If anyone is listening…. Okay.. I think I can get the T piece from an auto store… The switch is in the catalogue of a coffee machine parts supplier, as is a pstat tube and pstat.. nobody has eveything, but those bits are available.. on the pstat, what is a safe working pressure for the boiler…? Connecting the pstat tube to the T piece is another matter.. maybe the auto store…….
lol i wish i saw this method before I tried to remove the stupid plastic sleeve out of my brand new machine with the tool using only hand pressure. ended up chipping the plastic notches and having to break out the sleeve with a chisel to replace with the metal piece
Saw your videos po sa Coffee Home Brewers group. Grabe solid! I'm new to espresso po and really fascinated sa mga antique espresso machines especially sa mga lever ones. Makes me wonder if seller kayo dahil sa dami or sadyang matinik na collector lang talaga 😍
Hello Bong and thx for this great video. Could you please explain why there must be clesrence of 0.5 to 0.8 between the piston and the shower screen? Don't you limit the maximum amount of water that could be pushed through the puck this way? I know it's only a small amount but why not make the piston touch the shower screen ever so slightly?
Just a safety clearance so that the piston will not push down the shower screen out. This space (0.5mm) will sacrifice about 0.75ml on output which is almost negligible.
We don't need to do this every day. Molykote 111 has high resistance to water washout. We can relube easily by removing the screen and qith lever up we can lube the chamber inside wall.
@@rueljuachon4374 thanks for the reply! I just got a pressure gauge but my spout is extremely tight. I'm going to take it to the lab tomorrow and try the bunsen burner. I see it's about 1000 C cooler than your blow torch.
I was looking at an alternate drip head prototype initiated by Coffeehaus several months ago. I do not own a MM, but have considered purchasing one many times. Here's a link to their solution to the stock MM's water distribution problem... ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-MMUVouP62mc.html
Yes. I saw that. As for my observation. Gabi Master B dripper gives an even and more distributed drips regardless of pulsating /irregular drips from arm.
