That was my question to you! Does the pulsing provide some value? My guess would be that if you add a capacitor it will raise the voltage and probably reduce the brewing time? Not to be argumentative, but try to measure the output of the diode without hooking to your jars and see if you don't measure about 55 volts on your meter. The jars will act as a small capacitor changing the reading towards the peak value of 160 volts. The meter I used is an old fashioned multimeter, not a modern digital meter. What kind of meter are you using? Once I thought I was wrong, but I was mistaken. Juergen P.
