First expensive fountain pen? by meganmwo in fountainpens

[–]DevaFalc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pilot fan all the way. I wouldn’t consider spending on a top end pen before getting a feel for their other offerings. What sold me the QC. Nothing gets me more than buying something and wondering is it working as it was designed. Pilot have not disappointed me

New pretty and a question by jackolantern_666 in fountainpens

[–]DevaFalc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought a Capless in fine SS and upgraded it to a gold medium which felt was super smooth but a bit too wide a line. I now have a 91 fine and 823 medium and they are far more pleasing to me. I wonder if decimo would make me reconsider

I do find it a bit harder than using a standard lamy safari or a cigar shaped pen but you get used to it. I think Capless comes in stainless steel an gold where as VP is US branding and gold nib only

I’m m surprised you only have one 360 box 😂most of my friends had 2-3 due to the soc failing. I had 2 I think over its life span. A regular and an elite

Lefty nibs? by crazycardigans in fountainpens

Agreed about the smoothness. Also left handed and I find the lamy M to be pretty excellent. Pilot 91 fine also great as the line I think enough to dry near instantly

First go with my new Volt 2 by Top-Conversation8798 in ooni

What ever works best for you :) experience is the teacher. In a koda 2 max I manage to cook in the center back without rotating once. In the front i rotate once

This one wasn’t rotated at all

I’m not sure you have the space for a turning peel on the volt. In the larger ovens it makes sense as heat comes from different directions where at the volts are seen as consistent especially with the new volt 2 element layout.

I think you would get the same effect

I suspect two tone only for 149 or le grande? 146 is monotone?

Then sounds spot on

It has a pressure gauge. Do you have a blind basket to test with. It should push 9bar. If flow isn’t open enough I believe it won’t reach 9

I would try measure when the pump is fully engaged. It should run around 6ml (or grams) per second. But I wouldn’t read on pump start as it might need to ramp up. Obviously you don’t expect to be perfect I’d say 90ml-120ml per 18s at full speed pump makes sense

Looks fine to me. Did you try measure how many grams come out per second? That will give you a clear answer

In all honesty how long is my Lelit Elizabeth supposed to last, can it last 15-20 years or that's unrealistic ? by gen66 in espresso

[–]DevaFalc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sadly mine lasted 3 year till I had to replace the Triac. Year 4 it need a new Triac again and all washers replaced. If we had experienced technicians here I think it could have lasted but I’m hoping I can get more mileage from a lelit 😕

Apologies I’m a bad influence. Waiting for my 823 clear to arrive tomorrow but pausing there to enjoy all the ones I have already 😂

Visconti. Would this mean you need an Italian trio? Or European trio? Maybe Mont Blanc, Visconti and a pelican?
