@agent_flounder Yes, big kudos to DeLonghi as well. They could just have glued everything together into one big epoxy block, but no, they chose to make it actually repairable (and even let you buy replacement parts). 👌

@workerONE Officially, I’m a computer scientist 😉 But over the years, I’ve fiddled around with enough electronics and mechanical engineering as well that I’m overall pretty good at fixing stuff 🤷
@gronjo45 I’d say roughly an hour to take the cover off and find the broken valve, one week waiting for the replacement to ship, and half an hour to put it back in 😉
@ada I’ve been a cow’s milk junkie for decades, but Oatly Original is a sufficient replacement IMHO.
@ItsGhost @avidamoeba I sense an extremely embarrassing ER visit in someone’s near future 😬
