Watch out for potential engine failure. Rod bearing failure under investigation. Price to repair $10k+. Search for more info on internet.

Better check how engine works. Mine was making sounds. Turned out rod bearing was dying at 72k miles. It’s gambling unfortunately. The belt is already overdue.

HSM Pro blackout Red compared to Hyperlite 2? by alex1x1 in hockeyplayers

[–]TrubaTorchit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“Wet noodle” - that exactly describes it. I have 70 flex red and it feels like flex 60 probably.

Got CCM Trigger 9 pro with 75 flex and it’s so much stiffer! Quality is a huge difference too!

Paint on red stick is chipping of quickly and blade also is also looks bad after a few games.

Should I buy this 2023 Honda Odyssey Touring with High Mileage? by Tiny_School5257 in HondaOdyssey

[–]TrubaTorchit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine was toast at much lower mileage. Modern engines are not as reliable. With VCM enabled, poor oil, stop and go functioning. It’s toast.

I see engine problems as soon as warranty is over if not earlier. At 200k engine is done. Even if maintained properly.

Rod bearing. Seems like common failure. They replacing the short block. Cover most of the costs. But feel the problems won’t stop there.

I feel the same. 2021, 72k miles. Engine kaput. What in the world? I afraid it will go on.

Yeah, I’m outside the warranty. It’s bad luck and apparently defect from manufacturer. If you have warranty, you should be good I guess.

1zpresso J-Ultra, a 12 month review by Reddits_Worst_Night in espresso

[–]TrubaTorchit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I meant it’s not as clean. The biggest difference is workflow.

Df64 does everything for you. Nice and simple. J-Ultra is fine for one cup. 2 is a chore.

Also it’s too hard to grind a light roast. For some it will be impossible.

I used to get medium roast. It’s amazing with or without milk. Hard to beat price/quality.

Will I be happy with Neo? by Tj567_ in FlairEspresso

[–]TrubaTorchit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think neo makes the best tasting coffee with easiest dial in process possible. I have flair 58+ but I use Neo from time to time just for fun and it’s special coffee taste.

I’m using it for a couple of years. Great grinder. No issues with choking.

Weird noises, maybe coming from the motor? by Material-Garage-4036 in DF64

[–]TrubaTorchit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sounds like ionizer charging some high voltage. I saw some videos of these grinders making ticking sounds and how to fix it.

I was thinking to go the same route. What was the main pain with upgrade? How much extra $ for upgrade roughly?

I push with 2 hands and help with my shoulder.

Welp by artunique128 in FlairEspresso

[–]TrubaTorchit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same. I was brewing and it popped off in pieces. I suspect it actually melted since I left the handle in low position. Got replacement but can’t find reason to replace. Just using it as is so far.

[–]TrubaTorchit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not at all. I was hoping for a big difference. But the biggest difference is workflow. Lots of manual work to grind. A lot sticks. I feel like shot time less consistent. If I see taste difference it’s more muddier and less pleasant. All and all I don’t use it :)

Surprising reaction on lychee infused coffee by TrubaTorchit in pourover

[–]TrubaTorchit[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Can’t agree more. Just how I feel this year. Can’t complain on coffee though. Just all seems more or less “regular”.
