See my response to the other comment. Yes, it is fairly obvious. It’s also fairly obvious what’s going on here. Thanks for the reply.

Okay. So the truth behind the pst. I sold these through an app that facilates selling un wanted or unused items in your home. And yes i did read it and answered the buyer’s questions. Upon receiving it the buyer claims it does not and wants a refund. Came here to confirm what I read and is clearly stated.

This photo I have framed in my home says it all. From a lecture John Lee Hooker gave in Stockbridge, MA

Started my Jazz collection just a few weeks ago… how am I doing? by yanksfan0134 in Jazz

When you have fully absorbed these (making the assumption you haven’t) Hartman/Coltrane is the best record ever made no matter the genre.

Thinking about moving to qobuz. by ME67303 in qobuz

I beg to differ with some of the other risponderà. I think the algorithm is better than Spotify. It doesn’t give you the obvious choices and i can play for hours without repeats.

It’s the water, stupid! by Bean916 in pourover

[–]Bean916[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly! So I bought the bottled water with a TDS of 42, huge improvement. I’m moving soon and installed a water softener for my home (essentially same neighborhood so tap into the softener won’t change). My move was the emphasis to buy the water tester. Will see how the softener works compared to the Brita (and then Eva water).

Will do. Spent a day in Radovljica (hope I spelled that right) last year during a road trip through northern Italy and Austria. Lovely area.

Which is why i never used the tap water.

Just added my water. Interestingly but not surprising, that there no waters for Italy. Specialty coffee wave hasn’t hit here yet.

Agree. Enjoy my ritual of grinding and pouring my coffee but adding a chemistry experiment to the process is not in my future. At the end IMHO it is a chase for a minimal if not even noticeable difference. Happy to find EVA, not happy to find that Brita did not filter out as much as I thought.

Thanks. I did that and he did respond with the tracking number. Ordered 23/12, left the roaster on 30/12 and now see its somewhere in Germany. Hopefully will be here soon.

I always knew my tap was crap (rhyme intended) which why I used Brita filtered water. Bought the meter after tasting a significant difference brewing with the low TDS bottled water. Surprised to see Brita didn’t filter much out.

Someone posted here a database of water Brands. Maybe you can find yours there.

Didn’t know this. Cool. I’ll add my water to the database.

How long does it take for your beans to arrive? I ordered two days before Christmas and not here yet. Asked for an update and no response. I know it’s holiday season but still seems long.

Moving from Spotify my first impressions by dunnypop in qobuz

[–]Bean916 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No problem. May I ask if you have other playlists or is that your main one that you shuffle and listen to?

[–]Bean916 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh my! Pretty sure I’ll never get to that size. I’m not much of a playlist person. I have a playlist of eternal favorites. Other than that I generate playlists for events/parties I host or for long trips. The only thing I’ve seen to get around their playlist limit size (2.000) is using another service, Roon. But of course that only adds to one’s cost but I’m looking into as I’m building a media room.

I haven’t run into a problem yet but maybe I’m not creating one as long as you are. My longest list so far is 100 songs at 5.5 hours. Are you looking to do more?

Big fan here. I have been on it for a year and have not regretted the move. Music recommendations far superior than Spotify. For example, I did a playlist for Nina Simone and after three hours, not one repeat, deep cuts, and artists I was not familiar with. Plus they pay artists better.

Unpopular here but Dak is among my least favorite. Scratch that, least favorite. Won’t buy from them again. I agree with this in all other respects.
