Hi,

I picked up a second hand BFC Junior earlier this year, it was basically new when I got it - it was won in a competition and the lucky winner didnt drink coffee...

Its been operating flawlessly.

Lately however, Ive noticed a faint "hot plastic" like smell radiating from the boiler area (back-half of cup warmer).

Its faint and only notciable if I put my face over the top of the cup warmer section. I.e. If Im standing in front of the machine, I cant smell it.

Now, it could be just my over sensitive nose, and maybe its always been there. But I thought Id double check incase something is not right.

Ive taken the lid off, but cant see anything in contact with the boiler. Also, most of the electronics/plastic components appear to be in the front section, where they are shielded from the heat of the boiler.

Anyone else every noticed this kind of smell before?

Thanks heaps!
Pete
