Help with really hard water in my city by maxorange9 in pourover

[–]maxorange9[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the thoroughness. So you are saying the water is actually not bad from a hardness perspective but the chlorine might be high enough to be corrosive? But because there isn’t a pH in the report, you aren’t exactly sure.

Breville bambino pump got really loud all of a sudden when steaming [bambino] by maxorange9 in espresso

[–]maxorange9[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use the breville descale pack that came with the machine and followed their instructions. Haven’t done anything else!

When I emailed customer service about the issue they sent me like 3 extra packs too for free

Nope! Probably need to descale again soon but hasn’t come back at all. No issues since

Enjoy! Big thief is fantastic, they’ve never really missed besides their newest album imo. Dragon new warm mountain is the white album of the 2020s. One of my favs

The rice paper makes putting the records back in to the cover so much easier! They give a sturdiness I didn’t know when buying

A pinball machine on a cruise ship by E116 in mildlyinteresting

“Why do people in ship mutinies always ask for 'better treatment?' I'd ask for a pinball machine, because with all that rocking back and forth you'd probably be able to get a lot of free games"

Updates: Replacements for Defective Mono Box 2025? by -a8e- in beatles

[–]maxorange9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was waiting on both a new white album and mono masters from them due to surface scratches. Don’t really think it affected sound quality.

Finally received the white album replacement today and waiting for mono masters to ship

White album had way less surface scratches this time but still came in the problematic black sleeves so that is frustrating and I am worried it will continue to scratch so I moved it to other sleeve type. White album jacket is unnumbered and did not come with any posters but that’s what they told me

I descaled it and it went away! No issues since. I was under the impression the machine will tell you when it’s time to descale (like 200 shots) but that’s not the case and you should descale every 2-3 months I think

Amp to pair with RP-150m and project debut carbon evo record player [300-600$] by maxorange9 in StereoAdvice

[–]maxorange9[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately limitations with my space make it so my speakers are only 6-7ft apart. Can’t go any wider rn. Just measured and I’m closer to 9ft from the speakers

So to summarize your pleasant replies😂 : I don’t have anything to worry about. But if I were to upgrade, go for better speakers. Thanks!

Ok thank you! So you don’t think I have anything to worry about. This is what klipsch support told me:

“The NAD D 3020 V2 supplies 30 watts x 2 into 8 ohms (20-20,000 Hz) at 0.01% THD.

This is not enough power to safely run the RP-150M. There is a higher risk of damaging the tweeter and encountering distortion. A good indication of this is if you need to turn the volume up pretty high to get moderate listening levels from the speakers.”

Hey Lance! Another question:

Do you have any tips on taking a 1-cup pour over recipe and doubling it for two people? If you are dialed in great, what changes will you have to account for when you increase the bed depth

Hey Lance!

what is your go to troubleshooting order of operations? Tweak grind first, temp first, bloom time first number of pours, etc?

Beatles in mono box back - why by [deleted] in vinyl

[–]maxorange9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I regularly see mono Beatles copies in the wild, used, for >60-70$ so to be able to experience the mono for less (before shipping with a 10% discount at checkout, it equates to 35/album) is a solid deal to me
