La Pavoni Europiccola manual lever espresso machine with Auber PID temperature controller RTD sensor






This video shows the initial test of my La Pavoni Europiccola Pre-Millenum espresso machine, after attaching an Auber Instruments PID temperature controller to it. The PID controller is part # SYL-1512A and the RTD sensor part # PT100M4. It also uses a solid state relay (SSR) to switch the heating element of the boiler on and off. The controller and temperature sensor came from auberins.com Further information on this modification is detailed at the following link: www.home-barista.com If anyone has any questions, please feel free to post them in the comments section below.
