Still waiting for WLL response on this but google produces similar kind of incidents eventually leading to heating element rupture - is this a likely cause in Brewtus? How easy is removing / replacing brew boiler element? Also, I am guessing my brew boiler has plenty of this white sludge now - how do you get it out - descale? Thanks.
