I’ve had my tornado a couple of weeks now and I think I prefer my anvil (thermocore). This is with torch use, quad flame. I find the anvil has better flavour and little to no technique involved. From the very first sesh with the anvil it was just aim the torch at the fat part of the oven and...

Cool, thanks for the clarification. Cheers.

Thanks for the reply mate. Is the IH sleeve not part of the upgrade kit? Cheers.

Hi @Brenyo , Just wondering if the tip/head diameter of the v1 with the v2 upgrade kit installed will be the same as the standard v2? I have a scruffy woofer cooling stand order coming up soon and would like one of the ports made for my v1 with upgrade kit. Cheers mate.

Yeah, I did end up get my refund. It was weird though, on the refund notification it looked like the whole order was refunded. But it was just for the chico and shipping which we agreed upon. I am really happy with the satchmo, it’s a great product. I would have loved to get a chico as well...

Just having a closer look at the pics of it now and it won’t work for the tempest. It has a raised hex bit in the middle of the magnet that I hadn’t noticed initially, so will only work with vestratto devices unfortunately.

I did email asking about a stainless reload, this was the reply… I would also interested in titanium but, as someone above said, I think the price would make it unfeasible. Vestratto have announced a stainless stash that is a similar concept to the reload. I’ve got one on order so will see if...

Thanks for the suggestions mate, much appreciated. I am leaning towards having Azzwood make me something if I can’t find anything instock, I’ll check out Kalu as well though. Thanks again man!

Anyone know a good place to get a nice wooden heat shield for the Vestratto stem? I was after a silver mist tornado but ended up with a carbon one so that will need replacing. Most of the wooden ones I’ve found are out of stock. Open to commissioning one too. Cheers.

Just an update to my previous post, I have now received a refund notification email.

Unfortunately my recent experience was quite the opposite of Twit 89521. I really wanted one of the chico jyarz but I couldn’t justify buying just one with the cost of shipping to Australia. So I decided to order a satchmo as well as a chico. A week ago today I got an email to say the satchmo...

I agree with this. From the blurry picture we can see I feel the v1 body is much more aesthetically pleasing. I can understand why a multi size wpa was integrated into the stem but think a stand alone wpa would be a better idea. Too late now I suppose.

In regards to the manufacturer, trust is easily lost and hard to regain. There should be consequences for the dishonesty and cover ups. I know I personally will never buy one of their products.

Yeah, I was just a bit concerned as I tried to contact them via email and instagram a couple of weeks ago but didn’t get a reply, still haven’t to be honest. Usually, when I have tried to contact them in the past, they have been relatively quick to respond. All good though, my order went...

All good. My order was just processed. :rockon:
