Absolutely no use for it at all, but hey, it's Inconel 600, I was gonna have it.

I meant to ask for the link for that, looks like it might be just the job for clamping on the Amolco. What do you mean when you refer to "sacrificial plates"?

Its a Hi Nikel/chromium alloy that can take silly temps either way, along with high corrosion resistance

Welding Inconel, most of the Inconel family actually, although it's not a proper match for grade 625. Or weld cladding something as an overlay. Or joining dissimilar metals, there's enough nickel in it to work for most grades of stainless and nickel alloys to steel.
Inconel is used in very high temperature or chemical service, often both... it's very good for the likes of turbine blades. Not that I'll be welding any turbine blades
Anyway, there's a load more sat on ebay, if anyone wants some... search "nicro 82"

It's done. It tastes...
Alright I suppose. No nicer than without the nitrogen.
It looks cool at least, it's got the classic cascading look, here's a tiny gif.

I think if I made a better coldbrew to begin with it would have been much better. I used 10:1 water to coffee, some recipes online go as much as 4:1
It's probably a good thing it's not amazing anyway, it's got to be the most expensive way to make coffee (Short of just buying it from Costa).
I’ll just leave this here to settle(in)
I've certainly tried.
Two years tee-total, come 1st january
Awesome !!
When people ask me why I don’t drink:
“everyone in life has their allocated number of cases....... my problem was, I drank all mine at once”
nearly 25 years sober for me now, one day at a time

@slim_boy_fat and @Welderpaul , the 15m pressure hose arrived that you were interested in. I bought it from here
Its far better than the stock hose, but at nearly half the cost of the whole pressure washer then it should
Its braided rubber rather than hard plastic which helps,
You can see it uncoils quite easily, the Karcher one is like a watch spring
This is the karcher hose, I guess if it was stretched out in a warm room for a while, or stick it in some warm water for a while then stretch it out then it would be a bit better but its always going to want to tangle up.
the two side by side, the new one is on the left, its a bit thicker but has a higher temp/pressure spec but is still more flexible and seems to have less memory. Its snowing up here so I won't be trying it out for a while. I checked it fits the pressure washer ok but that's about it for now.
Cheers
Andy

Pasteurising beer removes all the carbonation, so for keg beers its added back either with just CO2, or with some nitrogen added. The nitrogen has smaller bubbles and gives you those cream flow type of "ales" and Guinness. Both are far from the origins of ale and stout. I wouldn't touch a pint of John Smith's creamflow or Guinness unless the only alternative was Carling, Budweiser (not Budvar, that's not too bad) or that horrible Jagermeister, proof that people will buy any old tosh if you market it correctly
