If you need parts for this machine, check out this website:
www.ersatzteil...
This website (above) sells just about everything you would possibly need to repair your Lumero.
Here is another website that may help, though seems more expensive:
fixpart.de/de/...
update 27.09.2023: the small connector that often breaks on these machines that attaches to the top of the Thermoblock is not available on either of the above mentioned websites anymore.
I plan on making these with food grade, temperature resistant teflon - let me know if interested or if you find a place where one can buy them. I'll write once prototypes have been tested and available for purchase.
Need more assistance? Just send me a comment and I will try my best to help...it is such a great machine in minimalist design and espresso quality; it is worth fixing!
GOOD NEWS!!! The connector that always seems to break which attaches to the Thermoblock is now available at www.ersatzteile-24.com
16:25 is the part that I'm referring to. Buy a couple while they still have them in stock!
On the website, search: Q436968
What is the name of that part ?

thanks for video, it helps me a lot. only one things: don't put any screw at the hole with rubber cap. i think it is some pressure release hole. my unit don't have there any screw.
Thanks...you might be right. Good tip!
Thank you very much
Helpfull and great video
Water was dripping even if i dont know what was wrong now it is working again. 😊
Im glad to hear that!
Mine was bought new and it's also open for the electronic part
Helped me a lot!! Thank you
Hey Nathan, thanks for the video. It helps a lot the fix the machine. 😎👌🏼
I‘m from germany and found the connector in one of our german online-shops. 👍🏼
But now there are one question open. Does the connector has any seal ring to the thermoblock in it?
If I put the connector on the thermoblock, there is no sealing. It fits not tighten and wobble a little bit.
So I think there might be the weak point, where the water can find his new route?! What do you think?
If someone has a damaged on/off button. It‘s possible to open the complete switch.
In my case the spring in it was broken and some rust. So I cleaned everything and put in a new spring out of a pen.
Now it works nearly like new. 😅
Regards, Dennis
@@denniseffenberger3515 dear dennis, firstly so glad you found it helpful! Regarding the Thermoblock, yes the connector definitely needs 2 or 3 rubber rings, which unfortunately don't come with the new connector. You have to get them from the broken one or order new ones. Each side of that connector gets 2 or 3 rings. Every other connector in the machine only needs one ring per opening.
@@nathans1978 thanks for your fast response. I forget the two big rings, which are in the broken connecter. With those everything fits and is working perfect. My machine has on all connecters 2 rings.
You are a life saver
Glad to save lives:-) what did you use the video for, if I may ask
Hello ! Thanks for the video, it helps indeed. I think I have the same problem with the same piece that you mentioned on your machine. It seems that the water is coming out from that tube. Could you kindly tell me the name of that part please ? I can’t find it on the Webiste ! Thank you
Hey Nathan, thank you for your great video. I got the problem that water is coming out of the milk frother as soon as I turn on the machine. Even if I turn the knob to the dot (=coffee brewing mode) it leaks troughout the steamer. I've cleaned the machine internally with an espresso decalcifier several times, which is why I assume the problem coming from the steam valve. Do you know how to access it? I've dissambled the machine with your video but the steam valve is the one right behind the turning knob right? Could it be the o rings in the valve which need replacement? Do you know where I can find them or even a new steam valve? Thank you so much.
Hey ich könnte das am besten per Telefon erklären. Bitte an nathansemail1980ATgmail.com schreiben mit Telefonnummer wenn du möchtest:-)
Sonst google Video
Same problem came today, I’ll appreciate any feedback about this issue
@@andriiklymenko4971 same answer:-) see about emailing me
@@nathans1978 can it be fixed it on my own, or it’s better to use repair service?
For my machine there is no water coming out anymore. I managed to open it, but what now? Any idea what the root cause could be?
Is it leaking? Does water come from the steam wand?
Dear Nathan, This is realy helpful. Could you still tell me where you found the piece you mentioned as a Verbinder between the heating system and the tubes. I can not find it on the web site you mention. I am living in Portugal. Thanks a lot!
I'm glad it was helpful! The part is unfortunately no longer available. I ordered it in June and it's still not here. If you read some of the comments you will see a German company suggested by a viewer; apparently the part will be available end of November.
My plan is to try to make the part with high temperature teflon on a lathe. Once I do this I will let you and everyone else know if it is successful
Dear Nathan, I just read your update that the small connector that often breaks on these machines that attaches to the top of the Thermoblock is not available on either of the above mentioned websites anymore. Do you have any other suggestion or is the prototype of Teflon already available? It is a bit a waste to throw the machine away because of such a connector. Hope you con suggest a way out. Regards, Marc
@@marclammerink8618 apparently German company Trepech will have them available end of November
I only just now got the lathe and have to try it. I'll let you know
Hello, how do I get that connector of the heater? U finished the Teflon thing? Let me know. Thx!
What connector? You mean the teflon piece? I've made a protype but no mass production yet. ...I'm doing my best but have little time.
