[Pressure] SunsetsBrew's Journey

I set my pressures back to min7 and epr 3 and for the first 5 hours I had really good sleep, 1.4 AHI with only 1 or 2 events that wernt CA, and then I woke up because my hose had water in it and was making alot of noise.  I also felt decently rested at that time

I emptied it out and as I was trying to go back to sleep I had a whole lot of CA events which I think woke me up in quick succession because I kinda realized I wasnt breathing, I have a zoom here.  I woke up feeling not great after 2 more hours or so.  

I will keep trying to get my EPR down to 1, I will lower to 2 tonight and see if I notice it.

For water in the hose, do you have hose temp and humidity set to Auto?

I'd increase tube temperature up a few clicks, see if rainout appears. If it does, increase it again.

If rainout appears like this, you can drain the hose without getting out of bed. Just slowly incline the hose towards the machine, it'll go back into the humidifier tub.
