well all my bits finally arrived on the china slow boat.
The only thing that I have ditheried about and i still am, is how to attach the k type temperture sensor, I have took the cover and thermostat out of my gaggia(just to look and see not fitting this proper till the weekend) I could not get a cheap thermocouple to fit the thread were the original gaggia thermostat goes, Now there is a couple of options here on what I can do, get a 4mm bolt cut the weld off the sensor and feed through 1mm hole on bolt, surface mount it or take out boiler and turn the 4mm threaded hole into a 6mm threaded hole.
Last one seems the best solution though could also leave me with a major problem if the sensor fails, Anyone else have any ideas. Or a link to a sensor with a 4mm threaded sheath.
