...That was the idea that lead to my still-unsurpassed and brilliant cotter-pin mod.   8)

I have a great deal of respect for you but that has to be one of the most subjective opinions I have ever seen you render <w/>.

Peter,

I think that the cotter pin mod deserves a kickstarter to fund a project to get these cotter pins out to the public.

What if you dribbled water down a clean soldering iron instead of a chopstick?  You'd heat the water at the same time as your pouring, maintaining good temps.  You might have to PID that soldering iron to make sure you don't overheat the coffee bed.

I like how you think yakman!  Your brain probably works like mine; not much is original, but it does well taking the idea of another person and tweaking it.

I like that chopstick guy.  8)

I don't know what he was saying but I know exactly what he was saying.

Added a new (to me) kettle to the growing coffee paraphernalia collection.  From shopgoodwill.com for $15.  Williams Sonoma.  Needs a bit of cleaning, and I haven't actually tried it out yet, but what the heck, it was cheap.

Good clearout prices on Tiamo kettles over at OrphanEspresso.com.  Half tempted to grab a 1.6 liter.  I can speak to their quality -- I have a very well made, durable 1.0 Liter one.

That half moon looks nifty but I really can't use another kettle.

Sweetmarias noted this 1.7L Bonavita variable temp, pouring kettle, while they were at SCAA.  This is the Cadillac as far as I am concerned.  I like to finish 1L poured and have to push and challenge my stove-top kettles for that full liter, though it can be done if kettle is monitored. 


Not yet available on the retail scene.

Does anyone know the expected release info on that larger gooseneck. I've never done pour over but was wanting to try it!

You guys should embrace the small kettle.

You don't drive those huge dual wheel trucks do you? ;D

So I have an annoyance with my electric Bonavita kettle, if I fill to the max line and start off with a very slow pour the water will follow the spout back to pot instead of on my awaiting coffee.

Is there a kettle that is designed to not do this?

Found my answer. Thank you.

You can tweak the spout with a needle nose pliers.
