I do lift my coil a few mm off the deck. Slightly raising the coil after I attach the legs. But you will see, it is easy. The trap-coil method is one of my favorites, because if you just do it right in the center of the screw, on both sides, and tug (very gently) you pretty much wind up with "ideal" coil placement. It should be hard to even make it "sit" on the deck, you'd have to pull down after placing the legs. Flavor is good just raised a hair from where the legs sit "flush" against the screw. I make sure everything is trapped pretty tightly, and then just tug up, a bit. That's where the flavor "shines" for me, but eh, you know, everything's different.
Also, the Siren typically comes with some machining oil, without a thorough clean it's going to taste not good. I do sometimes wonder if folks who complained about flavor washed it thoroughly enough. Because if that doesn't happen, you will get a funky taste for a fair amount of time.
Good luck, the Siren has one of the easiest build decks ever, very similar to the ares. Even I can do a good job building those suckers.

... in my mind diy will be pretty much like making chemistry solutions. If I can manage full molar sulfuric acid ( granted, I had a fume hood), I should be okay with nic base. Thinking of making a mobile plexiglass surround for the cooktop as a makeshift fume hood using the cooktop vent hood for fume removal


You open that stuff in the kitchen and everyone in the room dies, you get a drop on your skin and you die, your pets or children touch a spilled drop and they die...
