Re: Bll Pid Sensor Replacement

Quick update after reading more forum entries and getting
frustrated....

I'm seeing several instances of brittle wiring on the temp sensor...

Anyways, I resorted to brute force and pulled the sensor out. The
plastic wire insulation was completely brittle and cracks under the
slightest pressure/flexing.

If I understand you correctly, I'm having the same issue....

Just today I noticed that the temperature readout was only 53 degrees
C... Then the LED would light all the bars... flash and go crazy...
then 52, 53, maybe 54 degrees. It wouldn't get hot enough.... I pulled
a shot and checked the temp with a thermometer and sure enough....

I will be out of the office starting 20/11/2009 and will not return until
30/11/2009.

During this period I will be on vacation and have only occasional access to
E mail.

Best Regards,

John,
I need to replace the wire bulb sensor (and then replace the stat)
that goes into the well on the brew boiler. Should it simply pull out
of the top of well or is it somehow attached. If it just pulls out,
how would you remove it if it feels stuck?
Tx,
Carl

BII doesn't have a PID, just has a regular thermostat.

I need to replace my pid sensor. The old one seems to be stuck in the
well and won't just pull out. Any suggestions?
Tx,

I've been having a similar problem. No E1 errors, but a short while
after being turned on, the pump starts running continuously. Did you
manage to solve your issue?
Thanks,
Bruce

Bobcat, Yes, it is designed to be plumbed in. Yes, the water tank must go.
I suppose you could feed the new pump from an external water bottle.

I'd like to find out more about this kit but can't find it on the WLL site.

I'd like to find out more about this kit but can't find it on the WLL
site. It sounds like you must remove the water tank, is that required
to make this conversion?

I have an In-Sink-Erator insta-hot installed at my house. I filter it
with a GE system (their high-end home user filter, two elements). I
keep it at the highest setting, which occasionally boils here at sea
level, but normally it dispenses around 208F. This unit dispenses hot
or cold, and it is what I use to fill my Brewtus.

Many of us but our tampers from a fellow list member. Les makes the finest
custom wood turned tampers around. I pesonally like the Ridgeline models.

I just got a La Mazorcco single
basket and would like to get a 41 mm
tamper. Anyone knows where I can get one, or if somebody has one
that
does not need it? I can buy it, just let me know how we can make the
transaction. Thanks.
