Just a quick one. Why is the 2nd plate overloading and the rest aren't. I have no power controller just using 1 2400w element.

Vapour lock maybe.
Try turning your boiler off then on again.

Looks like your running it to fast to me. Too much power or as it’s rum reflux it a little more as it’s puking

Looks a bit like puke. Turn the element off for 10 minutes and back on again.

Maybe you've got your plate tee sections mixed up? Have you got your bottom section as the second plate by accident and it's puking out of order? :laughing-rolling:

Sorry. Couldnt resist.
