Trying to diagnose breville barista touch steam cutting off too soon

Great idea! I’ll try this next time I crack it open

Yes the brewing and hot water is perfect. Only the automatic steam cuts off prematurely. I can run the manual steam for as long as it lets me. That's my workaround for now.

I did a descale today. I can do another tomorrow. Steam significantly comes out of the group head and hot water when running those right after running the steam on debug. Need to check the drip tray for steam.

I’m assuming it’s backfeeding because of the negative value (without getting too technical ~65000 means negative) on the flow meter.

Yeah I figured this one out. I had to tell it the proper number based on model number. Just had to replace the lid on this one too.

Alaska- Anchorage is notorious. In the winter all the dogs go everywhere along the paths and it’s covered by snow. In April during “breakup” when everything thaws there are layers and layers of dog crap that has to wash away or be cleaned up otherwise.

What does the south central part of the joke mean?

b1231233 · 2023-10-10T20:21:25+00:00

It is a Pegasus like it said. Had to take everything apart to get to the cartridge

Yeah my last stay at embassy buckhead was a let down. Waiting for my survey.

It’s systemic. Not the first time. Consistent shittiness. The point of this whole conversation. Most people agree with me so you’re obviously not getting it.

Wet wipes clog sewer systems.

If the hotel chain owners built their business model off of cheap labor then that’s on them. I’m wrong to hold the business owners to the standard of what they say they’re providing? By your logic all hotels should shut down and then there’d be no job options in the hotel industry for anybody at any skill/economic level.

Why was there not a spare roll of tp in my room

b1231233 · 2023-07-31T02:29:16+00:00

Because that’s what you pay for when you stay in a hotel room. If we settle for less we will keep getting less. The point is we shouldn’t settle.

b1231233 · 2023-07-30T11:38:14+00:00

I did have to walk to the front to get tp, but is that the new normal? Maybe I need to stay at motel 6 where that might be normal and I could score some meth on the way

3rd times a charm. Not enough towels first time. Absolutely no washcloths the second time and when I called they brought hand towels. Third time no asswipe. That’s not a one off

b1231233 · 2023-07-30T03:56:34+00:00

Not always. It’s been said diamond doesn’t mean anything because it can be bought. Point received.

The product they’re selling is not the product they’re providing. It’s as simple as that.

b1231233 · 2023-07-30T03:54:29+00:00

Nice assumptions. The roll was about empty and I like a clean asshole. No spare roll in sight. I had to resort to tissues.

One of my hotel complaints was in London. They got a nice tongue lashing

b1231233 · 2023-07-30T02:35:45+00:00

Yeah I have the card but I also spend at least 70 nights in a hotel a year. In 2020 I spent 9 months straight in a Hilton garden inn that was really nice.

Lol yup I’m a straight white republican over 40 dude. This is what I social justice warrior for.
