Hi Guys
Have a strange problem with my Gene Cafe and am looking for some advice/suggestions.
My Gene Cafe will not go above 229c.
I can set the temp for 240c but the system will switch of the element when it reaches 229c and then switch on again when it get to 227. There is an audible click of the solenoid switching the element off and if you look in the drum you can see that the element is no longer glowing red. It does not make any difference whether I have beans in the machine or not. I have done about 300 roasts on the machine and it used to heat up to 240c no problem. I am not sure when it stopped exactly but have my suspicion that it was recently when I had to open the machine up to sort out a problem with one of the gears and may have knocked something.
Anybody got any suggestions, is there another setting on the pcb or something that I am perhaps missing?
Regards
JohnB
