> Hi all, > Need a little advice on my 8 year old B2. All of a sudden I'm getting a ton of steam coming out of the brewhead when I pull some water through it without the portafilter, prior to pulling my shots. I'm also having the thermal cutoff popping on me, on top of the brew boiler. And, twice today, I got an "E1" code come up on the display. The first time, I shut off the machine and let it cool and it went away and the 2nd time, I adjusted the Pstat and it just went away. Now I'm adding this to this post on the PID because when I called tech supp at WLL, they told me it's either the Pstat valve or the PID controller. I just replaced the Pstat about 3-4 months ago. Never touched the PID before, but have been reading the posts about the new one. The thing is, to replace the PID with the same unit is about $50 vs. $235 for the newer version. Have you guys REALLY noticed a significant improvement in your shots for that extra $185??? Will the difference be more significant than when the beans get a little stale? My experience is that is by far the biggest issue with taste. And what is your opinion about my symptoms, PID vs. Pstat or something else? Thanks very much, you guys have always helped me out. I tell people you're my coffee "support group"... Merry Christmas, Jim
