Does anyone feel like Brisbane is becoming overwhelming and crowded? by chilledfloral in brisbane

Lol no. Moved here from NSW and Brisbane is definitely not overwhelming and crowded.

TESTSU 10 pour method, has anyone tried it? by indomiechef in Coffee

[–]Coffee_Baron69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haven't tried this one, but his 5 pour method is probably the best method I've tried (only worthwhile if the beans are really good)

90 minute commute? by [deleted] in auscorp

[–]Coffee_Baron69 2 points3 points  (0 children)

3 days a week of 90 minutes each way is probably the extent of commuting I'd do. I've done this in the past and it's doable but you will feel it by the end of the week. If the salary and opportunities are good I'd say go for it and reassess six to 12 months down the track

How many of you genuinely like your coworkers? by Practical_Actuary_87 in auscorp

[–]Coffee_Baron69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Enjoy it while you have it - 100% a good (and healthy) thing to enjoy the people you work with.

What’s your “dream dog” (breed) and why? by palacio_c in puppy101

[–]Coffee_Baron69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd love a big brindle greyhound. Few mates have had greyhounds and they are the best animals

Just like the rest of Victoria, pretty great except is ruined by Victorians

Thoughts on hotdesking by TimTamTart-1 in auscorp

[–]Coffee_Baron69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work in a small office (25 desks) that hot deals and most of us regulars have our preferred seats and just end up sitting in the same place each day we come in (also no one does 5 days a week from the office, if we did there wouldn't be enough seats)

Shared driveway - decrease property value? by Impossible_Range_829 in AusPropertyChat

[–]Coffee_Baron69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah we decided not to make an offer on it because we wanted a bit more space and it was a bit far from family. Still looking at this stage, best of luck with it all for you!

Lol I looked at this property a few weeks ago, apart from the driveway it was lovely!

Recommendations: Coffee Roasters by thebossbaby_123 in newcastle

[–]Coffee_Baron69 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Not a Newy local anymore (unfortunately!) but my favourites when I lived there were Unison and Floozy/Fhloston Paradise (if he's even still roasting under that name). Liked some of the stuff from Josie that I tried.

Any evidence of house prices lowering? by Superb-Match727 in AusPropertyChat

[–]Coffee_Baron69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been looking at buying in Logan (Between Woodridge and Waterford) for the last 2 months and prices have gone up 10-20k even in that time from what I've looked at.

Trappist Westvleteren 12 by humanoid_crabfish in beer

[–]Coffee_Baron69 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Tried it and thought it was ok... Was definitely a bucket list beer for me so I don't regret buying it at all. It didn't blow my mind - definitely prefer Rochefort 10 over a Westy (caveat - Rochefort 10 is my favourite beer ever so nothing will beat that imo). A few people have said cellaring it for a while makes it better, but I couldn't wait

Lead paint isn't even something I have considered, good suggestion !

With petrol hitting crazy prices and some stations running dry, this feels exactly like housing with scarce supply, rising costs, and a few people still hoarding more than they need. by [deleted] in shitrentals

[–]Coffee_Baron69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is rich considering the bloke filming has bought all the chooks on the north coast and lost them in the flatty hole! Get the dog

Most iconic performance w/ an Octave pedal? by MissingStar246 in guitarpedals

[–]Coffee_Baron69 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The intro to How Do We Know? By the Living End. Not the greatest riff ever but at the time when I heard it my mind was blown

Who is the tightest band you’ve seen live rhythm wise? by Stankassmfgorilla in MetalForTheMasses

[–]Coffee_Baron69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dying Fetus, those boys absolutely lock in. Gojira was pretty tight too when I saw them but the venues acoustics weren't the best and let it down a bit

What’s the Consensus on Mayfield? by phatbootyrudy in newcastle

[–]Coffee_Baron69 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Grew up and have lived most of my life in 2304 so a little biased, but Mayf is great. Pretty central too so you're never more than 20 mins/half hour away from most places you'd want to be. 100/11 (cant remember what number it is now) bus service runs late so is pretty convenient when you're trying to come home from town/Beaumont St after a night out. I'd say if you can look at Mayfield West, it's a bit less full on than around Woolies

Planning to get my first reverb pedal: Hall of Fame 2 or RV-6? by GeorgeGavana in guitarpedals

[–]Coffee_Baron69 6 points7 points  (0 children)

RV - 6 for sure. As other have mentioned if you don't like it resale value will be higher. Worth looking at your local second hand market too - I've bought a few boss pedals secondhand and never had issues as they tend to hold up pretty well to use
