Arthritis and the Argos boiler cap
If you wanted something more elegant than a 3D printed lever, Dave "cannonfodder" can probably help you out. Ross can probably help in either case with drawings or at least dimensions. I'd reach out to him in any event. You are probably not the only one who could benefit from the mod

Weber key issue
I've not noticed the grind adjustment ring moving up and down, but I have the black color way. If you're not noticing a difference in the cup, I wouldn't be too alarmed as the spring-loaded bearings will keep the ring in place. Regarding the inner ring, are you talking about the bean feeder ring - the part with

Domobar Jr Hx Temps
I consider the boiler temperature/pressure on an HX machine to primarily control steam power. The brew temperature will depend primarily on the current temperature of the group head and the water in the HX at the moment.
