Hello!
I have recently purchased a La Pavoni Europiccola and a Mazzer Mini, and must say i am really pleased with the purchase! Both the coffee machine and the grinder are excellent!!! However, i donīt like the steam wandīs 3 whole tip. I wonder if it is possible to replace the original tip (with 3 holes) with a single hole on newer La Pavoni machines?

Screwing the new one on you can do with your hand. It's getting the old one off after years of milk caramelizing on the threads that requires a tool... But yes, especially if you have the gold plated one, using a box-end wrench or crescent would be gentler.
