| What appliance timer should I get for the Brewtus 2? The one that I was using, rated at around 1700 watts, has "burned out". I do not know if that was due to an electrical problem in my house (there may be one - I am also looking into that) of if the timer itself could not handle the load. I see on the label "975 watts" - but I see it twice - i assume once for the steam boiler and once for the espresso boiler. |
There are 2 heating elements of 975 watts or something, but they never come on at the same time. A 1700 watt timer should be fine. Relay/switch contacts do have a limited life if they switch large currents. If you can open it up, a piece of fine black sandpaper might clean the contacts up and it might work perfectly again.
