This is by far the best Oscar video I've found. If you ever decide to do a video showing how to do the mods I'll click it right away. Subscribed. Thanks man!
Great video! Very informative. Had no idea there was a programmable version of the Oscar 1. Just finished restoring an 05 model and also thinking of getting the Specialita so this really helped! I’ll be looking into these mods! Thanks again!
Good afternoon. Can you help me? I want to install on the coffee machine Nuova Simonelli Oskar L Manometer for the group (wedge 9Bar). Tell me please what kind of parts are needed per other manometer
I bought the tip from Elektros.it but shipping is pricey to my location...and despite it being way better than the stock tip, I still prefer other tips more...
It was only on the Oscar-T model. When the preinfusion pauses/stops it opens the three way solenoid valve which releases any pressure that built up, something to consider...
They stopped producing it, replaced with the Oscar 2 machine maybe 4 years ago or so... Although the new version is a very similarly built machine albeit with a different look.
Shower screen is an IMS 200 IM shower screen (can be ordered from many online retailers - I prefer Bluestarcoffee.eu in Ireland, I think they ship worldwide). Any 58mm basket will fit, if I remeber correctly this was a standard 18g basket...
I understand you put the OPV kit from Elektros. Did you order that part recently or did you make this modification a long time ago? I keep checking the site and it shows keeps showing that the part is not available. Thanks.
I ordered the parts sometime around November 2019... I believe it is a similar kit to the new Oscar's (they really didn't change much), so I suspect the part shortage may be covid related....

Hi! I purchased a secondhand Oscar and I've been having a little bit of trouble with steam power consistency after changing to a LM tip. If you could spare any time and help me diagnose any issues I'd really appreciate it!
Sorry if this sounds naive. But what if I want to make only one coffee cup at a time ( a latte ). What do I do so that I can make one coffee cup a time.. instead of 2?
I prefer to have both the spouts pour into one cup for a stronger drink, other options would be to use a single basket with 8 or so grams of coffee, or just let half the shot run into the drip Tray.... Although I cringed writing that last suggestion...
It is a bit of work, I wouldn't suggest it unless you are handy... I had the machine completely taken apart and cut out two holes in the metal chassis to fit the manometers (done with a drill and a 50mm bi-metal hole saw), then I had to cut the same two holes into the plastic casing to install the actual gauges.. The manometers were ordered from elektros.it. Here is a video someone posted some time ago which should give you a decent idea of what to expect - czcams.com/video/rTIcXW6ZHqc/video.html The major difference is that I installed one gauge on the left instead of both on the right. **If you install a gauge on the left MAKE SURE there is enough clearance so that it does not interfere with the bottom thermosyphon tube going back to the boiler, and do not damage the pre-drilled holes which hold the front plastic casing in place. Again, not recommended unless you are handy and confident...
@@oscarm6237 Wow, that was a nice package, I got a used one was 2014 vision and it did't have Sirai pressure stat and vacuum valve and timed programmability, but I installed my DIY giggler with 2.7mm inner diameter, restricted the flow further more.

Thanks so much! Awesome video . . . would love to see your gauge mod pics (if you took some) ;-)
Anyway you can make a video of adding the 2 gauges?

Are you able to provide the links for the modification on your machine? keen to start messing around with mine
I have a good deal for this I wonder if I should buy this in 2020. I don’t know where to get a better steam tip.

wow! I didn't know about preinfusion in Oscar1
It was only on the Oscar-T model. When the preinfusion pauses/stops it opens the three way solenoid valve which releases any pressure that built up, something to consider...
@@oscarm6237 I have Oscar2 and was surprised that one of the previous models had this feature
@@oscarm6237 I have an NS Oscar. How can I know if it is the T model or the previous one not programmable? Does it say it anywhere? Thanks.
@@coffeeloveralways2371 the manufacturing sticker/plate on the bottom will let you know the specific model
Where did you get it? I cant find a machine like this for sale anywhere

I've never used the LM steam tip.... The frothing on this machine requires some practice...
What size drill bit did you use to cut the holes for the gauges?
I don't recall, I simply measured the diameter of the gauges and used a hole saw...

@@oscarm6237 It would be a good option to consider a dual manometer (two in on body). There are plenty of them in the market with good price ranges.

Does this T vision has boiler insulation?
Yes it did. A stock T model came with a non-adjustable opv, a Sirai pressure stat, a vacuum breaker valve, and the timing/mechanical pre-infusion...
