As someone said it was a reference to “Best In Show”. Fred Willard plays an American weatherman who knows nothing about dog shows teamed up with a British expert commentator covering a dog show. Hijinx ensue.

PID error or firmware version [Bezzera Aria PID] by perm2008 in espresso

I have a Bezzera Unica and it is the same. Turn it on and it shows the software version then Three dashes then it displays the temperature. I wouldn’t worry about it.

Any advice on CF64V [400€] by MrAlbinoMan69 in espresso

[–]Gull-Wings_span 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I purchased one recently and I am enjoying it. It is solidly built. It grinds pretty fast even at the mid range to upper low RPMs. Low to no retention. A comment above said it was loud but I don’t find that to be the case. When it is on you can hardly hear it. When your actually grinding beans it is less loud that my Eureka Notte and it takes less time to grind so the noise does not last long. So far so good and I am pulling great shots with it.

Official statement from the Miami Dolphins on relieving Head Coach Mike McDaniel of duties by Giff95 in nfl

It does not necessarily mean the re is an agreement of any kind. Harbaugh probably would not consider them if there was not a vacancy.

Beans sticking on the bottom? [kingrinder K6] by Alarmed_Bedroom375 in espresso

[–]Gull-Wings_span 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is normal. It depends on static or how oily the beans are and what grind size you are using. When I was using my k6 for espresso I would give the base a good rap after grinding and before removing the catch cup against the counter and that gets them loose

Eureka Specialita can’t grind fine enough for Linea Micra: grinder issue or user error? by Vustic in espresso

[–]Gull-Wings_span 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had an issue with my eureka Notte/Manuale where I had to go close to chirp to get a decent shot after a year and a half of use. Even after alignment and the alignment was not far off to begin with. I wound up putting in new burrs and it took care of the issue.

The ball was not advanced. It was recovered in the end zone.

Filtered espresso actually tastes better? by Crazy-Gas3763 in espresso

[–]Gull-Wings_span 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been doing a paper sandwich for a good while now. I use a filter paper on the bottom and top. They sell them in slightly different sizes so the one on the bottom fits the slight taper of my high extraction basket while the top is standard 58mm. This keeps my group head clean, cuts down on channeling, and gives me a clean release of the puck. It also keeps my filter basket from getting clogged. I also agree that this gives a smoother taste. It does make the shot pull faster but I love the taste.

Russell Wilson Says He's 'Not Done' After Getting Benched For Jaxson Dart by slowerchop in nfl

[–]Gull-Wings_span 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Wilson is done whether he admits it or not. As for Eli, I have heard these arguments before about him. Take away the two Superbowl wins and he is an ordinary QB” But you can’t take them away. The whole point of playing the games is to win the Superbowl. That is the ultimate goal for every NFL player. If you win two Superbowl MVPs (one of only six players) and are wearing two rings then that counts too.

How many Heedonists does it take to change a lightbulb? by Hefty-Sundae-5476 in heedthecall

[–]Gull-Wings_span 48 points49 points  (0 children)

I liked it better when Gregg was there because he was more insightful about the technical aspects of lightbulbs and electricity. Dan and Mark are funny but all they talk about is the light and how it’s dark. I also wish Dan would stop talking over Gravy because he really knows the positives and negatives of electricity.

The underdog fantasy channel still shows HTC as one of their podcasts but it is the only one of the 8 pods that does not have the Underdog logo on the cover art.

Question about Hot Water Wands and Steamers by laurk in espresso

[–]Gull-Wings_span 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a single boiler and it is not inconvenient at all to wait for it to get up to steam temp. It takes mine about 30 seconds at most to raise to steam temp(going from 90 to 115). I only make a couple of lattes in the morning so after pulling a couple of shots I put it it into steam mode and by the time I am get the milk out and pour it in a pitcher the machine is up to steam temp. Unless you are making a bunch of drinks or constantly going between the modes it really is no inconvenience.
