@garett (manually quoting since I can’t reply to quotes in quotes) You should have a silver VI in your tempest head already that I think you’re supposed to reuse? The beta upgrade just includes click discs and a new spring (don’t see a VI listed, but I also didn’t get a beta model to verify)...

I should probably also apologise too. I’m so used to the “it’s just a joke, don’t take it seriously” defence being used to excuse cruel/bigoted statements thinly disguised as humour on other social medias that I lost track of your intent. Meant to add something like this to my comment last...

The video is embedded at the bottom of the manual on madheaters’ site. Also the click disc orientation is drawn on the table in the video but may not be directly indicated in the video

Ah that’s a bit more fair, flexitarianism can sometimes be a bit inconsistent, though meat can be helpful if you have something like iron uptake issues. Had a vegetarian childhood friend who couldn’t metabolise iron supplements and needed meat for the heme iron when she had particularly heavy...

No more until the next production batch, which is estimated in about 6 months (probably longer based on how long this batch took to make)

Yeah, something like this would sour or ruin a friendship for me too since the only people who’d get the hotdog cubes are people who thought you were safe. It’s a joke for folks who don’t have any sort of dietary restrictions, but it shows that you don’t take her and her preferences seriously...

So my background is that I started as a pipe smoker who’d mostly just smoke occasionally. Would always feel super gutted the day after smoking, so ended up getting a MFLB soon after I left college and used that off and on for the next decade until l discovered my old batteries wouldn’t hold a...

Breaks are probably helpful. I treat this kinda like a joint where I do a few smaller sips rather than 1 long draw since native/through a j hook is too much for me. Biggest impact I’ve seen though is to take 1 slow initial sip to reduce heat a bit, then finish the bowl how you want. With a...

Try: To fix top level scorching: - set head airport to 50% or lower Or - draw slower To prevent full bowl combustion: - push the wand adapter up a bit further. Easiest way for me was to set the glass flush with the bottom of the wand, then push it back out slowly with the tempest until I could...

If it works then you should be fine! For my adapter the silicone sleeve would stick out and block the VI when fully inserted, so I had to remove the glass insert, add the silicone then put the insert back in. If I had bothered to actually read the manual at this point rather than just skimming...

Is the whole load combusting, or just the layer closest to the head? What balls are you using? What sort of draw speed? If you’re fully combusting consistently with that wide of a temperature range, you probably have the adapter set incorrectly. I started mine in what I thought was the middle...

What specifically are you looking for? Manual has pictures showing what are generally the least intuitive parts of disassembly (unscrewing the oven ring for bowl mode, removing the oven elbow joint for both), and there’s not really much more to it than removing the capsule, plug, mouthpiece and...

Seems normal to me, just boiling the liquid off. I usually soak mine in iso, shake out, rinse in water, shake again then put into the wand to boil the excess off. Probably should let it dry a little longer on my end 😅

Yeah, the only things that can’t pull apart are oven and the head which screw together (and the indicator housing, but there’s a video on that). When I got mine EVERYTHING felt like I’d break it by pulling apart, but eventually they came loose without harm.

Ah thought so! It’s been years since I’ve seen proper dairy milk foam so wasn’t sure if you added whip cream on top, or if the foam deformed into a little pillar when you put the cocoa dusting on top/ stirred. Now I’m craving an espresso con panna after thinking about whip cream…

Is that whipped cream or foam on top? Looks delicious!

I use my airflow tube to push it out. Anything that small with a flat end (like a dynavap condenser for instance) should work as well. To reset you can use the Reload or mouthpiece, but double check the screen for damage before reinserting. The screen that came with my tempest was really mangled...

Seconded! I kept scorching or burning the layer closest to the head whole the rest was medium roasted with the default full open. Reduced the head airflow to about half and I still can get close to scorching, but only in the center if I draw too quickly and the entire (half) bowl is nearly...

I emailed him recently about my broken oven tab and it took me about a week to get back to me

Reminds me of the memes about the chemical DHMO:
