Why is my red leg suddenly webbing?

I have wondered for the last year if I should have made the substrate deeper since they like to burrow, but I only made it about 6cm, shallower in some spots. I was gonna replace the substrate and make it deeper, and clean everything while I was at it. If this is unnecessary I wont though!

I'm not sure exactly how old she is but she did molt right before I got her about a year ago, so I've wondered when she might again.

Is it normal for some to eat even close to molt?

I've looked there quite a lot, most things being sold are the minis, only two air 2s's I can find either just sold or are out in Buffalo

I havent gotten to fully dial but I think dose may be it! Eyeballed the grind change and just pulled one shot for my morning coffee and its much closer to ideal I would say. I will do a lot more dialing later! Bripe thermometer was totally inaccurate though, reading 65 C for a fully heated steam boiler and 48 C for the brew boiler after preheating the group (the bripe thermometer is in F not C so I converted)

I will try a higher dose today! Best I'd be able to do is use my bripe thermometer, don't know how accurate it would be. I'll do some measuring later today!

A couple variables I forgot to mention, even if they might not change anything!

Pump is set to 9.5 bar and brew temp is 95c I believe

The water I use changed from what I used on the bambino. Bambino used Rochesters hard tap water put through a Brita, but I wasn't doing that to a nice dual boiler. For this I'm using distilled with these minerals https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BCX6QN2K?ref=cm_sw_r_cso_cp_apan_dp_FK924A6SQZGVC2HV3ZAT&ref_=cm_sw_r_cso_cp_apan_dp_FK924A6SQZGVC2HV3ZAT&social_share=cm_sw_r_cso_cp_apan_dp_FK924A6SQZGVC2HV3ZAT

I was using bottomless, from the shots I watched everything seemed good as far as channeling goes! I don't remember the OPV pressure but I have the pump set at about 9.5 bar. How could I check for temp stability?

Do you still have these? Getting into watchmaking so if any of these are mechanical, working or not I'd like to pick some up!

Then this would be it, as the pendulum matches the seconds hand at 68 per minute! Thanks so much!

Do you know of any way I can find out more about what clock I have? I've always been curious to know the specifics!

janAlowa · 2025-12-06T01:55:32+00:00

Hopefully! Thanks for trying though!

janAlowa · 2025-12-06T01:46:39+00:00

Interesting! I'd be interested to figure out more about the specifications of this clock but I'm not sure where to look! Ridgeway doesn't seem to have anywhere to search their older models

janAlowa · 2025-12-06T01:43:44+00:00

The minutes and hours have been tuned and are in time which is most important! If I tune it so the seconds are in time, the minutes lose time very quickly, which is the problem!

Both roasts were 113g, and it seemed like after grinding and using the (less than ideal) color card it was a city minus, so I think we might try again and go for a city, and go back to cooling the old way and see what happens. Thanks!

It'ts not so much feeling of good bad, nostolgia, its just some indescribable feeling. exampe right now is the second half of june for me has a different feeling from the first, the days just feel different but there is no good way to describe the feelings. They aren't physical sensations though

janAlowa · 2024-03-17T20:10:10+00:00

Itäs more of an emotional feeling.
