Remineralizing filter should work for your drinking faucet and espresso/coffee machine Just wondering what happens if you go away for vacation then get an initial slug of super mineralized water - Not a problem to dump to drain if you are filling a tank on the espresso machine, but if you are...

I’m a little confused as you said the softener is upstream of the RO and also from your drinking system and then also to the softener Softened water is beneficial for RO membranes, but is cost/benefit issue between softener operating costs vs membrane fouling. I’m guessing that your equipment...

Seems like a lot of the national coffee chains remove then add minerals to standardize the taste of their product. Even Costco bottled water (and many name brands too) do the same for consistency. If your source water is acceptable, you might look into using a less efficient RO membrane to...

How about grabbing a cheap Masterbuilt electric smoker off of CL to use as a holding oven? (Me thinking of a reason to keep my masterbuilt electric smoker around…)

I spun a Xmas eve ribeye roast on the Vieluxe and agree with most of the comments Wet aged a 3-bone roast for 4 weeks then cut off bones (to make au jus) and dry brined overnight with SPG I smoked at 140-160f using the onboard smoke burner and also supplemented with smoke tubes until it hit 132...

Will Jon Tofte’s reinforcing panels fit that front panel? If so that would address the top concern of the rusting Do the grates of that sit on stainless rails or the porcelain steel panels? That would be the other worry

Tom Is your thermometer messed up too? Hard to believe the crummy (yet beefy) thermometers they put in these things… haven’t seen one that isn’t messed up yet

Re the Vieluxe for sale Looks to be in good shape: Nameplate is not faded Thermometer is not as miscalibrated as mine (or the one shown in https://www.anotherpintplease.com/blog//2014/08/the-vieluxe-little-weber-history-via.html) Knobs don’t look weathered (difficult to tell from photo) NG...

Errr… Not a chance

Last night’s Porchetta meal on my 4 burner Vieluxe could have used the extra 12” of the big brother V

I’ve been using cat kibble in my electronic rat trap for years A few tips: Electronic doesn’t create a mess (unless you don’t clear the trap soon after kill) Mice are much less intelligent than rats Use a camera to monitor trap so you know when it’s been triggered and can clear before it gets...

I believe the aluminum side panels become degraded from grease that eventually becomes acidic. The heat down there should be much less than at burner level…

This place has Kikuichi and just about every other type of Japanese knife out there Never really seen any great deals though… sniff sniff https://www.chefknivestogo.com/

I think if you trimmed the flanges off the heat shield to make it flat, it should cover enough of the panel to protect it. The corrosion always starts at the edges of the openings and spreads from there. Good on Weber for giving you a new panel - never underestimate the leverage you have...

SOLD Anyone here get it?

Agreed Try not Buy at WS Then check cutlery and more on Black Friday…

Yeah - it’s probably more like 80% performance with less than 10% effort… with electric sharpener, you’d be done and sitting back in your recliner in less time than just setup and cleanup with whetstones Now try some cheap fine edge (aka non-serrated) steak knives and see what you’ve been...
