    Re: This thing is going to burn my great beans"I KNOW"

    another oldie thread

    on my power bill if your running 2000w it would be about .46 cents per hour. I pay 23 cents per KWH but i pay a bit more for green power (by choice).
    depending on cycle time maybe 35 cent and hour?
    my carimali is 3000w so 69 cents for me (worst case)

    yeah run full time adds up, pro costs little more than the Giotto Flynn aus? Cycle time may be shorter for the boema?

    Snooze can you time it for us, i would like to know as mine is seeming to have a very short cycle

    thanks

      A challenge...WoW
      we have our coffee only at breakfast

      Monday to Friday this is one cup each for Anna and I ( I know this seems extravagant bit this is coffee snobs and if you think it is then...mebe you are in the wrong part of the interwebs) I get up turn her ON open steam valve till the auto fill stops, go turn PC on, have a nature break, throw a shoe at the dogs to shut them up, back to PC check emails/evilbay/all my forums. then back to Anita and 3 flushes Grind...make my coffee...Anna is prolly 30mins behind me she makes her cup and after the clean, turns her off so weekdays she may be on for 90 mins tops.

      Sat Sun and pubhols Anna has the same but I have from 3 -5 depending on the week and what we are doing, over a much better, slower, tastier breaky. maybe on for 3 hours.

      Warm up time is about 20 mins but tomorrow Ill let you know in detail and Ill also watch for the cycles.

        Thanks snooze

        I saw a couple of Boemas at an auction today, there was a 2grp that must have been built about the same time as yours had that same sticker on the back and the same Knob style controls.

        I bid on the more modern one 2grp volumetric but the vendor wanted nearly 10 times my bid for a machine of unknown condition and no group handles......... :-?

        i could have passed it on to someone to make coffee with rather than it sit there rotting and useless......

                Ordered new double basket and spring plus new tamper from Mr Pullman, about to order new burs for Pedro.

                I also noted somewhere timber handles...might have to give the "father in law" another turning job. I ordered a Jarrah handle for the tamper as this is what our benches are, it would be nice to have a handle the same 8-)
