OK, new battery - no reading at all, same display as when probes are not touching. Normal reading when probes touching |
Just by process of elimination, and without verifying a short to ground, does this isolate the brew boiler element as the culprit? Thanks all for your help! |
Hi Ira - the probes are in the female connectors that attach to the element connectors, so they are disconnected from the element with these readings. If they were connected to the element with power, the GFI would trip.

Hi guys,Ok, connected steam boiler wires to brew boiler – it did NOT pop the GFI, and is now coming up to temperature.So, looks like it is not the boiler element – what’s next to check?Steve

Same thing just happened to me. The wires to the old AKO temp probe shorted because the insulation had dried and cracked off.
Sometimes the brew boiler would come up to temp and sometimes it wouldn't. When I removed the temp probe I found that the wires were bare inside the probe and thereafter got the E1 error.
Just replaced the PID and temp probe
with the Gicar using the kit from Wholelattelove and all is
well.

Hi folks - update: with a 17mm deep impact socket and a cordless impact wrench, the old temp probe came right out.
WLL tech support informed me the probes for the old AKO's are no longer available, so installing the PID. |
--
I have the new PID, relay and temp probe installed and wired up exactly as the diagram and pictures show.
As soon as I powered it up, the GFI popped again.
Disconnected the brew boiler element, powered it up, and it does not pop the GFI. (Steam boiler element wires connected as normal)
Connect the steam boiler wires to the brew boiler, GFI popped.
With the brew element reading 13.1 ohms, and the steam element reading 13.4 ohms, what should I test next?
Thanks for helping me chase this gremlin!

Crap, that sucks. But, it sounds like you needed the probe replaced anyway.
I would try to look at the wires involved with the short—try to inspect them for cracks and possible shorts to ground.Did you already check anything on the pressure stat? A couple of ways I could think to test this—one would be to remove all the wires (tag them first) and check continuity across the p-stat. You should have it to one of the outbound terminals only (the ones marked NO and NC). If there’s continuity across all three it would seem there’s a short in the part. Also, you could connect the inbound wire to the outbound wire that would continue on to the boiler (covered with tape or something to keep them from touching a boiler, etc.) and see if the GFI still trips. If not, that would rule in the p-stat as the source of the short. In other words, mimic the function of the p-stat by directly connecting the wires to each other.Short of that—no pun intended—it still seems like the element is the likely culprit, but the ohm reading is throwing me for a loop.Hmmmm…..still thinking here…bmc

What are “RTD” leads, |
Found the socket size in the WLL Wiki page - 1 7/16? Everything else is metric, so that seems a little strange. Converting that to metric would be 36.51 mm, wondering if the actual size is 36 or 37mm?Steve

Yeah, thanks a lot Ira! Now I have to remodel my kitchen as well!
Wow! I wish you hadn't posted this. Now I'm drooling over it. Looks like they don't have any more in stock according to the web page. Keep us posted on how you like it. I'm still using a mazzer mini that I converted from doser to doseless. I've had it 10 years and replaced the burrs once but I've been itching to replace it. |

Looks like a really great grinder - very compact and very nice visual appeal. Anybody know what the ring was that the video showed when filling the basket? I have been using a canning funnel that fits into my basket very well, but it is a bit unwieldy. |
It's a dosing funnel. Here are some more examples: |
They look amazing! I'm just not satisfied with the mini and was trying to decide which route to go when I saw this. Now I have to convince myself to part with the cash :) |
And I guess if we're going down that rabbit hole, I should point out this: http://lynweber.com/product/eg-1/ Similar but different and only $3,300. |
