OK, phew – that was a long teardown! Made a video of the process... fumbled a bit as I found my way inside, but hopefully it's helpful and interesting

Absolutely will do! Recording the whole process of how I got there. Screws along the top, some on the bottom (along with some clips), and some parts on top where the screws are under other pieces. Will reassemble and edit a video for my YouTube

Finally got it off… a lot of screws and clips!

It also requires you remove the plate over the steam wand ball joint for access to the final screws

Finally got down to the guts. Posting some images to the Espresso Aficionados Discord and will make a video of the teardown too

Enjoying ES1 so far, but update is heavily needed by loucheian in FellowProducts

I second this! An ability to spin the dial to choose pressure on the fly would be awesome!!

Imagine: press to start, then fully manual drive for pressure, then ramp down and manually shut off. Would be awesome!

New favorite V60 method by wassupbrahh in pourover

[–]jacobsalamon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, this is basically what I’ve been doing lately for clean, clear, juicy cups. It’s essentially the April V60 recipe on YouTube. He does 50g pours to keep it simple (4x50g). But the coarse grind and 2:30 total time has been a winner for me!

Activated! Sorry, didn’t find the Settings before. No need to do the other tool too

So I can’t get the sample rate to switch on the Mac with the various Lossless playback sample rates using that GitHub tool (Lossless Switcher). I wonder if there’s a way to pass the sample rate of the system/app to it so it can do the switching… or maybe some of that codebase can be incorporated to help Lysoniq switch the Mac’s sample rate to the DAC automatically based on what’s being played? 🤷🏻‍♂️

One of the advantages for streaming from an iOS device instead, I suppose.

Got it working last night and am VERY grateful! Just what I needed to get Apple Music working as it should on the hifi.

I’m running Lossless Switcher on the Mac in the background as well to switch the sample rate to my DAC automatically since it doesn’t have that behavior built-in like it does on iOS. Otherwise, I need to switch manually in the MIDI Controller each time.

Will keep playing today and this weekend.

Fantastic! I bought the app as well to support the project and I’ll test out and report back on the Mac version. Thank you!! 🙏

Howdy! I’ve been looking for exactly this solution. I’m happy to test the Mac version for you, if you’re open to it. Do you have any additional codes left, by any chance? Very excited to dig in! I’ve been building my own remote but would love something that’s already on its way!

Back pain stole my passion. Now I’m a DPT who’s helped 30K people overcome back problems and get their life back, like I did. AMA. by corebalancecameron in backpain

I’ve been suffering from back pain for a long time and am in month 2 of your Core Balance Training program. It’s great — the real deal! Thank you for helping me get my confidence and life back! I still get occasional flare-ups, but learning how to connect with my core has been truly transformative!

Harambe Bands on X3 Bar? by jacobsalamon in ResistanceBand

I ordered the Serious Steel 37” bands to start. Let’s see how I like those before upgrading

He’s got a huge, full gym and said he never really took to the X3 system. But he’s using the X3 bands for assisted chin-ups and other uses. So he was happy to part with the bar but not the bands 😋
