As long as you can slacken the element off a small bit you will be fine. It's a nice mug to add to the range for anyone already printing mugs. Prints much the same.... might need an extra 20 secs due to being a bit thicker.

I always thought for some reason that you had to have different press for different size mugs. Which mugs would fit a Geo knight,

It tends to be trial and error for different presses/mugs. Just need to hope someone else does the trial bit first and tells you what will fit. Basically, if you can have your press so that a 10/11oz mug is loose inside then a stein will probably fit. The smaller mugs you would need a different element to swap.

I can't fit El Grande mugs in my mug press (although I could just fit the previous version of the BMS stein). Even when using mug wraps, I have to back them off all the way - so much so that I take the screws out. So don't assume that an El Grande will fit in your mug press.
