Eric,

 

I think you’re on the right track. The pstat controls steam pressure and 
they’re definitely subject to failure. That’d be my first move but others may 
have more ideas.

 

Good luck,

Jonathan

Subject: Steam boiler overpressure

 

Brewtus 2 with pid and lots of other replaced parts.

 

Heard hissing from machine and assumed it was a leaking vacuum breaker valve. 
Replaced oring even though old looked good.

 

Tonight i heard hissing again and luckily noticed the steam pressure was 
pegged. Opened the tap and it took a lot of water and steam before pressure 
dropped.

 

The overpressure switch didnt fire, but i guess thats just if the pressure 
valve doesnt leak.

 

So... Whats the part i need? Is it the pstat? Last time mine died there was no 
steam - i liked that failure mode better.

 

Thanks!

Eric
