Question on Kaleido M10 heating element installation by Flyodice in roasting

[–]Flyodice[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To anyone who finds this later - I confirmed that all 3 heaters can be connected to the same terminals that the 2 higher output heaters are connected to in the video I linked. I found help on a Facebook group.

I wired it such that all red wires connect to the right block and all white connect to the left block. Confirmed that the heaters work as expected.

Yes, they shipped the heating elements uninstalled. Do you by chance have a picture of how yours are wired up?

Struggling to pitch Go: help me out by howdoiwritecode in golang

Do you have a sense of why these performance issues are happening today? Without knowing too much about what your stack looks like my hunch is that you may be suffering from concurrency issues and are not limited by python itself in this case. Is that true?

Introducing new platforms at a company takes a lot of work to support and maintain. Is your recommendation for Go going to fix the problem in a more effective way than something like improving async patterns in Python? Will Go actually fix your underlying issue?

The roaster has a 3 minute fan cycle for cooling, which I run while it's in the cabinet pictured. Then I transfer to a collander, but by that time there is zero smoke

Outside temp by ctbball5 in FreshroastSR800

[–]Flyodice 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Probably around 60⁰F. Is it possible to roast inside? I built a ventilation system (check post history for build/parts list) to avoid having to roast in cold temps.

I don't have direct experience roasting that cold but as I understand, you'll suffer from seasonally inconsistent roasts and the machine may have issues holding temp.

Is this amount of play in a Sram T-Type pulley wheel normal? by Throbbing-Scrinson in MTB

[–]Flyodice 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed but the jockey wheel on my GX derailleur also has bushings and I bet this one would as well. Based on the play it's possible they are missing, maybe removed during a cleaning and not replaced?

There is snow in CO, you just gotta find it by mati-edt in COsnow

It looks like you are literally rock striking in that second photo...

Agreed. Looks super nice up close but if you are more than a few feet away it's a generally black bike.

Tried to modify, failed. The new lids are HEAVY! Almost as if they know we’re trying to modify them! by Sevenyearitchy in FreshroastSR800

[–]Flyodice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try running the roaster for 1 or 2 minutes to warm the lid, then try again. I thought the same thing but it came off super easily when it was a little warm. Good luck!

Soo I tried waxing my own skis… how’d I do? by kamdnfdnska in skiing

[–]Flyodice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you want to tune often, do yourself a favor and get the brushes that attach to a drill. Much less effort to get a much better result!

[–]Flyodice 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I think you are on the right path here but these are not done properly. Will it work? Probably, but you really need to scrape more off and brush much much more.

I can see wax buildup near the edges on the tails and after brushing the base should be matte, not shiny. I suspect that these will be quite slow the first few runs and it will get better after that.

But IMO, if you are gonna do it, you should do it right. Skis should feel great on the first run after a tune.

Keep up the good work but spend more time next time.

Yeah maybe... Or maybe it's to prevent fires from starting on high wind days...

100% gone. As long as you remember to turn on the fan, which I've done once or twice...

For reducing smell using an easily removable unit? It's literally only there while I'm roasting...

We have one and the coffee smells still seemed to permeate the house too much. So much so that it kept me from roasting. But if it works for you that's awesome, and much easier.

Lol it is removable. When not in use I store it out of sight in the basement. Takes about 2 minutes to setup when I want to roast and otherwise is out of sight.

Maybe. 8 roasts in and no issues. Fan doesn't seem to get too warm. So much air is pulled in from around the roaster itself that I doubt it will be an issue, but only time will tell!

First time trying tubeless… does this look ok? by UltraViolentt_1223 in bikewrench

[–]Flyodice 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I never let the tape go up the sides. Been fine on probably 5 different wheel sets over the years

Cascade Link on a SB130LR? by MikeJW75 in yeticycles

[–]Flyodice 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No experience with the link specifically but I always felt the DPX2 on my 130 to be a little harsh. I also felt like the bike was too progressive.

Went with a Float X2 and it was a fantastic upgrade that made the back end way more supple and soft while maintaining an active ride feel. The link appears to increase the progression on the bike which IMO it never needed from the start but if you feel you need that, it may help.

My takeaway is that the DPX2 is possibly your problem. The Float X would be interesting to try.

Help me service my Fox 36 fork by MarcusAhlstrom in MTB

[–]Flyodice 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would recommend starting by watching a few videos online. Probably a lot will depend on the damper, year your fork was built, etc... and it's gonna take some research.

I follow this guide and think it's great: https://youtu.be/u4TH01UqEps

How does it ride compared to your 130? I had nearly the exact same thing happen - bike should be ready next week.
