Barry and Ray - this PF wiggle or sneeze (assume that's the same thing?) I can see how this would clear out grounds from the gasket and outside of the screen, but when I take the whole screen and seal out (which I do daily) there's a fair accumulation of residue on the inside of both the screen and the grouphead. My concern is that your method doesn't get that - or have I misunderstood your method?
Ben, on your flushing of the steam boiler, two questions. When you run the hot water until it stops coming - I assume that's because the water in the hot water boiler is too cold to produce pressure, rather than because the boiler is empty (not a good idea, esp with power to the element?). Secondly, I have the (220v European?) configuration which doesn't channel water back from the OPV to the reservoir, but vents it instead to the drip tray (and it's a LOT of water - more than the amount that lands up in the cup). But after more than 18 months the hot water from my HW wand is still perfectly fresh and good - no trace of funk - and I wonder if this is the reason? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Brewtus" group.
