Hi Guys, Problem with my brewtus 2.
On Wednesday I see that machine indicates 198f. It never reaches 203f. On thursday the machine won't go above 196. Today it is stuck between 193 and 194. The dot on the pid is mostly lit except when steam boiler comes on, indicating there should be voltage going to the brew element. When steam heat light goes out the brew heat dot comes back. I think that means that pid and temp probes are good, the steam element is good (otherwise the steam heat light would just stay on.) Something in the machine is slowly fading. Has anyone seen a heater element fail this way? Is that how they fail? I had a steam heat element go out once but by the time I noticed it was more than mostly dead. I'll open the box up tonight to test voltage at the heater elements, continuity at the overtemp cutoff. Anything specific I should look for? Anyone have this problem before and know the fix? Anyone have a part number for a 110v brew heater element for brewtus 2? I kinda want my coffee to keep working sooner rather than later. Thanks!
