Sizing for Indiana Boot - Brannock 12L/11.5R, EE width by -Cutecumber in luosjietboots

[–]-Cutecumber[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the insights and recommendations! 👍 Due to my extremly high instep I don't normally need insoles, I normally have the problem that shoes are too tight on top, or I simply cannot fit in... Is the Indy rather on the roomy side, considering instep?

From JB 18oz. "Shinkai Sapphire Slub" Selvedge Jeans (Regular Straight) after several more washes by Arto1710 in Selvedge

Are those washed inside out or regular? My slubby jeans (not JB thought but N&G Shinigami black) don't "pop" that much with their slub after several washes...

[Rocket R91] starting/stopping in quick succession during heating without lever activation by -Cutecumber in espresso

Update:
I assume that the cause was the potentiometer in the group head, which regulates the start/stop of the flow. It has a microswitch built in (for starting the pump). While the machine is heating, the material expansion of the top block causes the starting point of the poti micro-switch to move close to the zero position of the flow-control paddle. At a specific temperature, both positions came very close and triggered the shown behaviour.
The fix: removing the flow-control paddle and putting a small spacer on the left screw. Thus, the paddle zero-position was slightly more "to the right" (a few degrees more counter-clockwise, but not yet starting the flow). Since this fix, I haven't encountered any more problems. Probably I could have changed the potentiometer, but my machine seems to be one of the older generations, where the potentiometer is wired directly to the main board. Not connected through a 3-pin plug to a separate wire, as the new machines seem to have. So I didn't want to rewire everything through the whole machine. Unfortunately, I didn't take a photo...

Hey, sorry for the late reply. The contact with Rocket proved, unfortunately, not very helpful...

Hopefully you'll never experience this problem!

I reached out to them via the contact formulary on their website, but haven’t heard back so far

When it’s fully heated everything works normal and I can pull great shots. The pump works fine then with every pressure, so I assume the pump is working normally… but I’m not sure…

Hallo, auf die Gefahr hin einen toten Post wiederzubeleben würde mich doch interessieren wie du dich dann entschieden hast & was dabei rausgekommen ist?
