Delonghi water tap adaptor

thingiverse

This is an adapter designed to connect a hose directly to the water tap on the Delonghi Eletta coffee machine during descaling. The connector allows you to attach a hose and drain water into the sink. The Delonghi Eletta water tap has specific dimensions, including a black nozzle with a diameter of 11 mm and a height of 6 mm. A standard water hose with a diameter of about 12 mm is recommended for use with this adapter. To print the adapter, I used ColorFabb NGEN filament, which has a glass transition temperature of 85 degrees Celsius. This is essential because plain PLA filament will deform due to the high water temperature. Here are the materials needed: * Filament with a high glass transition temperature, such as ColorFabb NGEN * A standard water hose * A rubber band or similar item to secure the adapter to the tap * Ty-rap to secure the hose Have fun making this adaptation!
