One thing I noted. The part that typically clogs up it right when it goes into the heater. There is a little metal plug (not really a plug since it has a hole in it) most probably to create back pressure or to limit the amount of water goes to the heater. it has a small hole that gets plugged. I was able to push a thin metal rod through it to remove the clog on mine. After that it worked great. However I have had a couple repeated heat cycles that did not reach brew temp. That doing back to back cleans with Hot water in the keg remedied. This typically happens after not using the picobrew for a couple of months. so I think as the tubes dry out some funk hardens and then get pushed through and clogs. I have taken to doing repeated cleans after a brew until the cleaning water comes out with no particles and then I do one more. I recently moved and have not got my brew room setup back up for going on 5 months. Hopefully I do not run into problems my next brew
