      Comparable tea
      Direct recommendation: repeat the session with broken leaf rested 14 days.
      Applies to: Old Orchard 2016 Shou Mei cake / aged white tea storage/breakup test in a setup close to 120 ml porcelain gaiwan.
      Evidence: firsthand use of a comparable aged white tea storage/breakup test with similar parameters.
      Change: repeat the session with broken leaf rested 14 days.
      Expected effect: the cup should move toward see whether breaking and resting improves evenness if that variable is causal.
      Observed result: not tested on this exact setup yet.
      Limitations: My result is from a small number of sessions, so treat it as evidence rather than law.
      Commercial relationship: none.

          Long-term report
          Direct recommendation: repeat the session with broken leaf rested 14 days.
          Applies to: Old Orchard 2016 Shou Mei cake / aged white tea storage/breakup test in a setup close to 120 ml porcelain gaiwan.
          Evidence: measured storage in a similar climate.
          Change: repeat the session with broken leaf rested 14 days.
          Expected effect: the cup should move toward see whether breaking and resting improves evenness if that variable is causal.
          Observed result: brews became much more even from steep to steep.
          Limitations: Water chemistry may change the result, so I would not generalize this to every city.
          Commercial relationship: none.

            This is exactly the kind of note I want in a forum: date, setup, what changed, and what happened. Future searchers can do something with it.

              If you can post the short video mentioned in the opening block, the sound/flow pattern may separate a normal Profitec GO 2025 noise from the fault you are describing.

                Not the exact revision, but I had a closely related setup with the same general failure mode. The thing that saved time was separating the Eureka Mignon Specialita / puck-prep side from the machine side instead of adjusting both together. Similar experience, not proof for your unit.

                  Direct recommendation: repeat the same recipe on a second day.

                  Change: repeat the same recipe on a second day.
                  Expected effect: a repeated result should be easier to trust.

                    Confirmed solution: I found the leak at a seal/connection rather than the boiler itself, replaced the worn sealing part, and pressure-tested before putting the case back on. I am leaving the original numbers above intact so the next person can see what changed.

                      I appreciate that nobody has told you to buy a new kettle yet. Growth.

                            Right, and I’d add one thing. This has my vote. Maybe no subforums initially. One room will show us what people actually want to discuss.

                              I have questions that don’t belong in a generic fitness forum. I would avoid treating every health claim made around yoga as part of dharma.

                                That is a useful way to put it. I am not sure every listener gets the same amount of preparation, though, because familiarity with the raga matters a lot.

                                A person who already knows the melodic turns may hear the tala as foreseen, while a first-time listener may experience it as a new frame.

                                  That is the part I agree with. A separate room would make these conversations easier to find. Beginner questions should not require anybody to announce a spiritual identity.
