Someone runs in “the espresso machine is blasting steam!” I switch it off and switch off steam boiler (brewtus 4).
Later I have time I plug it in and breaker trips as soon as I flip on steam boiler. Ok. A short. Well… I mostly drink espresso so I leave steam boiler off for whole summer. Thinking what could it be? I’m imagining the steam heating element looks like the Chernobyl core. Finally summon the courage and open machine. Lots of white mineralization. Over temp sensors aren’t tripped. Swap in new pstat and… no short, no problemo, machine is back to 100%. I’m guessing all the water inside tripped the breaker. Appears my pstat failed ‘on’. In the past for me they’ve always failed ‘off’. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Brewtus" group.
