Why is my PAX flashing blue?

Your PAX has an on-board accelerometer (motion sensor). If the device sits still for 20 seconds, it goes into standby mode: a lower heat setting around 300F signaled by a pulsing blue LED. This feature saves your battery life and any material in your oven if you walk away.

Inserting a pod into the PAX Era is as easy as clicking it in until contact is made with the battery. You will know that your pod has been successfully inserted because the LED indicator will pulse white, meaning the device is now ready for use.

Pods near empty taste different. Or you could look at the pod & see if there’s anything left. If you can’t see anything, it’s on its last legs or already empty. If you have to up the temp dramatically to get a hit, the pod is almost done.
