Hm, but I did not disconnect any connectors other than heating elements in both boilers. Of course something might have disconnected while I was using impact wrench. What would break the water out of the brew group? I think white stuff made it into the system and the boilers aren’t filling up with water. There was a lot of it in the top connectors of the brew boiler.
