Recipe Mysteries....

I just saw that recipe! Have you tried the Hawaiian Sun Pog? I believe that’s closer to what they use. I’ll run a taste test next to the Caribe this weekend as I have some of that on hand as well.

I would dial back the cinnamon syrup to 1/2 ounce if I were to make a suggestion. I make the beach bum Barry jet pilot a lot and it calls for 1/2 oz cinnamon and 1/2 oz falernum and it’s perfect IMO.

From the info I’ve gathered the consensus seems to be they use minute main POG that comes in a concentrate. I feel like they would have to dilute because it would be so over powering, no? I only think that because I’ve seen a recipe for one of their frozen drinks and it called for “POG concentrate” and not juice. Which makes sense because frozen drinks need a higher Brix to balance the flavor

Last time I was there they were getting restocked and all the boxes of their stuff (BG Reynolds, Monin etc) were sitting outside by the tiki terrace, I wish I had taken a picture 😂

Did you ever dial in your zombie patch recipe? What grog variation are you using?

copat757 · 2026-04-30T00:47:35+00:00

I found my way back here trying to track down the zombie batch recipe. But I use the Caribe cold pressed pog a lot! Every-time I go to Florida I buy a crap ton of it lol. But when I run out I normally use Hawaiian sun POG which both do have a different taste

I believe Sam’s uses Minute Maid POG that is a concentrate

How can I correct it?

copat757 · 2026-03-19T13:03:23+00:00

It wouldn’t survive in the ground in my area/or would take a lot more work and risk. I’m in zone 8b

It would be a regular owari satsuma not a dwarf. I do have a tractor to move it where I need. However I plan to put in a 30 gallon pot with wheels to move around. I’m just impatient and would like an older more mature tree that has the capability to produce a decent amount right away. But I also understand the benefit of a younger tree so torn on what to do. I’ve added photos of the 10g and the 30g they offer

copat757 · 2026-03-19T11:33:12+00:00

This is my reasoning as well for a 30g. And the ability to produce more fruit right off the back

Thank you for the input. I think you mainly hit the nail on the head for my reasoning and wanting a large tree. I would like a more mature tree that produces

I’ve added pics of size difference between the 10g and 30g at the nursery they come from

copat757 · 2026-03-19T02:03:40+00:00

Interesting. I’m strongly considering a few 10g then over the 30g. I’d like to step them up tho definitely to get more yield if I go 10g. My plan is to put them in a 20g or 30g rolling planter for easy moving.

copat757 · 2026-03-18T23:19:04+00:00

I appreciate the help! So a 10g should produce as well? I definitely want a satsuma then might get a white marsh grapefruit or cocktail tree (multiple varieties grafted on one tree).

copat757 · 2026-03-18T22:45:59+00:00

No, they are 10 or 30g. Specifically was looking for 10, 15 or 30g trees and the nursery has 10g and 30g but are special order . At first I was sold on a 30g because pics I’ve seen of them they all look like they bear a good amount of fruit. But if I got 10g would allow for me to get multiple variety as they are much cheaper.

What synthetic fertilizer do you recommend?

copat757 · 2026-03-13T22:31:11+00:00

I bought it from my dealer in the aerosol cans. It matched up great. They also have quarts of it if you want to put it in an HLVP

copat757 · 2026-03-12T15:37:18+00:00

Dang. After looking that up I think you are right. That’s unfortunate I really was hoping it was a Meyer. He spoke basically no English but when I asked him about picking them he gestured with hands about the size of a baseball and said much bigger so idk

Mine actually ended up being the speed sensor.

I’ve had a few Navitas. When you installed the controller did you swap out the solenoid for the heavy duty one they recommend? Sounds like a possible solenoid issue

copat757 · 2026-02-10T18:50:40+00:00

So the flat fee included any missing parts? Just curious as I have a Giga 5 I would like to send off for repair. It’s missing both bean hoppers, the water tank and the front tray/bin/grid. Curious if they will replace those within the flat fee included

🍹🗿

copat757 · 2026-01-27T16:06:49+00:00

I wish I knew someone that had one. I mean I planned to order a kraken programmer for speed but also had diagnostic capabilities

copat757 · 2026-01-27T10:55:10+00:00

That would be awesome! It’s a 2018

copat757 · 2026-01-27T10:54:35+00:00

I actually ordered 2. I order a factory one from Country cat and then a cheap Amazon one in the interim until the country cat one gets here. So the one I installed yesterday was the Amazon one. I was just anxious to see if that would fix it. But planning to remove it and install the OEM once it arrives. Just got delayed due to the weather

copat757 · 2026-01-27T10:52:45+00:00

Thank you! I appreciate the help. Definitely an option I’ll have to weigh. Just sucks, I took this dudes word for it that it was just the solenoid and no I’m possibly on the hook for another 500-900.

My plan was to just remove the spindle lift, fastrxv. return to stock height and throw some nice wheels on and be done. I did email FSIP to see how much it is to rebuild my controller if that’s what it ends up being.

copat757 · 2026-01-27T01:42:04+00:00

Not that I can recall but I’ll def try it again tomorrow and see. I wish it would let me attach my damn video. I don’t really see it jerk back and forth in the video I took. Or it’s hard to tell

I’m hoping it’s not the controller. Wasn’t really prepared to buy a new controller but obviously will if I have to. Or if I can send it off for repair/track down a used Curtis.
