Well folks it has FINALLY happened!!!!1one
We have HX
My "partner" a far more genuine CS than I, used to work in this lil cafe they had this machine that made great coffee, this was all in the distant past.
We have been looking for some time and PMing the brethren here for clue on "prospects", all these prospects were weighed up against the "old Baby" she used to use. Finally 2 weeks ago at the sorry end of an evilbay fight I said "will you just call those people and at least find out what the heck we are comparing everything too?" the call was made and yes they could tell us what it was because "ITS IN THE GARAGE"......ZOMG...." ok well if its.....there... do you think you might ......sell it?"...yes $50 will see it yours..and by the way the 2 group machine we replaced this with never made as good a cup, we wish we could use it here but we cant"..... As a result of this...WE HAVE IT.
What is it I hear you ask? ancient external pump Boema...I can just hear "fresh Coffee" saying "its a coffee burner" But my view is this and I really believe this "if it made good coffee once, there is no good reason why it cant again."
it has fitted a timer (which we believe was fitted later but unsure) Judging from the wiring diagrams this can be bypassed.
The Boiler in this thing is bigger than most steam trains.
Its the worst time of year to get parts I know but Ill leave messages @ Boema and see what happens
The motor and pump are now working, the plate at the back of the pump was badly pitted so replaced it with some 316 SS 2mm plate (hell of a time getting the C clip off, it broke into 4 bits) but now she works a treat..no leaks there even under back-pressure.
anyhow pictures will follow....need some advice though please.
Id like to fire it up but Im afraid of cooking the elements. Does the RL40ES look after the "zero water in boiler" status and not allow power to the elements before the water level sensor reads water?
This being OK is there anything else to worry about before the juice is applied?
I know I need patience But i want it NOW!
PS. someone tell me this is not going to burn coffee
