The classic, non-insulated steam wand of the GS3
This steam wand guides the steam to the milk and comes in the non-insulated version, so the tube gets hot during operation. It is at full temperature with every use and is wiped off afterwards. Over time, limescale builds up in the openings and the foam becomes coarse.
The wand carries the number T.2.101. The part number is T.2.101.
When it is due
- The foam stays coarse, even after descaling.
- The steam jet is uneven or deflected to the side.
- The tube is bent or damaged.
- There is limescale inside that can no longer be removed.

Important for installation
The wand gets very hot during operation and sits on a steam-carrying line. That is why we do not provide step-by-step instructions. The machine must be depressurised and cooled down, and the replacement belongs in the hands of a specialist.
Who it is for
For GS3 owners who prefer or are replacing the classic, non-insulated wand.
What goes with it
From our workshop in Bern and Zurich
With the non-insulated wand, we explicitly point out to the team at the counter that the tube gets hot – this is intentional and not a malfunction. That is our routine, not a manufacturer's specification. Then we pull an espresso with Nutty Delight and check that everything is right – more in our coffee beans.
Returns excluded
Spare parts are excluded from exchange and return. They are procured to order and cannot be resold after being installed or test-fitted on the machine. So before ordering, check the model, year of manufacture and serial number of your machine – or drop us a line and we will clarify the fit together. Your rights in the event of defective goods remain unaffected.
Is the wand insulated?
No, this is intentionally the non-insulated version. The tube gets hot during operation.
My foam has got worse – does the wand have to be replaced?
Not necessarily. First descale thoroughly and clean the openings. That is often enough.
