    Wattage difference... heating element part
    I am trying to repairing my espresso machine boiler... I cannot locate the exact part... my boiler is rated at 110v and 1400 watts... I have located one that will fit but is only at 1300 watts...

    Will this work?
    Thanks

    Electrically and mechanically, it should work, however, the new element will not produce as much heat as the existing.

    It may produce enough heat for the process, not sure if it will or not.
