I recently had a KitchenAid Espresso coffee machine in for repair, most parts for these are available from Gaggia as this is who manufactured the device however some parts are peculiar to the K.A. model and are now obsolete. Such is the case with the steam boiler fl**ge, which had corroded and become porous on this particular machine. The customer did not want to scrap the machine so I prepared a quote to make a new boiler fl**ge which they accepted. Here is the new part made and ready to install. It's not a cheap repair by any means but when compared to the cost of a new equivalent machine at around £1500 - £1700, it made sense to do the repair.