It's available again! See my post from today:)
hola, estoy buscando el recambio que señalas en el minuto 18:21 de color negro, sabrias decirme donde consegirla? gracias!
Hey, hallo, hola! Check out the video description and also read the other comments where I have shared two websites where you can order it:-)

Hi Nathan. Thank you so much for the video. My Lumero started to fool around after an espresso with a slightly too fine grinding grade. The pressure went high and no cofee came out. After this, it began to show a very peculiar error code from which I could not find anything whether in the manual nor on the internet: only the led on the side steam-knob flashed red. After some off/on cycles, it worked again, but started leaking. I opened it on the top and saw that the white water connector on top of the Thermoblock is leaking between the black plate and the connector itself, but I don't know how can I change the connector. Do you have any advise on how to do it?
Thanks!
Yes, just follow the disassembly in the video to the point where you have easy access to the Thermoblock. Unscrew the 6 screws to access the thermal block and replace the piece that is broken. Make sure you save the rubber o-rings from the old broken piece...there are 2 or 3 in each end.
If you look at other comments here you will see places to order the part. Good luck and ask me if you have any other questions
Thank you so much@@nathans1978! I managed to disassemble the Thermoblock cover (the 6 screws) and gained access to the connecting pipe, which at first glance did not seem damaged or broken or cracked. I ordered a new one at Fixpart, but until it arrives, I tried to fix it putting some epoxy resin in the center part with the smaller diameter, but did not solve anything: it keeps leaking while making coffee.
Additionally, I assume that all the steam that kept building up due to the leakage on top of the Thermoblock (you could hear it every time) has been the cause of some rusty screws now, as well as maybe also some electrical contacts on the side steam knob, too: when I turn the knob to the "steam build position" (one position to the left), the led keeps lit white and does not turn red. I tried to dismantle the knob mechanics, too, but I was not able because of the big middle rib that goes front to rear.
@@jlem73the Thermoblock teflon piece and the steam mechanism are the only parts that seam to commonly break. The steam knob can be disassembled by prying off the outer black cap. In there you will find screws which allow you to remove the whole steam mechanism
Another viewer of my video sent me some disassembly pictures and a diagram that could be very helpful. I could email them to you if you think you might want to do that.
Hej, nice Video! Do you have News about these 3D Print?
Hi. I'm working on it. The plan is using a lathe and high density, food grade, high heat tolerance Teflon. It's probably going to be an improvement to the factory ones. Stay tuned...I'll announce when they're ready and tested.
@@nathans1978 Thats sound amazing! Thanks
Tooday, i have short news. The product numer of the spare part is FS-1000050800 and the WMF service station (Trepesch GmbH, Nürnberg) can't order it today. They say, it will be available at the end of november. Price: 7,50€ without delivery.
@@veggiehipster this is great news and a great price! Maybe our chat got them thinking:-) thank you!
@@veggiehipster can you write when you know it's available? Or tell me how to contact them myself?
Hi Nathan, I'm looking for the exact part you mention in minute 16:25. Can you tell me where I can find it? Thanks a lot!
Hi Bernhard! Where do you live? I found it after literally days of searching, on this German website: www.ersatzteile-24.com/WMF/WMF_0412360011.html?seite=2
For future reference, the machine is number 0412360011 when looking on spare parts websites.
Here is the only other website that I could find that sells it (but for a higher price) fixpart.de/de/product/view/0257277101
DONT FORGET TO SAVE THE RUBBER RINGS IN THE OLD CONNECTOR! 🙂 I think there are 2 or 3 in each side.
@@nathans1978 Thank you so much! I will try this one, because the other has 12 weeks delivery time :(
Hallo Nathan, ik zoek ook hetzelfde onderdeel waar je het over had, bij de eerste website die je noemde staat het artikel er niet bij, bij de 2e website staat een artikel zonder foto 'SEB FS - 1000050800 Abdechung - embout/chaudiere' €16,86. Is dit het artikel wat ik moet bestellen?
Yes that's the one! I am amazed that this part is so hard to find...it breaks on many machines. I might have someone 3d print many of them. If I do, I'll let you know. Good luck!
@@nathans1978 oké thank you, and also for the video, it was very helpfull! Elisabeth
@@user-ez9rx8ww8i you're very welcome. Let me know if you have any questions later:-)
It seems to be in stock/available again here: fixpart.de/de/product/view/0257277101
@@nathans1978 I ordered it there indeed, delivery in 2 or 3 weeks so I have to wait for a little while now..
Hi, i have the Terror that Tells there is no Water in it, even when there is whater in... Do you have a solution
I've never heard of that happening with the Lumero. Did the problem happen perhaps due to false reassembly or did you never disassemble the machine? My only other thought is a faulty flow meter. First check that all wires are connected correctly under the top lid. Or could the problem be the connection hole where the water tank enters the machine? Sorry I don't know how to diagnose this. Good luck and let us know if you solve it. ...also try a descaling cycle and see if it responds.
I got it in that condition. It seems to be the pump, i changed the pump, now it's working.
I have the same problem, did you find a solution?
