Welcome too all the newcomers too 🙂 I can sort that Mr Bean fellow out if needed too 😃

Welcome new members. Mr bean, your writing style is completely entertaining and enchanting... how is this possible if you are a violist? I only assume this because the only poor sod unlucky enough to sit next to a 2nd violist and still find her sultry is... another violist! I was led to believe that the rest of the orchestra use the 2nd viola part as a cure for insomnia. Is it really true that they take longer to burn than violins? Welcome and enjoy our good humored community... I can see that we will very much enjoy chatting to you... All of our new members for that matter.

Didn't your grandad word you up? "It's always the quiet ones" he wisely confided with a wink as I tackled puberty. Anyway, I only gazed from afar, as I sat with my brash comrades on the trumpet desk. But the 2nd viola left her mark. I've nursed a lifelong obsession with the all-girl string quartet, particularly if Stravinsky is in the mix. Check out http://www.escalamusic.com/home for instance. Most Casanovas will head straight for the cellist. But I know better. Viola players do it standing up . . . slowly.

A Brass player... well one might of guessed. Never go for the Cellist... Was it Beecham? Said to the lady Cellist: "maddam, between your legs is something that gives great pleasure.. yet all you can do is scratch at it!" Troubling words thus never a Cellist has crossed my duvet... or stood up for me! Is is true that to get two trumpet players to play in tune you have to shoot one?

Mr_Bean

Let's face it; both. Unless the idiom is jazz; there's much to be said for vibrato.

I think you mean of "tc4 fame" and of course the all new tc4c. Welcome Jim. Love your work.

Nice to hear from everyone. Thanks for the warm welcome. Jim

... and happy that you were fooled into accepting me 😃 I am a little bit of a temperature geek, and the guy behind pidkits.com. Lately, I've been focusing more on new product development than on kit building (very sorry if you are one of the several people who have contacted me recently about buying a Watlow kit). Specifically, I've been building on the TC4 system that Bill Welch created, and am having a great time imagining and testing the possibilities! Progress is being made slowly, but someday soon I hope to make a range of open source PID kits available for controlling espresso machines and roasters. Thanks again for the warm welcome. Jim

Hi JimG. Really great to have you here. Welcome!

G'day. I'm Divey. I'm an old fart who has just found out that you can roast coffee at home with a popcorn popper and I'm hooked. 🙂 I was asked if I would like to join this forum by another member here after swapping several personal messages on another forum. We were both unimpressed after a personal message was accessed, altered and then forwarded on. Very poor form in my books. I'm a lover and not a fighter and I'm here to learn more about the finer art of roasting coffee at home. Pretty simple stuff eh!!

G'Day Divey, welcome to Crema. You've started down a slippery slope, wait till you get hit with upgradeitis, it comes to all of us. 😉
