ULKA EP5 Vibration Pump - Coffee Espresso Machine Spare Part

Fits and works on Barista Express, simple to fit. Can look daunting but a cheap easy fix, plenty of tutorials on YouTube. Anyone looking to fix their machine my symptoms were - hot water spitting from the hot water tap, no pressure on coffee but small ammounts of water still pushing through the machine and barely any pressure coming from steam wand. My first attempt was fixing the Solanoids this didn't work. I purchased this pump, swapped it in and machine works perfectly again!

Great electric pump just what was needed to repair gargia coffee machine. Worked perfect, good voice level, excellent at milk frothing, no leakage,

Fixed my gaggia classic pro (2020) I can have coffee again!

The part arrived quickly but the new pump when fitted is very noisy compared to the previous one. The pump is working and the delivery was sooner than anticipated so tge service was good.

This is the correct pump for a Gaggia Classic and many other domestic and commercial coffee makers. If your machine is struggling to start pumping or making nasty coffee it may be the pump. Its inexpensive, arrived quickly and easy to fit. In our experience they last about four years with daily use so we almost treat the pump as a consumable. Our Classic is on at least its third pump.

Excellent. Coffee machine working again!

I had purchased a Sage Barista Express off an auction site for a vastly reduced price to what they normally retail for. Admittedly, it did say it was a return item but I didn't know that it wouldn't work completely. Having looked through numerous websites to see what might be the issue, I figured out that it might be the water pump that had given up the ghost, so I dismantled the machine and took a look. I then realised that there wasn't many suppliers of water pumps for Sage coffee machines and Sage themselves were of no use whatsoever, as they wanted to charge me a couple of hundred pounds to service the machine! I managed to find this on Amazon and took a punt on it. What's the worst that could happen? I'd be saving myself a few hundred quid anyways. Once it arrived, I spent the best part of a morning taking the machine apart and replacing the pump. I then put it all back together again and switched it on and.... it worked! I was impressed that a) I managed to fit the bloody thing and b) that it worked. Saved me a ton of cash and I now have delicious coffee whenever I want it. Definitely recommend this.

Perfect fit, my Barista Express is working a treat now after replacing an overheating pump which was tripping the thermal fuse. It had made about 12,000 cups of coffee over 8 years before it decided to slowly die. Sounds alot more healthy than the old pump for sure and giving very good pressure too! Thank you.
