Krups Espresso Mini Machine Model 963/A Coffee Cappuccino Maker - Tested!
Mar 17, 2021
Great Coffee/Espresso and Nary Indestructible
This is my second Krups 963 expresso maker. The first lasted for 27 years and I took it around the world with me from the North Slope of Alaska to Micronesia. It makes excellent coffee and fine espresso/cappuccino. Near indestructible, it survived Typhoon Soudelor which leveled the apartment I was in. I fished this thing out of a pile of debris with nary a scratch (I did lose the grate). Alas, it finally said Good Night recently and I'll take the same, again, thank you... Some observations:
- You're going to lose the air tube/restrictor unless you are very careful
- Clean the steamer as soon as you're done using it as it will cake up with hardened cream/milk
- Pack the coffee down hard... It builds pressure while making hotter coffee.
- Clean the thing with white vinegar once every couple of months. Run it through as you would water - sans coffee, of course.
You won't regret buying this unit.

BEAUTIFUL FISHER CZ 20 QUICKSILVER UNDERWATER METAL DETECTOR

Two ton Tilly will do it all
This is a well designed, all around detector that can be used in Fresh or salt water, on sand, and pretty much anywhere else above or below the water. Ground balancing is a breeze and target depth is between 8-10 inches using the 8" coil. It rarely misses a target above ground, and discrimination between metals is excellent. I live on the Island of Saipan - the site of a major WWII battle - and unexploded ord. is everywhere. This thing is so accurate that when I hit a live shell, I can tell from the change in tone which end the fuse is on. It has also found me coins, old weapons, gold, and other stuff. Under water the thing works great but is cumbersome. It's big and it's heavy - it is for this reason alone that I give it 4 stars instead of 5. The upside to this weight is that it can take repeated hits and keep on coming back. The thing is built like a Sherman Tank. The one weak spot is the plastic mounting slide on top of the handle. If you use it in demanding conditions, like mountainous jungle, it's going to let go. I always use the belt clip now and am glad I do.
I'd buy it again in a heart beat.
