We've only done it once each - I'd put the pot on a bit skew-whiff so the coffee missed the entry point but my husband hadn't put the pot there at all - but we're not that young any more :D

growing old is mandatory, growing up is optional.

In this house we go through a few carafes every year.I keep hitting the side of the sink when cleaning them and ...oops! :)

just stop cleaning them. problem solved.

;)

I'm getting a Pico on Saturday (two days woo.) Should I be aware of any issues?
I got 5 altogether. Been using the first one for quite a while with no problems.

One odd thing happens with mine. If I screw the battery cap on all the way it sometimes doesn't power up at all. I have to keep the cap backed off slightly. Just a small part of a turn. Never figured out why that happens.

This I morning decided to try out the ones I hadn't got around to unpacking just to make sure they work. Put a tank and battery on one and took a hit. But I forgot they come set to 50W. I normally use it with a KFL at 9W. Burned my throat and the wick as well.

I'll be using it with a nautilus mini at 10 watts, I recently tried sub ohming & it just dunt work. The low nicotine an airy draw dunt give me right hit.

Yep...I followed the link you posted and saw that. Now that's a really short DT!

My absolute favorite "flat" ones were made by Smok, in black Teflon IIRC the description of the material. Bought 2 about a year and 1/2 ago, from a vape shop that was closing. Liked them so much I bought another dozen before they closed.

Ended up giving away 8 to friends who really liked them, because I thought I'd be able to find more online! NOT!! Looked for about a year for more, but no luck. Closest I found about 2 months ago, were the ones below at DFWVapor, while placing an order for a few Provari on Clearance. They were made by JoyeTech for use with the eGo-CC. Just ordered 2 to see if they were similar to the Smok ones. They aren't exactly the same plasticy material, but are close enough. The size and shape are identical though! When I saw they had them on Clearance for just a dime about a month ago...I bought 35 more while I could still get them. I mean...how could I resist just 50 cents for each box of 5?
:banana:

So between those, and the ones from FT...I'm set for flat tip DT for life now! :D
Hey there @JCinFLA, does this look like the tip you have there? These are PC but look like same shape I think.

I just get the SS these days. My coffee maker is on it last legs, need a new one.

The Wife builds an Amazon shopping cart, and shares it... each of us then pitch in to complete the purchase :)

Got a couple of Blues coming.

Because of your post last night...I do, too, now! :D

By the way, when I bought mine last night, they showed SS, Gold, and Blue still available.

Well, in January I thought they might be close, so I ordered 3 packs of the multi-colored ones below (same as your linked black ones). But, nope...they're not the same. Thanks though for suggesting them!

The ones I love are longer and really tapered at the end, almost down to nothing...with no blunt "edge" to them for your lips to feel. They also have a small oval hole about the size of a grain of uncooked rice, instead of the round larger hole the ones below have.

But, I'm good now...with the 35 I found/bought, the 6 I already had, and the 3 bags of the clear colored ones I mentioned before from FT, like you have. :)

Thanks, I was going to snag some of these if they were close but sounds like no cigar. I'll probably still pick them up as a close second :(

No! Don't do that. I've just gone back to my receipt for the original ones I love, and instead of being made by Smok, they were made by another company. I've found a website that has them, and some of the JoyeTech ones for the eGo-CC. PM me and I'll give you the links and tell you how they're slightly different from each other.
