I recently noticed that after my Brewtus II reached 201 F when first turned on that the brewgroup was *not *hot to the touch. After pulling a few ounces of water, the brewgroup heats up and stays hot the rest of the day. I have a PID and the Brewtus II is turned on in the morning by a timer.
*Is this the normal operation?* I started to wonder if this was really a problem and reread the manual. I found the following statement: "First, move the lever to full up position and let the pump run about 2 to 4 ounces of water through the empty portafilter basket .... this step preheats the cup and also brings the brewgroup up to temperature ..." I looked at the Brewtus IV manual and found similar instructions. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Brewtus" group.
