Just use a capsule machine like NESPRESSO that should be available worldwide or similar. samll amount of coffee - european style - and big cup should solve the problem

Instead of trying all sorts of constructions to avoid piling, just use a stainless steel chain and your problem is gone.

Teak contains oil and should not be varnished or coated at all. My boat is wooden and 51 years old and its in prime condition. For the outside, the deck is left as is and gets gray. We only clean with salt water. railings, doors and outside panels we oil with teak oil which gives a perfect...

I fail to see the problem. A generator on board should be operational and if its operational there should be no restrictions in using it. To heat up water from your house bank via the inverter makes no sense at all. Your batteries are your safety in case you develop a problem with power...

I consider water sytems with just a pump that has an internal pressure switch very unreliable. Additionally the pump keeps turning off and on whenever water is used, is subject to unnecessary wear and in the end is unreliable. You really want a systen that sstable, reliable and easy to maintain...

We also have the Problem of loads switching on automatically like heaters, chargers and also the water heater. In my opinion ist not a good solution to start automating as things get too compley for our kind of boats and automation also fails from time to time and gives you additional problems...

When an engine runs, it sucks in so much fresh air that no further ventilation of the ER is needed. On a diesel the blowers are only needed to cool the engines and the ER after shut down. Since all ER have a light smell that you dont want in the cabins you want a lower pressure in the engine...
