Re: Pressure is now acting weird on my Brewtus III
Well, I did the adjustment, but it still flucuates (pulsating up and down, gets quiet when it goes down). Even though I put it back to 10, when I try to do a another blind basket, it only will go to around 7, but moves way past 10 when I put the lever back down. What is the next step? I also notice when the water comes out of the opv, it seems weaker. Is this due to lack of pressure? Cindy On Jun 7, 5:03 pm, Todd Salzman to...@wholelattelove.com wrote: Yes, that is correct. Let me know how you make out. Todd Thanks Todd. I'll try that when I get home. So I just adjust back up to 10 while I do a backflush? Just want to make sure. -Original Message- From: Cindy Goddard [bigstormg...@gmail.com] Date: 06/07/2011 05:01 PM To: Brewtus Subject: Re: Pressure is now acting weird on my Brewtus III Note: Original message sent as attachment -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Brewtus group.

Re: Pressure is now acting weird on my Brewtus III
I would recommend replacing the pump, air remover and the OPV all at the same time. It will cost a little more to do all of them but then you can be sure that you will have solved the problem.

Todd, is this covered under the warranty? It's only 3 months old.

I have had good luck disassembling the OPV and cleaning it to solve this issue.

Re: Pressure is now acting weird on my Brewtus III
Just wanted to correct my above post. Using the blind basket did not go to full pressure like it used to. It maxes out at 8 and drops to 7. Pump goes very quiet when it drops. Used to go to 10 and hold. On Jun 7, 2:20 pm, Cindy Goddard bigstormg...@gmail.com wrote: My barely 3 month old Brewtus has been not acting the same this week. All of the sudden, my pressure fluctuates during extraction. Also, it won't go to 9.5 bars like it used to. But, with a blind basket, it does fine. Sometimes the vibe pump almost goes silent. It was working great till this week. I'm stumped! Cindy -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Brewtus group.
