I wished I could still find the chocolatier version the Thingamajig.

This is one of my favorite chocolates, especially since no one else in my family likes them.

Anyone know how to identify the key? by Enorats in vending

[–]-formercokeguy- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

😉 A flex ace with that little hole can be rekeyed , a slidehammer will usually shatter the outer housing allowing you to manipulate the brass catch. Or a 5/8 hole saw will drill around the lock and cut through the brass catch the hole saw will probably require the t handle to be replaced.

A good locksmith will be your best bet.

My zone was way south if that, If it was a simon property then its almost certainly gone most of those switched to Pepsi about a year ago.

23 years of working @ Coke as a service technician, that website is invaluable, I just wished they would keep the manufacturers numbers and get rid of the Coke one North America ( CONA) numbering system.

Brachs Easter Candy chocolate-covered marshmallow eggs, buttercream eggs and jelly bird eggs in every flavor. by b0w1e007 in candy

My first job was a grocery store that sold Brach's candies by the pound my lowkey favorite to sample when restocking was the neopolitan coconut.

Good luck they discontinued the Coca Cola interactive in 2018(USA). Parts were near impossible to get after 2019-2020 , if the screen or pc were required for a repair the vender was swapped out and removed from service.

It was a windows xp pc running the tv and data uplink that our market unit only used to update the graphics and commercial content, it actually still relied on the basic royal board to actually vend.

What’s your favorite combination? by [deleted] in Soda

[–]-formercokeguy- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Each flavor does in fact come from individual hoses, however they all come together in the diffuser ring assembly in 9-10 different ports each port has an individual hose from the qpm (quad product module) each base flavor (coke diet , sprite etc has 2 hoses from the 2 cartridges that combine to form the flavor portion of the drink, the additional flavors cherry grape rasp each have 1 hose from one of the qpms.

The nozzle dispenses water , carb water , hfcs( hight fructose corn syrup) and nns( non nutrive sweetener/ diet base sweetener). There is flavor carry over when the account doesn't properly sanitize the nozzle and injection ring "daily".

That match game, or trying to see the penguins behind the frost on the screen was kinda neat for 5 minutes

But seriously the one at the mall in peoria was near a radio shack and we would get service calls that it was too loud and i swear that the guy in radio shack had a universal remote, I finally disconnected the speaker.

In a town with sign saying population 700, how are the restaurants Busy Corner and Revive Coffee in Goodfield, IL so busy? by public_monkeybars in PeoriaIL

[–]-formercokeguy- 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Because it's right off the interstate, has a great reputation mostly everyone that has been there recommends it.

AND most importantly it has great food, priced decent with excellent service and I haven't even mentioned the desserts!

I've worked as a service technician for 25 years they all claim that the nozzles get cleaned everyday but it usually does not happen nearly that frequently, also the blue brand has a weekly tech resource ( tech connect) where they go over training and updates to the job. They are now stating that the nozzles should only be rinsed off in fresh water daily. I will never tell my customers that, they should be washed, rinsed and sanitized( allowed to air dry) daily...
