good job fixing the issue!! For folks who want to drive more fans out of the 12V output from the board, I took a look at the specs of the small mosfet driving this output fiew weeks ago, I posted info on previous pages, around 31-32. the max current output for those is around 200mA, if i can...

This chip looks like driving 3 mosfet, so it is an output chip, probably driving valves or something else, unlikly to cause your software issue

It is important to cut the wire till you find a unaffected by heat section. Please read conversations Harkin and I had a month ago, maybe around page 30, I explain everything about this mod. Nice to see Brewie are putting fans on new machine, this is the only way to keep terminals above maximum...

Good job for the fan upgrade. I brew 2 batches this WE leaving the thermocouple I used at first for making the graph of terminal temp VS water temp. At full boill, so water at 100c and heater at maximum, terminals temperature never reached over 80Celcius, so well bellow the 105c max as the...

When doing the thermal test with the fan and the thermocouple, my goal was to cool the area and not trowing too much heat in the Brewie. the raison of the insulating blanket it probably to help boilling and also to protect from the heat the electronic in the middle of the 2 tank. there is...

It will surely help a little to have less curent running thru the elements connections, that was my guess on one of my first post on this forum, but after further investigation and some monitoring, I realised that the resistive heating of the terminals wasn't the real problem (it is probably...

Lol, nope, I would not built a beer making machine since I bough it to brew for me. I joint the forum for this element issue. If this pic can't convince you, nothing I can do. I'm a technical person, working for 18 years in a buisness who built sofisticated equipment for the heavy steel...

I'm 100% certain Brewie will solve this issue, had a chat with Maté and he is aware of all this and also about the test I did. I'm convinced Brewie is there to stay and this issue will be fixe on new machine for sure

or maybe not the right thread ;-)

I did 6 brews with it and I did only short clean after and before brew. I disscued on a post with Harkin of this dirty hose and he told me he do the satitizing clean along with Oxyclean, that should do the job since those deposit require heat, emollient and oxydation. I also plan to unplug every...

Thoses valves are not realy valves, it's a RC servo motor who pinch a silicone tubing. I would say it's a pretty good idea, easy to clean and simple, no contact with the fluid. At first when I opened the machine I did a quick check at the valve system, and I noticed 2 dishwasher like water valve...

What you say is thru, those day our expectation of a product are high, and I am ok with that most of the time, when you pay 40k$ for a car you expect it to perform as expected and it to be reliable as much as possible. In brewie case I would say it's a little different. When I procede the order...

That's nice boilling! Happy my knowledge had helped fiew of you guys. your basket hack is realy nice, I might built one since I'm in canada. Thanks for sharing. don't forget to replace your thermal switch ;-) About brewie in general, I'm realy pleased with the machine. The element issue will...

Mate just answer back, looks like I didn't see his mail of the dec 20th, so my fault, Brewie answered in time.

Marcel reply to me after a direct email (no answer from the ticket system on their web site) I asked for parts and will wait for it, meantime I replaced burned parts with third party parts, since it's a prety simple machine to maintain. I'm not affraid about this warrenty issue, as we will all...
