Someone wanted to know where to buy reasonably priced parts to build their own coffee roaster. Convection oven top: * eBay - http://tinyurl.com/6q7pfo *...
The UFO/TO article is mine - and that same roaster from 2.5 years ago is still going strong. I roast about once a week, all year round! The UFO/TO will roast...
I'm using the UFO/CO roaster now too, David. I retired the Stir Crazy bottom part because it had problems stirring a pound of green beans. I just roasted a...
Hey folks. Check out this video I found online this morning. http://snipurl.com/this_is_coffee Rather fascinating view of how one would/should have made...
Tempting, but I think that won't solve my current dilemma. I need an electric drip maker -- quick. I already posted all my whiny issues over at the Gaggia...
All I want for Christmas is to get one of my Bunn ES-1A machines working. That's not asking for much, is it? One will be pretty simple - it was working before...
Here is a used es-1a on craigslist in NC for anyone looking it is 250.00 http://tinyurl.com/a4mt8n Also The makers of Bunn have starting importing the newer...

Yes I did not intend to be calous about it. When I talked to Larry at Quality espresso he said that Don was diagnosed with cancer last spring and passed in...

The pump relay on the printed circuit board is BAD. It is not the wiring unless some one placed an inline fuse in the wiring (usually the neutral side). You...
Thanks Paul! It turned out to be as simple as a blown 5 amp fuse on the logic board. I'd have sworn we checked that when we first pulled the top off of the...
Cool! It is good that it is a fuse. Your previous correspondence had excluded that potential problem. Use a slow burn fuse. It will be able to handle the...
From what I see the fuse is for the printed circuit board only. It may protect against small spikes, but only so far as the relays opening & closing. I'll pick...
The pump, controls, metering (flow) are separate from the heating circuit. You are correct. The circuits are independent. The two circuits do draw from the...
Robert - This is fantastic! Sounds like your old/new Bunn will be making coffee once again in the relatively-near future! Paul - thanks for your knowledge -...
... David, I would've sworn that we removed the brain-box lid & checked that fuse? I think what I'll do is take the nicer panels from the new/old machine and...
Robert, If I recall correctly, we popped the top off of the brain box & figured out where the fuse was located, but it seemed rather integrated & sealed away...
Well, I've got the boiler soaking in a *strong* citric acid solution. The tubing doesn't look *too* calcified so I won't pull all of it for a soaking. The HX...
Last step before reassembling the New/Old machine - remove the group, pull the jet, soak the parts in either detergent or citric acid solution, make sure the...
I am thinking about going to look at the machine listed here from Craigslist. Anyone have any advice on what to look for. I remember from previous posts that...
