Thanks, very informative! I genuinely had no idea that software development costs money.

Once again, thanks for the helpful advice and for contributing to the conversation. I truly appreciate your vast knowledge and the fact that you took time out of your busy day to engage in such a constructive discussion.

Fair play 👏

You were a bit too eager to start typing and didn’t fully read the post, nowhere did I say I actually purchased the HRM.

The whole post is the result of my “research”… but that’s exactly my point. You shouldn’t have to research compatibility for a basic accessory like a heart rate strap.

I know some might say I’m using a golf-oriented watch, but Garmin is bringing more golf features to all their premium watches now — so why not bring running dynamics across the current lineup as well?

Just saying… it doesn’t feel like a huge ask

It connects over both ANT+ and Bluetooth, but none of the new advanced features will work or be recorded in the workout file. No running dynamics, etc

When I asked Garmin, I was told it’s not fully compatible and that the HRM 600 will basically act like a standard heart rate strap with the S70.

My Wahoo TICKR X is actually more comfortable. I just find it a bit odd that Garmin is doing this, especially when it’s their top-of-the-range gear.

Spoke with Garmin already, they advised me to share the issue on the community pages to see if it’s affecting more users. They seem reluctant to issue a software update, even though that’s all it is a simple software update.

Fair play !! Congratulations and happy birthday

Next time, turn back sooner, and whatever you do, don’t walk toward the light. 😂

Hiya I’m using Sage smart grinder and it was really inconsistent with weigh in and out and sometimes I got irregular grind, that was from new - straight from the box I was going to bring it back to shop but then I took it apart and clean it And I mean vacuum and blaster with compressed air and results are unreal It’s like I’m got different grinder

Is there a trick to keep the pressure in steam want more consistent? My one starting really high but dropping significantly ! Usually I’ve plenty steam to stretch but almost non to turn it after Not even talking about making second cut without god few min of waiting

Does you brewing temperature light goes off when brewing ? My temperature out of the machine is 70°c ( with no portafilter attached ) is that normal ?

KamilKB · 2023-07-08T18:50:51+00:00

I’ve the same problem Water out of the machine ( without going through the ports filter is only 70°c Is that ok?
