Pico C Deep Clean #211

Closed Intecpsp closed 3 years ago

Intecpsp commented 3 years ago

I'm trying to run a deep clean on my Pico C right now and it keeps erroring out because the water is not circulating through the hoses. I tested "Drain Step Filter" and I can get the water flowing, but going back to the Deep Clean results in the water not flowing again.

EDIT: To add to this, I'm not sure whether this server is sending instructions for deep clean, or if those are stored on-board.

This has nothing to do with the server .. try running it with the real pico brew.. also please try this first before posting an issue or post on the Facebook user group

TIL that the Pico C uses the OUT hose to PULL water from the IN hose and the Pico Pro uses both pumps individually to PUSH and PULL respectively. That is why the instructions have you connect the hoses together on a C, but connect a keg for the Pro.

Background: I have Pico Pro hoses on my Pico C, so I tried following the Pro deep clean instructions.

My initial thought was that this server was feeding the device instructions for the clean like it does brews. That's why I posted here in the hopes that a tweak could be made to the instructions.
