Steam wand pressure (and new tips) for the La Marzocco 2 group machine..
Hey folks.. we use the 2 group La Marzocco, and we feel like the steam wand pressure is way too high.. has anyone else had this experience? we're going to get our technician to turn it down, but we're also thinking about getting new tips for the wands. we've looked, but can't find any interchangable tips made by La Marzocco.. we'd like something with 3 holes instead of 4, and maybe smaller holes as well. has anyone else had this problem/found a solution? any thoughts on where to buy steam wand tips for the La Marzocco? your help is greatly appreciated!!

www.espressoparts.com sells a modified marzocco tip that sounds like what you're looking for. I acquired a 3 hole marzocco tip (don't remember where from) but didn't like it because the holes themselves were too big. This http://www.espressoparts.com/MZ_L178 , or this http://www.espressoparts.com/F_134_LM , although the latter has been on backorder for a while.

What kind of La Marzocco do you have? The newer ones are super easy to adjust the steam wand pressure on...you don't even need a technician. What does the gauge say the pressure is at?

We've got a Linea 2 group semi-automatic. It's about 6 months old, so fairly new. The pressure is currently at about 3/4 full (does that make sense?).. do you know how we can adjust it ourselves?
