Hi there,

I have one of these:

The little plastic tap has a crack in it which causes it to leak hot water. It looks like the tap will be a pain in the bum to change if it is even possible.

Can anyone reccommend me something to glue/seal the crack which will be safe to come into contact with drinking water as people make thier cups of coffee etc using this machine. I don't think there is huge pressure behind tthe water as I guess the boiler has a tank of some form inside.

Thanks in advance!
 
Great, thanks, I rang the manufacturers and they were not even sure they did a spare! Will take a look at that site.

Brass tap body is leaking.
I have attached an image of the brass body within a tap. Having replaced a cartridge which has cured a leaking tap, I can see that there is a small leak from the brass body which can be unscrewed. Is there a seal behind the body? Thanks.
