I purchased one of EricS E61 group thermometer adapters. Nice kit by the way and very easy to order with quick postage.
I always thought from what I had read that the E61 group runs hot at idle but after an hour to get warmed up mine is sitting on ~87°C, which seems to put it in the "running cold" group. A short flush sees temp instantly bounce to ~90-92. Pulling a shot saw a quick momentary spike to 92 then sat on 90.5 for the rest of the shot (~30 seconds).
Is this normal? My Machine is a Giove II and I have left the PID as it was set, which is 91 for the brew boiler.
