Considering that in this way the boiling temperature is lower than it should, and I'm running with just water, this could be cause of steam and indirectly air inside the circuit?
Didn't realise you can get 1.1 caps, yes 1.1 would boil at 102C.

1.4 would be something like 109/110C

With no thermostat though, it seems unlikely that boiling is a problem.
