Overview

Elektra T1 Sixties Deliziosa 1 Group Commercial Espresso Machine

The Elektra T1 Sixties espresso machine is a top choice among discerning cafe owners, and for good reason. Despite its small frame, this machine packs a powerful punch with its standout feature – an impressive 5.5 liter boiler that is seamlessly integrated into its compact design. The machine’s unique construction allows it to take up minimal space in even the busiest commercial settings, making it a popular choice among cafe owners. Additionally, the Elektra T1 Sixties is an excellent option for home use thanks to its compact size and powerful performance. Whether you’re a professional barista or a coffee enthusiast, the Elektra T1 Sixties is sure to impress with its exceptional functionality and impressive design.

This is the new version of the Elektra T1

It does not have a pressurestat to regulate the boiler pressure which is directly proportional to the temperature of the boiler and water in the heat exchanger. This espresso machine has an additional probe in the steam boiler. This probe connects to an electronic controller which regulates the boiler steam pressure. It also will save the heating element from damage from a lack of water in the machine’s boiler. For example, the water company shuts off the water supply due to a water main break.

Other new features on the T1!

This machine is so new that we still have not learned all the programmability of this newly designed machine. Shown below, the touchpad with a K has a series of lights. These lights in program mode can indicate which menu the machine is in. The black electronic control box that has a single series of lights exemplifies the particular setting the machine is in for the particular menu on the touchpad. We will post more here as we learn the different features.

Features

Night Cycle Programming!

The Elektra T1 has a programming feature that can record the top of the hour. With this program, you can also program the top of the hour for the machine to go into Night Cycle (reduced energy usage) and to wake up in the morning (on the hour) to full power. This avoids the need for a separate timer which blasts full power to the machine’s circuitry upon startup.

One can steam milk at the same time as making espresso for large parties

This machine’s high wattage heating element is desired to heat the boiler quickly for quick recovery and temperature stability. The Sixties Series even generates a lot of heat to keep those cups nice and toasty on top – you may want to place this machine with an open overhead area. With a direct water line connection, you never have to worry about filling any water tank, but you do have to remember to recharge the water softener and change the water filter.

More Features:

  • Beautiful Ultra-polished stainless steel finish.
  • Incorporated motor and positive (rotary vane) displacement pump with vibration-damping fastening.
  • Double electronic level control system monitors the water level in the boiler to make sure heating element is submerged in water.
  • The patented heat exchange system is accessible above the boiler for easy inspection and cleaning.
  • Filter on the grouphead removed any large contaminants that may have passed through a broken filter on the water line.
  • The multi-directional steam wand allows movement of steam wand in many different directions.
  • The steam valve and water valve have pivotal lever controls.
  • Dual-acting, high-precision gauge shows both pump pressure and boiler pressure.
  • Heating element with safety thermostat for additional protection.
  • NEW wood handle on portafilter and steam/hot water joystick controls.
  • Accessories: 1-cup and 2 -cup filter baskets, single spout portafilter, double spout portafilter, instruction manual, and stainless steel braided hose for direct water connection.

Notes

  1. Instruction manual: Please note as of 1/1/25, the Elektra T1 no longer comes with a printed instruction manual. Below are links to the manuals:

General Espresso Machine Notes/Warnings:

  • Upon first use (tank/reservoir models): On the initial start-up (or after a long period of non-use), it is important to make sure the pump is removing water from the tank. When the machine is powered on, you will hear the pump running. After 5 seconds, squeeze the in-line hose in the tank (usually the longest hose, has a particle filter attached). if you hear a different sound, this means the pump is working correctly. If not, immediately power down the machine and contact us. For more information, visit this page General Manual Pump Priming.
  • Electrical: To avoid electrical damage to this espresso machine which is not considered a manufacturer's defect, please acquire and install a single-outlet surge suppressor rated at 1080 joules or higher. Without the recommended surge suppressor, the espresso machine can be damaged at the power switch, the electronics, the heating element, the pressurstat, or the wiring inside. For more information, visit this page Power Protection.
  • Water: To increase the useful life and not damage your espresso machine, please use softened water. Softened water is water without calcium and magnesium, but still has other minerals for espresso extraction. Do not use distilled, purified, or reverse osmosis water as these types of water create oxidation with the metals and cause the same damaging effects as limescale. For more information, visit this page Water Choice.
  • Descaling: We do not recommend descaling unless there is an issue with the espresso machine. Too much descaling can eat away at the metals and gaskets inside an espresso machine. As a preventative measure, we recommend using softened water as explained in the bullet point above.
  • Backflushing: This procedure of cleaning the grouphead will need to be performed from time to time. For more information, visit this page Espresso Machine Backflush – Why 50?

