Just a little more advice on descaling. Don't forget - vibe pump cannot be run continously when flushing out descaler solution. It take forever to flush out the brew boiler and heat exchanger,because you can't empty it. Pay attention to soak times and solution strength - you can overdo it. The best approach is make sure your water is treated enough to keep scale to a minimun in the first place. - Dennis ----- Original Message ----- From: "Ira" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Tuesday, January 20, 2009 1:51 AM Subject: Re: WOW!
