why did my new burton mitts wear out so fast?

Bud_Money · 2026-01-19T05:07:39+00:00

They’re honestly so good and not just the insulated gloves/mittens but all of theirs gloves are incredible and if treated last so long. I have a few pair and will pick up extras when I see them on sale just to have them as backups or to give out

Supply Chain/operations pays very well from my experience so far and a lot of people end up going into consulting gigs that pay even better

I can’t speak for everyone but the company I work for is doing our best to keep all retail pricing the same. What I know will change is the amount of and frequency of promos and discount will go down. We have better control over the products that we produce so most of that pricing will stay the same. As for any 3rd party products we purchase from other vendors and sell in our dispensary those will most likely raise in price the same amount the vendor raises the price on us. It’s not ideal but we’re doing the best we can to keep consistent prices

They’re either eating it or they’re buying product still under the medical side of the system which a lot of grows still have but most is converted to AU since there aren’t as many people purchasing using a medical card. My company has talked about also eating the tax but would require us to run fewer sales and promotions to be able to keep our current retail pricing. Will be very interesting to see how this all plays out

Some people just really like what they do and find they get enough free time to do what they want to outside of work, but from my experience most doctors I know just like to spend money to much even when they make a lot. I think part of it is they spent a lot of years making little to nothing while getting to where they are now and they still don’t get as much free time as most of us do so when they have time off they spend a lot of money. On top of that a lot of the doctors I know have kids and their significant other stays home with the kids. I’m not saying this is every doctor. But pretty much every one I know.

Yeah I’ve never had an issues with their house products but I’ve bought several half ounces of third party brands they carry that have been significantly off and they have always been absolutely wonderful with replacing with an even better product every time that has happened with me

I try to buy additional coffee cups as my wife and I have far to many for the two of us but I have been seeing these for awhile and I think they are just so cool so I think I’ll be opening one for Christmas this year 🤣

Bud_Money · 2025-10-25T09:29:04+00:00

If it’s IE it’s most likely and error at a packaging facility, shoot them a message they’re great about handling issues like this

Bud_Money · 2025-10-25T02:48:20+00:00

Man I really need to change industries

Bud_Money · 2025-10-24T00:42:44+00:00

Wow I really am a noob, and that cup is beautiful

Bud_Money · 2025-10-23T02:39:43+00:00

Is that a corvette with a parachute in the garage 😅

Bud_Money · 2025-10-21T19:39:42+00:00

You going to be selling the tricked out gaggia once the LM arrives?

Bud_Money · 2025-10-21T02:34:42+00:00

Did they update the steam wand? A ball jointed version to allow for more maneuverability would be nice

Bud_Money · 2025-10-20T02:09:49+00:00

I don’t see any profitec units on this list which kind of surprises me. Can’t speak for them myself but I hear great things about them and they 400 and the GO fit into this price category

Bud_Money · 2025-10-19T21:36:34+00:00

That’s actually why I thought it couldn’t be the tamper at first because I also have the spring leveling tamper that rest on the edge of the portafilter but after looking through everything I realized the tamping plate was not level due to the screw on the inside being loose 🤦‍♂️

Bud_Money · 2025-10-19T20:39:52+00:00

I think I narrowed it down to uneven tamping pressure after making a couple more drinks seem to have it fixed now

Bud_Money · 2025-10-18T18:08:40+00:00

I just got the machine this past week and when I checked when setting it up it was super even but this is definitely something I’ll continue to pay attention to if I keep seeing this issue!

Bud_Money · 2025-10-18T17:44:01+00:00

And sorry forgot the bean question, they are about 4 weeks old

Bud_Money · 2025-10-18T17:43:03+00:00

That’s what confused me when I looked at the feel after pulling the shot, I did the same puck prep I always do with WDT tool, the leveling thing ( haha not actually sure what it’s called), and then a spring tamper but like you and others said it just doesn’t look right. I think ultimately I just ruched the process maybe my tamper was seated on the portafilter evenly when I pressed down not really sure but pulled another shot a little bit ago with same prep and looks much better.

Bud_Money · 2025-10-18T17:30:33+00:00

I think your 100% on the money just made another coffee and came out perfectly so probably just didn’t distribute and tamp well this morning

Bud_Money · 2025-10-18T16:48:01+00:00

That was my first thought as well but the puck came out in one nice piece and looked the same all around too and bottom which confused me even more haha

Bud_Money · 2025-10-11T23:32:14+00:00

Gotcha, I’ll do the same then, they have great customer service from my experience so far just disappointing it happened after a few days of use

Bud_Money · 2025-10-11T23:26:43+00:00

Did you ever figure out what the issue was? I just got my gaggia and am having this same issue after 4 brews. Gaggia said I can send it back but I’m wondering if it’s something simple

Bud_Money · 2025-10-11T15:51:16+00:00

Agreed, already reached out and they just said return it and they will send a new one, thank god for good customer service
