Brian Driscoll says:

What is the final HX boiler from? Rocket?

Seattle Coffee Gear says:

Yes it does 🙂 – Kat

Per Zangenberg says:

“therm… them… therm…” ;P Fun while learing as allways 😀

baominghacker says:

nice! It would be quite dramatic if use one of those 16L steam boilers as
the final comparison. Then that would be like nahh nahh nahh HOLY WOW!

Brian Driscoll says:

Thanks Kat.

Seattle Coffee Gear says:

hahaha – totally. – Kat

Seattle Coffee Gear says:

Thermoblocks work a bit differently so as long as you are priming and
performing that function, you should be fine. – Kat

Sewcoolwash says:

my dolce gusto has a thermoblock 🙂

Seattle Coffee Gear says:

No leering allowed! 😉 Glad you enjoyed it 😀 – Kat

JD Harding says:

I got an Ascaso Pro (from SeattleCoffeeGear) and now I know what the boiler
looks like. ^_^

Seattle Coffee Gear says:

I’m not sure — I think so, but am not positive. The repair guys have it in
the Service Writer office as ‘art’ 😉 – Kat

Seattle Coffee Gear says:

Yay for Innards! 😀 – Kat

Martín Alejandro Gomez says:

Another great video, thank both of you! BTW, how do you take care so your
boiler doesn’t blow up by lack of water? I mean, in a super auto, when it’s
“Water Priming” because the water tank was out for some time or something
and it’s making the sound of the pump going through AIR, is that damaging
the boiler / pump for a little while?

Seattle Coffee Gear says:

Nah — I just play it on YouTube 😉 – Kat
