I've been having some problems lately with the temperature dropping on my Brewtus IV-R. It never used to do this and I always suspected something was wrong. There is no way the temperature should drop from 96 to 93 after pulling only two shots. Also, not pulling a shot at all but only using the steam wand should not affect the PID temperature.
My dealer tried to convince me this was 'normal' operation. Anyway, nothing normal about this. Last night the unit literally exploded. The mugs I keep on top of the unit were thrown off and smashed on the counter. Obviously one of the boilers blew up but I haven't yet opened the unit to examine the damage. It's a darn good thing Expobar puts such thick metal plates around the unit or it would be a lot worse. Unfortunately, it happened at night and resulted in a few hours of flooding before I noticed it the next morning. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Brewtus" group.
