It tasted like chocolate Chocolate huh? I might start drinking coffee if it tasted like chocolate 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WillyBob Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 that was 20yrs+ ago. they are growing coffee on Kauai. Maybe the roast ... wasn't Kona. Sorry change up a question based on ignorance In the direct drive turntables is a large diameter "outrunner" brushless motor being used? With the platter as the "armature" outrunners tend to "cog" ["click" from one magnet to the next] but I am thinking the diameter would smooth it out I used teeny out runners in my r/c. Some were 2gm. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is no clicking to be heard. As for Kauai, growing coffee is more recent than 20 years, but I am not totally sure about that. Coffee is not native, that is for sure, but neither are pineapples nor macadamia nuts. Anyway, it's a little more complicated than that, but ongoing coffee operations on Kauai are more recent after disregarding the early days of failure. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coffee_production_in_Hawaii 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WillyBob Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 Hi Oldtimer They were just starting on coffee in the early 90's. Iniki raised hell, but the coffee survived. It wasn't very good, though. $4/lb says it all I was on Kauai from '90 - '98 cogging on an outrunner motor would most like show as flutter, if my terminology is correct. Wow is slower [?] 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldtimer Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 Yeah, iniki was heading straight for us until deciding that razing kauai would be more fun. The coffee there has gotten better over the years. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WillyBob Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 I have my own personal 9/11. Oldtimer, would I be correct in assuming they are using some manner of brushless motor in turntables now? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow is slower [?] The advantage of direct drive is less wow and flutter, or was at the time. The drawback was hum and perhaps rumble. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldtimer Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 I don't exactly know about brushless. I have a feeling (not researched) that the Technics tables of the late 70's and early 80's were brushless, and utilized a single magnet design. I would suspect my old table from then would have worn out by now otherwise. Admittedly I have never even thrown any lubrication oil into it for its entire life. The damn thing refuses to break! It still spins as steady as the first day. I have replaced brushes in the electrical systems of a few cars though. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If your water is not good enough to make coffee what are you doing drinking it? Seattle water is so good, I would never filter it. In eastern Co. and all of southern Az. Yez gots ta run da water through a softener. A reverse osmosis unit is a must post softening, to take the edge off. Ya live where the work is, and adjust to be happy. Colorado Springs and New York City have the best water I've ever had, but ya work with what you've got. Kinda like room treatments. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
