darren.

We are a supplier of the Musica and can up date you on a couple of small changes with the Musica over the last four years
The teething problem you refer to may be the issue with the preostats in the early model. There was a batch of faulty preostats that found their way in some Musicas. These were not an item produced by Nuova Simonelli but rather an item purchased through another supplier. Incidentally this problem also caused issues for other machine manufacturers using the same brand preostat.
This issue has well and truly been resolved since then.
The only real change has been some modifications that now make the vibrating pump a bit quitter in operation
Other then that there are no changes we are aware of.
Please feel free to contact me if I can help any further
Regards
Antony

Hi Daren
with the updated Musicas the actual pumps have not changed but rather a bit more insulation around them to muffle some of the pump noise.
We do notice sometimes that some machines are a bit more noisy then others. It may be a slightly off panel alignment that vibrates so check everything over to see if it makes a difference
cheers
Antony

I just received my Musica, the pro-pack with the Sirai p-stat. This is my first machine, so I am not familiar with the different sounds. When I turn it on it takes 5min for the element light to go out accompanied by the sound of the water boiling. After this there is the sound of water dripping (large number of drops). After 5-10min this reduces and continues with the sound of 1 drop/ticking sound per 5seconds. Is this normal?
I also have a little bit of steam in the pressure gauge, it formed a single drop of water at the bottom. Has anybody else seen this and will it evaporate after a while?