    I have a T1 that I purchased from you in 2020. The boiler safety valve is releasing pressure all of the sudden. Goes about 1 hr. It happens every 2 or 3 weeks. Not every day. Pressure at the water filter is usually about 2bars. But it seems higher when this happens. 4bars Does the valve need to be replaced?

    Asked by Lucio on September 12, 2023 10:59 am
    Answered by the admin During warm up, the anti vacuum valve will release some steam and a little hot water right before steam pressure is achieved. However, if the boiler is overfilled with water (not normal), a lot of water will exit the anti vaccum valve as the water level sensor is probably corroded from the water. in the aforementioned case, the steam pressure gauge will never go over 1.5 bar. If the steam pressure gauge goes over 1.5 bar pressure (not normal), the PID sensor is probably corroded from the water and it is going over temp. The sensor located on the boiler behind the lower front panel will need to be first disconnected and then removed without bending the wire. Lots of water will drain and the machine will need to air dry for 24 or more hours. The sesnor will need to be cleaned with a wire brush and reinserted with plumber tape. Reconnect the electrical connection then retest after complete drying of the unit.

Here is a link to the part on our website: 02492011. If you add your email to the waiting list, you will be notified once it is available in stock.
    4. From the previous question… can I use the 220v solenoid coil if the originals are 110v? I have a 220 v machine. Btw the parts diagram from Elektra lists both 110 and 220v for that particular part.

    The part that was ordered stated 220 volts in the lower description. You can review the different diagrams (different versions of T1 are near bottom of page) as posted on our web site.
    5. I am in the process of refurbishing my machine. I have a 2010 build purchased from you. I purchased two Parker solenoid valve coils from you recently to replace the old ones, assuming since I have a 220v machine I would need the 220v valve coils (the diagram for that model does not specify which coils are needed). To my surprise the original valve coils are are 110v. Can I use the 220v coils when the originals are 110v? Alternatively would you be willing to exchange the 220v coils for 110v coils? Both of the replacement coils I ordered have not been used or installed. I am well aware of your policy on returns etc. I have many unreturned parts sitting around that I ordered incorrectly, however I feel that ordering the 220v coils for a 220v machine was an honest mistake as nowhere can I find any indication that I needed 110v coils for this particular model. Thanks in advance for your response.

    We understand it is an honest mistake. Sorry, as like many other vendors, we do not take parts returns as there is no way to test electrical parts unless we install them on a machine. Elektra usually notes their parts diagrams with 110 V and 220 V designations. We recommend selling them in a marketplace.

    3 bars is too high. Not knowing the age of the machine, we suggest hiring a professional - the reason is that a part may be replaced and may not need to be replaced. A professional can usually determine in person where the leak is coming from. Otherwise, you may have a leak from the bleeder valve, the safety valve, the HX pipe, solenoid valve, the OPV or a combination thereof. We are sorry that it is not as simple as some people think.

    Sorry, the night cycle programming occurs for all days of the week - it can not be programmed with different times for each day.

    We believe the night cycle programming locks the user from any usage. The reason is for security. However, we will have to double check if Elektra made any changes on the last batch.

    Asked by Todd Lesser on September 25, 2019 6:43 pm
    Answered by the admin

    Thanks for the inquiry. Should the manufacturer be responsible if the person installed it incorrectly? Should the manufacturer be responsible if other parts of the machine damaged the old control board as well as the new one? Hence, it states on our web site that parts are not returnable and non-refundable and no warranty.

    Our only other option is to not sell control boards and just have everyone ship their machine in for repair. In addition, there were customers who in the past would send back their old defective boards back claiming the new one was defective. A similar event happened recently when a customer tried to return a set of AFTERMARKET Mazzer grinding burrs, which he claimed did not fit his grinder, that were not the originals (OEM) Mazzer burrs we shipped out and had taken a photo of before shipping. This is also why we place serial number stickers.

    As stated, the control board may not be your issue. It is  a needle in the haystack to source the cause, and this is why we already recommended in a previous answer to have a professional evaluate the machine.

    Sorry to hear about this.

    These machines can last up to 15 or even 20 years. The repair facility probably does not want to touch it because the cause you described can be a lot of time chasing down the multiple problem electrical areas of the machine. We are unable to determine if it is worthwhile fixing or not because we are unsure how many electrical components may be needed.

