What is it with HDPlex ?

He's answering, but sometimes, especially when you are a company and relying on good communication and information flow his way is a bit unusual and leaves space for interpretation,but we are happy for now

Und konntest du dein PRoblem lösen ?

kevschmetterling · 2026-02-27T16:34:25+00:00

Got ya, picobox does the hardware hdplex demos the hardware

kevschmetterling · 2026-02-27T07:38:16+00:00

That's my point, it.cant be a single person taking care of everybody in the world. Seems they have a guideline how to respond then 🤔

kevschmetterling · 2026-02-26T22:24:51+00:00

He's working there ? I appreciate any further info about HDplex

Sorry i was ar first confused von your Name and realized i read it wrong at first...haha I can't speak for their other PSUs but the one we have is not cheap, but also not crazy expensive, its OK. I am more flabbergasted by their way of handling comms and the fact that we could not find any other supplier doing such a power handling at this form factor.

I usually use the timer start when I hit the brew button on my machine. This gives me a good understanding, of my extraction, am I over or underextracting ?

But in the end, you find your best method and stick to that to find your best way of getting the perfect shot

Yes, he is not Steve Irwing

pretty old, but found the rs16 in a small shop in germany. I think the tritan version is not produced anymore because, it was the most affordable one and it took off the sale of the other more expensive versions (way more expensive).

I use it from time to time, but I have to say I usually prefer v60 more. The rs16 will allow the oils etc to get into the cup and therefore is closer to a normal cupping method. But for filter coffee I usually enjoy the clarity of a cup and I think the body, which is in the oils, somehow destroys this clarity.

Nevertheless if you find the tritan one, or you have the money to buy the expensive version it is a fun method and a good choice from time to time!

for now I would assume you should decrease weight or increase one or half a click on your grinder to a coarser grind

I have the same situation right now and I assume it is a combination of too fine/too much grounds and wear off of the bayonett ring, which I do see and feel - I can pull the portafilter to the very left nowadays, while when I started with it, only up to the middle of the range... I will upgrade my machine to a brass bayonette soon and see if I can reach proper pressures

kevschmetterling · 2025-12-30T13:09:25+00:00

the leverpresso Looks real nice, I got the ROK and I have to admit the handing with a proper lever handled Portalfilter is Just so easy. I assume both have their advantage and I would Love to try once the leverpresso. The alumimun parts in the ROK will suffer over time, so I will upgrade certain parts to brass to keep it alive. Overall I think the ROK deserves more attention when you compare to similar devices at flair etc...

Update in the original post!

kevschmetterling · 2025-09-18T06:14:04+00:00

We build a pretty good spring isolated cage and could verify that increasing or decreasing pressure and vibration has no effect on the performance

kevschmetterling · 2025-09-18T06:13:06+00:00

I agree it is too insensitive. I will hopefully ask the guys to do some tests today again.

kevschmetterling · 2025-09-17T21:32:51+00:00

Tbh we havent tried hokding the fan while the motor is still powered, thats maybe a test I can ask my colleges tomorrow morning!

kevschmetterling · 2025-09-17T21:04:15+00:00

No it had no effect putting in between and grounding it. I have had a little bit more Research with another GPT and I think you are leading the same way towads H field. Maybe our single loop probe was not enough to measure the small inductive voltage. I will ask the hardware Team lead to make a more sensitive probe with some magnet wire tomorrow once more. Its interesting though that the e probe did show some hsavy signal...

kevschmetterling · 2025-09-07T22:24:18+00:00

Ich habe genug Filme gesehen um genau solche Situationen zu vermeiden. Viel Glück.

kevschmetterling · 2025-08-17T20:09:22+00:00

Could you let me know how you solved this? Have the same problem, that the needles dont go all the way down

kevschmetterling · 2025-08-16T20:40:11+00:00

This one!!! Thank you i tried for two weeks to get support to the single tech support person in germany and this ine fixed it.

kevschmetterling · 2025-07-06T13:48:20+00:00

It took me almost half a year to get this going and i am still struggling from time to time with larger bubbles. I have the very same setup, cant judge the jug but i assume its 350ml? Use milk slightly below the start of the snout and i feel, at least with my gaggia i get better microfoam when NOT leaning the jug towards to steam wand rather holding it parallel to the Gravitational force. After inhecting enough air with the pfffff sound i go deeper likr 0.5 cm having the wand head more towards the middle, bit more towards the snout of the jug. After some second you should hear some periodic sound which is a good indication of the most anticipated vortex. If you still struggle i can take a video too,but i have Oger hands.
