The received product is complete except the manual as expected no major defect in appearance everything seems functional.
The shooter seems to run the fan, the lights come on and the temperature setting works.
I congratulate immediately the highly effective service contact ( [email protected] ) Address found here in the comments. In 48 hours I received a manual in the mail. Faced with excessive foam problem such rapid response service that sends me two new connectors.
The big downside is that my pump is unable to maintain the desired temperature was certainly a defect in my model.
A long press the temperature setting button will display within seconds the temperature read by the probe on the barrel. My printer has never fallen below 17 ° C.
So I return the item. Obviously with a beer is 17 ° forcing it foam
In addition to cooling failure I will now compare this to the printer Seb B70 I just received and which seems to give me satisfaction
More cumbersome it is nevertheless rather pretty but plastic is more cheap than Seb B70 (though not renowned for its top quality finishing)
No noisy fan noise is the same level that the SEB B70.
Installation was simple and practical. Rinse very easy draw system provided with the bottle. The BeerTender fittings serve you anything.
Basic no other connectors Beertender so anyway to start only compatible printer beertendeur.
The plastic pipe end protruding from the tip of the printer does not upscale ...
Regarding cooling, from my point of view even if my model is a problem it is clear that the cooling efficiency is not worth that of SEB B70. The compartment was not isolated only a very thin plastic door. The cooling plate is just in contact with the bottom of the drum.
SEB on the B70 was the compartment is isolated (thick wall) compartment is formed from a metal bowl shape of the barrel connected to Peltier system. The cooling result will be necessarily more efficient in terms of power consumption. And especially more effective in a short while high room temperature.
BRIEF: I do not recommend this model despite possible versatility via CO2 kit (79 !!!) remains far too expensive in relation to its manufacturing quality and especially a poorly thought cooling system. Qualify this printer SEMI PRO is mine exaggerated perspective.
