IMEX CR-100 roaster

Repairing a ULKA vibratory pump
Well, the correction: I was probably wrong. The point is that another pump in my "reference" machine is 54W while this one is 48 (different letter indexes). It pump the water slowly, but makes those 12 or more Bars. Not sure now, if I just need 9 Bar for proper brewing or 9bar and pumped promptly
