  • Getting better shots with group thermometer

    I also got flow control on my big Mechanika iv and decided to remove the E61 group gauge and install a thermometer and now i can see whats going on with the temps.
    I can get better and tasty shots now with a constant temperature for every shot. Still using the flow control as usual but focus on temps.
    Any of you installed a thermometer guage into the group head.

    I have a thermometer on my ECM Mechanika V Slim. It is a great, I pull a precise cooling shot at hit the perfect temp zone to pull shots. I run the brew pressure to 4 bar and let the puck preinfuse then pull the shot, letting it run out with the lever in the intermediate position. Works very well.
