PURGE MAX-PARAMETER

Purge maxis the length in time that is needed to purge out the condensation water from the hoses when they are full with condensation water. This parameter is determined by the “Max condensation from boiler”- and “Length hose to boiler”-parameter. 

Perfect Moose will purge out the condensation water from the hoses before it start a steaming-cycle, this happens while the steam wand is moving downwards.


Perfect Moose will also calculate the length in time needed to purge out the collected condensation water, depending on the amount of condensation water collected in the hoses. 

  • When Perfect Moose hasn't been used for longer then 10minutes a lot of condensation water will be present in the hoses, then it will need to purge for the maximum length in time (=Purge max) before starting the next steaming-cycle. The steam wand will move slowly downwards before the steam-cycle starts.
  • When Perfect Moose just has done a steaming-cycle and starts a new steaming-cycle, then there will only be a small amount of condensation water collected in the hoses. Therefor Perfect Moose will have a shorter purge time. The steam wand will move faster downwards, because there was less condensation water collected in the hoses.


Less cooling down time = less condensation water = faster functioning of the Perfect Moose



  • "Max condensation from boiler"-parameter is the maximum quantity of water accumulated between the steam boiler of the espresso machine and the connection point on the Perfect Moose. (Red tube in the drawings below) 
    This can be measured by flushing and weighing the condensation water from the internal connection. The parameter of maximum condensation can also be taken from the table below by checking the length and diameter of the tube in red.

  • "Length hose to boiler"-parameter is the exact length of steam connection hose in mm between the espresso machine and the Perfect Moose. (Green tube in the drawings above). The steam connection hose length is 1.5 m, which is the maximum length. (=59inches = 4ft 11inches) Cut this hose as short as possible, this will result in less condensation water collection.


Shorter steam connection hose = less condensation water = faster functioning of the Perfect Moose

  • "Purge max calculated value"-parameter will be calculated automatically once you saved the “Max condensation from boiler”- and “Length hose to boiler”-parameters by clicking the floppy disc icon.


FIRST START FEATURES

  • The "Flush"-feature gives the option between an automatic or a manual flush after a steaming cycle.
  • The "Cold skip"-feature gives the option to overrule the error when the liquid is too warm (depending on recipe) to start a steaming-cycle. 
    • When the "Cold skip"-feature is set to YES, it gives the option to overrule the maximum allowed starting temperature of the liquid. 
    • When the "Cold skip"-feature is set to NO, the Perfect Moose won't give the option start a steaming-cycle when the starting temperature of the  is above the maximum allowed temperature.
  • The "Link recipe by user"-feature gives the option to adjust the texture and temperature of the frothed mi*lk.
