Subject: Leaking steam wand


Since it looks like I'm not going to get the Silvia (see other thread) I
need to repair my morphy richards machine (one of these:
http://tinyurl.com/ycklq8 )- the steam wand is leaking from where the
bolt attaches it to the body of the machine. Have I lost a washer or
blown a gasket or something simple like that?

Probably - best case, its loosened up from heat cylces. If the bold is
a housing containing the washer or gasket, may also be easy. Clean
everything up well with lemon or vinegar before reassembly.
