Not a problem Robert just thought I'd ask.
I can't complain really as I've hammered it for the last 18 months and it was second hand when I bought it

Sorry the site and no one has been able to help.
I don't think that either element on my urn boiler would be replaceable, they seem to be welded in place.
I don't know what a T500's elements look like.

Tried that and there's very little info but I have a couple of things to try.

That does sound like a problem.
I am not going to search the site for you.
Try it yourself.
If someone has posted this problem, it will be here.

I'm having similar problems with my T500 it won't get any hotter than 50c, I'm thinking maybe on of the elements has gone?
Anyone ever replaced one?

I didn't like the tap being crooked either. Offends my sense of cosmic flatitude.

It looks like some serious tilting is required to get the last gallon out of that thing!

Forgive my high spirited flippancy.
Like many, I like to assume that I roam the tree-tops.
Sometimes I fall from the tree and smack every branch, on the way to the ground.
Glad that you have seemingly sorted your problem.

I so want to quote from "Star treckin' across the universe" but do not know if it will make 'needmorstuff' laugh or cry, so I won't.
Yes I will...

Just Muddying the waters here...
My home build still, with a double element,pre-welded under the inner boiler,does sometimes burn shit marks, if I run a cloudy brew.
Shit shots may count, cloudy strips are worth a wait for settling.
And that is a whole lot politer than I wanted to tap

Agree with Mash - the retailer is responsible for replacing your T500, it obviously sounds like it’s a faulty unit, it’s up to the retailer to claim under the warranty off the supplier.

They should replace yours, no questions.
