Hi Rich,

Glad you joined us, hope you like it.

There is no such thing as a silly question.

Saw the pictures of your Bok in the other thread, its looking good.

Have the bits for your controller turned up yet?

Hi Brian...

No, im patiently waiting still. The advice from the store did say 7-14 days so its just coming up to 7 days.
In the meantime, ive been doing other mods such as bypassing the temp control to stop it switching at "nearly compete" temps...(i found the boiler was turning off at 90ish degrees column temp)...so thats sorted by a simple rewire/bypass....
Ive done a full reclean with new white vinegar then alcohol run yesterday in the hope of banishing this green distillate thing lol...(i think that was my fault been to eager with an uncleared wash....
ill get some more pics up now i know how to do them....its such a pleasing bit of kit...im just refining things at the moment..
