Temp setting does stay the same for me.

Mine does the same. Since I usually want it to run at 60W this is not really a problem for me.
Occasionally it seems to think I've changed the atty when I haven't.

Cheapie balance off eBay. As long as it'll do 0.01g reliably and won't auto power off you're sorted. The one I use cost about 6 quid delivered.
I have a proper microgram balance in the loft that's at least 90 years old (My father's uncle and his brother were both Ph.D. chemists). By the time I'd set up a 5 ton spring mounted granite table and the suitable wind shields and cleaned all the corrosion off the knife edges, I'd be better starting again. I still have access to balances that cost more than my house and checked the cheapie. It's fine for what i need. TBH repeatability is more important than accuracy.

I still use syringes for mixing by weight - it is a simple way to add very small amounts. I just pour into the bottle till I'm close then top up with a syringe.

I've read that nic in VG lasts better. I've heard from others that vehemently disagree and say that nic in PG keeps better (In a freezer). I used to be a chemist but have no opinion on this.
My nic lives in my freezer.
The nic in PG is bright pink - the nic in VG is colourless. Both came from the same supplier - the nic in PG 6 months after the nic in VG.
Take from this what you will.
The plural of anecdote is NOT data...

It didn't arrive today though it allegedly was in Derby yesterday so I reckon it hasn't left HK yet. If it arrives on Monday I'll be needing medical attention.

It means it is a proper balancing charger with a limited discharge capability (For heat sinking reasons). Balancing multiple cells can be an extremely slow process. Balance charging six (2400mAh) 18650s can take about ten hours. Better chargers with a greater ability to sink heat from the discharging that goes on can do this a lot faster.
For probably about a third of the time it will be drawing well under 500mA.
Or in other words it says little or nothing about the capacity of the pack.

Coffee extracts are probably not a very good idea though I've tried it myself. Keep the temperature below 90C when extracting or you'll get the nasty burnt coffee flavour.
There is quite a lot of oil in coffee which has a very large amount to do with the flavour.
But it is not remotely a good idea to inhale that.
I can think of ways round that - but they involve lab glassware and distillation under vacuum. And these days that stuff is a very, very long way from cheap.
Look up ultracentrifuges (Which cost the sort of money usually spent on houses) for other ways of getting the oils out.

I got exactly the same amount. I was rather startled when a box about half the size of one of my (large) dogs arrived. I reckon if I rework daily and live to 150, I might use all of it...

Make a squonker at that price with a DNA200 in it and I'll tell the bank to go forth and multiply...
