Cuir_Beluga They look brilliant Steve, I might grab some. The bag I am on at the moment failed and I just folded it in half and popped it in a zip lock bag.
GeekKopi ok, so looks like the fridge electrics killed the new compressor too. seems its shorting somewhere. I threw in the towel (my wife did). The tradie didn't ask for any money at the end as he couldn't resolve it. now that is impressive even though I offered him recompense for his time, So tomorrow the postman (delivery truck) is bringing us a new 600L side by side fridge.

Even when the zip lock fails on my one way valve bags, one of these in between the valve and the failed seal is air tight. http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Kitchen-Bag-Sealing-Stick-Storage-Clip-Rod-Sealer-Reusable-Fresh-Food-SYD-Post-/281611747121?_trksid=p2141725.m3641.l6368 Great Steve! Thanks... Ordering now!
Cuir_Beluga Bugger Geek, it was worth a shot though. I was opening the oven door last night when it came off in my hand. Hubby patched it up but it probably won't be long before we need to go and buy a new one.

I got my fridge $300 cheaper than other places. And as always. There is something wrong with it. Noticed a small dent on one of the doors. Getting a replacement delivered Monday but until then I'll be using this as it's been hard 3 days without one.
Cuir_Beluga We do have one kind of close-ish, we'll check it out. I didn't know they sold appliances, thanks 🙂.

Big mistake not doing it on my other fridge, the cost to repair it wasn't worth it (electrics were fried) and the mrs was bugging me for a larger one so it all worked out (not) [emoji26]
Brett_H Good-looking fridge! Has it also got a PID? My freezer has a PID. So does my espresso machine. I'm having one fitted also to the downstairs toilet... It's the way of the future.... PIDs.. I love em! You can change the numbers on the front to suit your mood! :stir I reckon my new heat pump has one too but there's a fine line between tweakabiliy and legionella! P.s I've had obnoxious on toast for lunch! It's a great looking fridge!

It's a great looking fridge! hi Brett yes it's sporting a dual PID as well as a fuzzy logic controller to adjust temp for both freezer and fridge automatically based on how much is inside. It also purges my steam wand automatically when I take the milk out the fridge and flushes the group head.

Love.it :rofl: Mate of mine has a new fridge also with full ice and cold water on demand. My wife insists that our fridge has no fancy features. She teckons that the more stuff it has, the less real-estate internally/$. One day...

My response was $150 for a plumber and another $500 for that feature vs a water pitcher and a couple ice trays for $20. Nipped that I the butt real quick. That $650 'savings' can go towards a bean roaster. The nerve of that woman [emoji41]
Lacehim Not coffee related but I just received a nice HP Microserver G8. Currently setting up unraid v6 for it. [emoji1]
Cuir_Beluga Yesterday I received 3 x 500gms bags of beans from MyCuppa. I'm just finishing off the last of the Roasters Choice Colombian and then I can crack these babies :coffee2:.

Cuir_Beluga Hi Geek, I have the Panama Boquete, the Costa Rica Tarrazu and the Brazilian Cambara. I am on my first cup of the Panama now, it is fairly chocolate dominant and creamy but it is a very mild coffee if that makes sense :🙂.
