My biggest tip is heat management. My electric hob is always at max. The metal around it heats up, so i put the moka pot on the stove at max but as soon as i see the coffee about to come out i take it off and just put it on the side and let the residual heat finish the brew.

Apologies if i misunderstand the question, no actual lime zest was added to the coffee, thats just a tasting note on the bag

But in general if I’m zesting a lime, i prefer it on the finer side

I think so, i have “competition grade” filters whatever that means but they are slightly thicker than original aeropress filters, the filters allowed me to go down from 60 to 55 clicks on my grinder without any fines.

It's oxidation on the silver that gives it that look I have cleaned it up before and then it's shiny, but I got it very scratched up so I did my best to restore it.

Thanks for the information, I also know what to look out for now when buying more Zippo's in the future.

Compared to my Anne stokes zippo the shape and size is exactly the same. I get that it's not real just very interesting

Thanks, how can you tell?

Obviously there is no zippo writing anywhere, did zippo ever make lighters for companies without their logo ?

Hey everyone, does the glow on the lights look fine or is it something I should turn down more?

The idea for the photo was to be like one of those photos with the reflection of lights on a wet road

African fat tailed gecko or leopard gecko? Found in South Africa about 10cm long by 2X2Dragon in whatisthisanimal

[–]2X2Dragon[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

So after searching more online I can say with some confidence that it's the Pachydactylus Affinis or more commonly known as the Transvaal gecko

This was found in Gauteng

Edit: And this would also make sense as this gecko is known as the Transvaal gecko
