Hello! I've just measured water debit on an Aurelia II and got a flow rate of over 600g/30s.
Ideally I'd like to bring it down to 200-280g/30s.

I read that a standard gicleur for Aurelia II is a 0.5mm one, but how in the world would any pump running at 9bar create such a huge flow with that much restriction?

The manometer reads a maximum of 9bar of pressure at the pump, but maybe it's not working properly?
