From the sound of it. You might have wanted to share a "No Tell Motel" room with him.

Ordered $80 of Nespresso capsules (all Ristretto-type) along with a descaling kit the week before Thanksgiving since I had pulled the machine out from the back of the cupboard. Tried the descaling kit but no water was pulling from the reservoir. I finally went at it today and took the whole thing apart despite not having the stupid oval pan bit I ordered last week which still hasn't arrived. Needle nose pliers did the trick but were a pain.

Tried everything to get the stupid water to flow. Finally I pulled out the brake bleeding vacuum pump and pulled nearly 20 psi before clearing the blockage. Thing works like a champ now

I also picked up a new kitchen appliance. I have a small (3qt) Instant Pot Ultra that I really like but just don't use that often. I just got the Instant Pot Air Fryer (8qt) and let me tell you, it is amazing. I made up enough dry rub for about 20 lbs of wings last night. It will be getting lots of use

So those air fryers are the real deal? I think I'll get one.... I love wings!

Yea. I absolutly love mine. Cosori 5.8qt model. It's a glorified convection oven so hot hair circulates more freely than in a stagnant traditional oven. Things def come out crisper, but it's still a drastic difference from true fried foods.

Truth!

I finally got the Yoke off the pinion of the truck only to find out I need one more seal. Crazy AAM 11.5 rearend has a triple seal pinion seal. One that goes on the Yoke and then a normal pinion seal in the rear end housing. What a pain in my butt. Got to do the rear brake pads when I get finished with this.

Both my microwave oven and full size oven also have convection function. It's the best way to cook bacon

The air fryer is on another level though. As long as you give space among the food for the air to circulate it is perfection every time. A full size convection oven gives you more room of course, but the air fryer gives better results from what I can tell.

Compared to a deep fryer, I agree it's meh. But a bunch of stuff that can be deep fried still comes out great in the air fryer. Just different.

Completely agree. Especially for wings and fries.
