first of all, you guys are makeing me laff with the 8-track (Godbless
the 4 track) deck and the crystal radio. you did skip by the 78's and
45's, tho!
that should be todd's next project - to make a switchable 15 or 20
amp model that can run both boilers - like the Spaziale.
there is/was an coffee shop in washington state with a lingerie clad
(not porno) crew that sports a free webcam. its called Brewistas.com
otherwise, i understand wash and ore sport female baristas that also
perform sexual favors and are dressed scantily. -Dennis

Correct. Even though both lights are on sometimes, only one boiler
fires at a time.

Hi Dennis
As far as I am aware the Brewtus does not run both boilers at the
same time, steam boiler taking priority.

John, those are good numbers. it seems our US 110v 15 amp models
really sacrifice the power. IIRC the internal wiring , power
switch, and power cord must be upgraded in size to even run both
boilers at once, and that is with 900 watt elements . (re: Sean
Lennon) it is cool yours can be turned into such a
powerhouse. now you will have to worry about blowing the milk
out of the cup!! - Dennis

Hi Guys
Just thought I would give some feedback on the 220v 2000watt
steam boiler upgrade I had done on my Brewtus IV-R a few months
ago. Was a straight element swop out as all the wiring seems to
be fine for the added current, was intere4sted to fdind out that
all the OZ versions seems to come with 2000watt elements as
standard, mine game with a 1200watt element, obviously EU spec
or something like that.
When I had the 1200watt element installed I always felt that I
could do with a bit more steam power, pressure used to drop from
1.4bar down as far as 0.5 bar when steaming the milk and whilst
it worked I always felt a bit jealous, especially when I was
loaned a GS3 whilst my machine was getting a service (an evil
plan by my machine retailer). I had a single hole tip installed
so I could get better results with my steamed milk, this
resulted in very slow steaming and slowed the whole process down
when making capuchino's.
I would like to say that since I have had the 2000watt element
installed the steam power has been awesome. I have changed my
steam tip from a single hole to a 4-hole tip which steams a
250ml milk jug to 65C in 18 seconds so the speed is MUCH better.
single hole used to take around 45 seconds. Pressure is also
greatly improved, I start steaming at 1.4bar and the poressure
stays there unless the boiler has to fill at which point it will
drop down to around 1.2 bar and then moves up to 1.4 bar again.
I no longer lust after the GS3 (ok, perhaps still just a little
bit :-) ) but am much happier with my steaming results and my
latte art has improved a lot since the change.
