Hello ...

I just feel confuse with some information in the internet regarding to VB Domobar Super's boiler capacity, coz some says it is 1.8L but the other says 2.7L. Hmmm which one is the right?

Or it might be differ between VB Domobar Super (manual lever, HX) with VB Domobar Upgrade (manual lever, HX) that has Rotary pump instead vibratory pump ?

Thank you .....

It's also 2.7l by volume calculated from diameter and length

I questioned VBM while doing the buyers guide and 2.7 is what was given to me. That was directly from Italy although I have not measured the diameter/height to calculate the cylinder volume.

I will call them tomorrow
but I'm almost 100% that the 2,7 is correct including the heating exchanger liquid/volume
