I have a 505 also I love it and use it every day. I have had it for 10 years and the only problem I have had is it did not come with a shear pin and I use a penny I cut to fit bit it only lasts about a year. Otherwise it's a great conversation piece and my friends think I'm crazy 🤣
Very nice! I have one of these as well however, mine is hobart brand and when you turn it on all it does is hum. It's very old and I'm sure needs repairs. It's just used as a conversation piece.
You probably can't tell the difference because you are drinking such a dark roast. French roast has a smoky finish and is almost as dark as Italian roast. The snobs tend to choose light roasts for flavor notes and caffeine content. Thanks for sharing your antique.

Sounds like a loose or broken connection. Could be an easy fix if you open it up you can spot the issue with your eye.
