It is a fun project, isn't it? 🙂 I also love how effective it is at cleaning & stain removal. I've been making this detergent for more than 10 years and still love it. In the beginning I used to stir up the gel with a yard stick. I now use a paint mixer attachment with a power drill. Way more efficient and makes the mixture more consistent.

The light isn’t turn off during ironing like others iron is it normal?
@helpfulnatural
@helpfulnatural День назад
Yes, the light is on when the iron is plugged in. The light is on steady when heated to set temperature & when in use. The light will flash when it goes into standby mode when it's left on but not being moved around. Hope this helps.

@helpfulnatural
@helpfulnatural 14 дней назад
The instructions do say the upper part is dishwasher safe but I've never done it because it's too difficult to get all the water out. If you have a fan, place the part in front of the fan on high speed with the grinder part laying on its side. Turn it over ever now and then to dry it out. If you don't have a fan, you can use a blow dryer on low or warm setting...NOT HOT. The hottest temp may melt or warp the plastic bean hopper. Hope this helps.

If machine is grinding that fine, do you still need to use a pressurized basket on your espresso machine? Seems to reason a none pressurized basket would work?
@helpfulnatural
@helpfulnatural Месяц назад
I did try that but it still wasn't quite fine enough, the water ran right through the porta filter. When I bought a Breville Smart Grinder Pro, there was quite a difference in grind size/quality. It also had more options to dial in just the right setting for my non-pressurized porta filter.
@maximus3ae
@maximus3ae Месяц назад
Thanks for the response! Thats what I'm hearing elsewhere as well. I'm going to try this 3d printer holder for upper Burr holder that is suppose to allow for a much finer grind. Theoretically it "moves" the original settings 6 dots counter clockwise. Meaning if I put the bodum arrow on the espresso symbol it'll really be six spots beyond the ezpresso setting if I didn't do the modification. We'll see if it works out!

I only do cold brew so what Grinder would you recommend for fine grind?
@helpfulnatural
@helpfulnatural Месяц назад
Cold brew typically uses a coarse grind. If using the Bodum grinder, turn the arrow on the bean hopper all the way to the right so that it aligns with the last dot which is also the setting for French press.
@cpwrestler
@cpwrestler Месяц назад
After disassembling and washing the hopper, water has become trapped between the clear top and black bottom. I’m not sure how it got in there and I can’t seem to get it out. Any suggestions?
@helpfulnatural
@helpfulnatural Месяц назад
I suggest laying the hopper on its side and sit a fan in front of it to speed up the drying. There are a lot of small nooks inside the feedtube so it may take a while to getting completely dry. I don't expose any of my coffee grinders to water because it's difficult to dry it all out. I have another video showing how I clean this grinder using Minute Rice which works great for removing trapped coffee grounds as well as the oils.

I can’t get mine to do the vertical steam I have primed it and it’s still not working
@helpfulnatural
@helpfulnatural Месяц назад
How I got mine to work was to first make sure the iron was hot enough to steam. I then moved it back and forth on my ironing board to make sure it was steaming. I then lifted it just a few inches off of the board and while holding the iron horizontally, start pressing the steam button. It took several presses to get it going. After the steam burst happened, I was then able to use the iron vertically with the steam burst. Hope this helps.
