are they using zip ties instead of clamps ?hughbert said:anyone else had issues with leaks on the pump output? Had to remove those and stick a tie on a bit tighter.
I have put a hose clamp on now, however you can't put the pump cover back on with a clamp or even a bigger cable tie as it needs a bit of clearance to get up under the black plastic to close.Maheel said:are they using zip ties instead of clamps ?
is it so no one tightens up a clamp and busts a pump nipple ?
Yep, assembled mine today and ran a cleaning cycle, noticed a steady drip out of the bottom of the pump cover. Took it apart to see it was coming from exactly where you're highlighting.hughbert said:anyone else had issues with leaks on the pump output? Had to remove those and stick a tie on a bit tighter.
I leave the pipe on and direct it to the walls (of the gf not the kitchen) and clean themcarniebrew said:Couple of questions after putting mine together and running a cleaning cycle (and reading 11 pages of this thread!):
1. The pump filter that pushes into the pump inlet seems a bit loose...I've fiddled around with it but I reckon it'll get knocked out really easily during the boil. Anyone having the same issue?
I've had no probs with this
2. Once I'm through the supplied cleaning liquid, I'll start using home-made PBW (70% perc/30% met). Just curious how much PBW people are using in the 7.5 litres of cleaning water? Tablespoon or so?
I just use Aldi napisan and make sure I rinse well
3. Is anyone putting the mash pipe back into the boiler during the cleaning cycle, or just cleaning it separately?
Thanks, but I meant the inner basket rather than the recirc pipe.meathead said:I leave the pipe on and direct it to the walls (of the gf not the kitchen) and clean them
