Any PID fitters in Melbourne?

[gbatterley]

Ive spent quite a long time looking round the site for this but cant find anything.
Anyone know of someone/some shop who is willing to fit a PID kit to a Silvia in Melbourne?
Thanks

...or alternately, spend the $$$ and buy a PIDkits one...

Jims workmanship is excellent and the supplied instructions and DVD could just ablut be given to a 12 year old as a school holiday project

Were happy to fit one of Jims kits if required.

Many thanks for the advice. Ive seen some Auber kits on an auction site I think Ill get one and then pay someone to install it for me. Just deciding how much of a difference the pre-infusion and steam temp control are worth paying the extra for.

Re: Any PID fitters in Melbourne?

Time for some research for you I think Search for preinfusion as a topic here and elsewhere for a heap of reading. Steam temp control wouldnt worry about it the hotter you get the more steam you get but the longer it takes to get back down to doing shots again.

The PID kits website is definately worth a read as Jim has put a lot of time and effort into getting it right and making it easy. If you save a few $$ and cause yourself pain and suffering then is it worth it.

If it were me I would be keeping an eye out for a good second hand HX machine here and selling the Silvia without the PID. While it will cost you a few more $$ consider the time spent waiting to shot to steam and back again with the Silvia compared to no waiting with a HX.

BF... Ya on the money...

But if ya want a good price on flee bay...  The PID term  will attract the moths.. and the $$$ may go up enough; to recover the $$ spent.

Save the $$ and put towards a HX..  Better bang for bucks over time.
