Hey M - I think the SS tank looks much better, after you get use to it, you will use it all the time.
It was a little weird at first, not being able to see the juice level. But really, very basic and quick to get the feel for it. I'm loving the fact that I don't have to worry about it toppling over and busting my tank. When I get to order another, I'm going shiny to put on my currently unused shiny brass tube, for Sunday use. I'll use the Pyrex on that setup. You're right, I'm definitely digging the SS tank.
D, thanks for all the mentoring on the C+. I shaved a lot off of the learning and preference curve with your awesome assistance. Wish I had your photo skillz though!
