Hey guys—it's been a minute. In this one I’m back in the listening room talking about what’s been going on (yeah, the beard is staying) and then I jump into a quick, real-world review of the Humminguru water dispenser attachment. I’ve been using the original Humminguru for a while, and before this add-on you had to manually pour water into the reservoir. It worked, but it was a pain in the ass—water could seep down the sides, get on the base, and I never felt like my surfactant was getting pushed through the filter as efficiently as it should. With the dispenser, it’s basically click-and-go. It’s wireless, charges via USB-C, has a light so I can actually see how clean the water is, and it dispenses the right amount for 12-inch and 7-inch records (plus manual mode). After cleaning about 10–12 older, dirtier records, I genuinely noticed better purging through the filter and a deeper clean—especially with surfactant. It’s around $150, not sponsored, and for Humminguru owners (original or Nova) I think it’s worth it. Then I head to the man cave for recent pickups: finishing up my Rush run, a killer Raw Power 2LP with both mixes, a stunning Brazilian Superunknown, an original UK (’76) with inserts, an original Sub Pop 100 comp, and a couple Japanese Judas Priest pressings while I’m back on a metal kick.
