Bought the UD a few months ago and I've been loving it. However, I am not using a VVPS (on my list, will just be awhile until I get around to getting one) and I'm wondering if my unit is faulty or if I'm doing something wrong. My avb is brownish-yellow and is only that dark if I use the nylon stem. If I use the glass stem it barely turns brown. I've tried changing draw length and how hard I draw but neither one seems to help/hurt.
I also know that I should grind my green a little finer, right now I'm using a standard grinder with standard results. Are there any "home" remedies for this? I know coffee grinders work well, but again, its on the list but won't be buying for awhile.
As a side note, sometimes the unit will be hot, almost too hot to touch. This doesn't worry me, but it makes me think that the unit is working fine and my grind is the issue? Any feedback would be greatly appreciated guys! Love my unit but I want it to take me to the moon, instead of just making me feel good.
