Any possibility that the Yorkshire spring water you use is especially corrosive? Does the element have a sacrificial anode?


I was wondering what the skull-and-crossbones on the bottle means. Isn't green crema normal?

Just received an encouraging email from Federica at ponte-vecchio@libero.it They think it's most likely a rogue batch of elements at their UK agent. Further installments to follow, if interesting enough...
