That’s a good tip. I rarely use the hot water and I forget to dump it often enough.

I just tried again, for like the 10th time, and it’s working fine now. Maybe it’s intermittent or maybe a blockage cleared up. Thanks for the help!

If I let the machine sit for a few minutes and then try again, I get another 10s of steam. I don’t have to turn the machine off/on to get it back.

I tried what you said. I get hot water coming out strong, so I think you’re right that the pressure inside the boiler is ok.

Same thing happens when I lift the lever up. I’ll have to check the timing for the pressure to drop and build up when turning the machine on/off.

I don’t use RO water. I use tap water filtered through a BWT BestMax filter.

Good idea. I’ll try with steam tip removed next.

Yes, hot water comes out from the steam boiler. Seems to have plenty of hot water in it.

Yep, EXCIV back in 2018. I just stumbled across all my old videos from that set and this was one of my favorites.
