Hi all,
I have a 2007 Giotto Premium which I bought second hand some time ago and it has been going strong for many years now! Issues started when the group wasn't releasing pressure after finishing a shot, so I pulled the group off... and now it's kinda snowballed haha
I'm rebuilding the group, replacing all the silicone piping and T piece, new pump and mounts, stripping the unit down and sandblasting the steel parts of the body and repainting them and then hopefully putting it all back together correctly.
My query is, is there anything else you would recommend upgrading/improving while I have it all open?
Anyway of smothering the noise of the pump?
The white powder at the end of the heating element doesn't look 'standard' :P The boiler is full right now though, so I'm not sure how to remove it without creating a mess! I would say if the upper sleeve had that much scale, the heating element probably is in pretty poor condition as well...
Cheers
Pete
