Gotta plus 1 that Rick. While I enjoy the convenience of the Ody in long/large mode, I too feel the flavor in the original shorty mode is tops on flavor. Since I am more about the flavor than TH or most any other aspect, I therefore use short mode 90% of the time.
Since I am retired and pretty much home bound, refilling isn't an issue for me. I haven't really messed with the "medium mode" some have come up with but for my use, if the taste stays fairly close to short mode, the extra couple of ml would allow me to go most days with just a single refill during the day.
I will admit I have never tried the short version with my UFS but again, anything that gives a better flavor is worth the slight extra effort for me.
