Hi everyone,
I have seen around several photographs of E61 machines with a digital thermometer installed in the brew head by removing the nut that is right there.
I am in doubt if to install this and would like your opinion. Is there anyone who has already done this and obtained a real benefit?
Simpy put, my doubt is the following: why is that thermometer supposed to help?
I mean, I know it offers a further indication of what's happening in the machine (and specifically the brew head, which will of course be lower in temperature from what the PID shows), but what's the point in knowing that the head is at 91.5 when the PID is at 94 if I already know that a certain type of coffee (for my taste) comes out well at 94?
Is there any specific reason to install that?
Cheers if you can read this or if you can enlighten me
