AA PC - Vent pipe leaking ?
    #22186687 - 09/04/15 07:39 AM (8 years, 4 months ago)

Hi folks !

I'm testing this new AA 921 and something doesn't seem normal. First time using it so maybe after a couple runs it will do better.

I made a video so you can see. At first it is during pressure build up. At 15s pressure has been reached for a while.



When the pressure is building up, water and steam leaks out of the vent pipe, although the weight is on.

Then when pressure is reached, steam escapes in a steady stream and the weight doesn't want to jiggle. Unless I crank the heat a little but then it jiggles constantly.

Is this steam escaping and water dropping normal ?
Or should the weight be quiet and not letting anything pass between jiggles ?

Thx

sounds normal to me.
You should check out the thread on modifying the PC to a sterilizer using a new vent designed for the aa sterilizer.  Check page 2 in the forum.
It reaches higher temps, quiet and your water won't run out.

That looks relatively normal. Also, why are you only
running it at 10 psi? That's what those numbers mean
on the weight.

Thanks guys !

I've seen that yes, I'll check it again Midmar ^^

I don't know I just picked the middle the number so I didn't have to wait too long.

Totally normal with any weighted pc. Steam is escaping, it cools when it hits the weight, turns back to water, drips out, and boils again. Totally normal. Buy the 18$ vent and and tap to clean up the threads and install it. You will be very happy.
You will be able to cook on a lower stove setting. You will save energy, you will lower your carbon footprint, greenhouse gases and save the planet. You want to save the planet don't you? Do the upgrade and save the planet. What type of animal doesn't want to save the planet, neh, the universe.

Stop experimenting half way through your first grow. Grow it to maturity, watch it, learn from it. Do this a few times then experiment with different ideas and figure out what works best for you.