    In towards the back, there is a reset (back side of white part) on the black internal frame. Unplug the unit, and push it in. If it clicks, your machine may be ok. If not, this may be the first part that needs replacement with the understanding one or more other components may need to be changed.

    27. My 2011 unit has had a lot of strange problems. First was the boiler not filling. Then the boiler was overfilling. Cleaning the water sensors and the device that the overflow sensor fits into initially didn’t fix the problem but after a couple of days of use, those problem went away. - I only bring this up in case it is related to the next problem because I would have thought that cleaning the sensors would have immediately fixed any water filling or overfilling issues. The motor would also surge for a little while on startup. That also stopped happening a couple of days after the cleaning. The final problem is the unit still isn’t starting up properly. When you first turn it on, the heating element safety switch relay will click for several minutes. The first light on the left will blink. Eventually, the first then the second light with blink as if it is trying to start up. Then, all the lights will blink in order and a normal start up will occur. Today, I tried something new. After the clicking started, I turned the programming key. When I did this, the four right lights were blinking. I left it like this for a minute or so. I then turned the programming key back to normal operation. The machine tried to start up. The first light then the second light would blink - then the clicking of the heating element safety switch would happen. I turned the key back into programming mode. I left it that way for another minute or so. I turned the key back to normal mode and the machine started up normally. Could I have a bad computer? Bad power supply? Bad heating element safety switch? Time seems to be the issue. It takes about the same time for the machine to start working normally whether I just turn it on and hear clicking the whole time or if I just turn the programming key and let the machine sit for a few minutes without the clicking.

Very complex situations are outside the scope of our support after the warranty has expired as a professional should evaluate the machine. The main reason is that customers will end up on a wild goose chase buying so many parts that may not be needed and are not returnable (not returnable because we can not test electronics and we also do not want to resell parts that were tried on other machines for repair).

    The cause here may not be so obvious.  In other words, the sensor may not be bad, but the water TDS may have changed or the wiring or auto refill brain unit may be bad. We can only suggest descaling the machine, cleaning the sensor on the lower front portion of the boiler before having a professional evaluate it.
    28. My unit was built in 2011. It is having a lot of strange problems. First, some times the boiler goes empty. Other times it overflows. I cleaned the Level Probe and the safety Probe. I even removed and did the best I could at cleaning the holder under the Level Probe the best I could. There is no part number but it shows it under 18 and above 12 in the D.1 Boiler-Assembly diagram. The second problem is the motor is clicking on and off for over a minute when I first turn it on. Then the heating element safety switch can then click on and off for a few minutes. The first light on the machine on the left hand side blinks when this is happening. After awhile, the clicking stops and the machines starts its normal startup process.

    Diagram

    On the bottom tube of part #14, there are two little holes - one on the side and one on bottom. Both need to be cleared as this would create the issues you are experiencing.

    Otherwise, it is the quality of the water being used - limescale build up or oxidation on the metals.

    Lastly, if the problem still persists, the unit would need to be evaluated by a professional.
    29. When our machine turns on, it is making a loud clicking sound before starting up. It sounds like a relay or a solenoid. I couldn’t isolate the sound. It can go for 30 seconds or longer. I have to shut off the machine. Other times it clicks four or five times and then the start up sequence acts like normal. It is intermittent. What part may be going bad? Today, the water fill started and started overflowing the boiler. I had to shut off the machine. I wasn’t sure if that was the same part. Second, I would like to order additional sensors for my boiler. (The ones that connect up to wires with the orange/red protective covers). What are the part numbers ? I know the one on the left is for the autofill for the boiler. What does the one on the right do?

    The two sensors are for minimum and maximum water level. Both can be cleaned as this 'may' the issue with the clicking sound.

    Since there are multiple versions of the same model machines, we can only provide a link to the diagrams so each custoemr look up their particular model.

    As for the clicking sound, it can be a solenoid valves, brain unit, the water level sensors or wiring. Unfortunately, there are no tests for this other replacing the parts one at a time - old school style.
    30. I have an Elektra that I bought from you (before you moved). It's similar to the T1. (I saw the term La Deliziosa on one of the brochures.) Can this machine take pods, because I have a lot of leftover pods from a Paris trip and just wondering if there is a portafilter that could accomodate them. They are Café Richard brand, round pods 1-3/4 inch diameter. Thanks!
