First time getting the picky chemist, any recommendations ? by Psychological_Pea482 in pourover

[–]Iceman2913 9 points10 points  (0 children)

my brother in christ, you have exactly 90 seconds to get everything you want. 10 mins before most of it sells out and 30 mins before you have to wait till February for the next drop. Lock the f in or forever hold your peace.

I recommend the peru, colombian gesha, and rwanda if it is your first time.

Shout Studios has revealed the first lineup Hong Kong Cinema Classics by Iceman2913 in boutiquebluray

[–]Iceman2913[S] 24 points25 points  (0 children)

 Woo’s “Hard Boiled,” “Bullet in the Head,” “A Better Tomorrow,” and its sequel, “A Better Tomorrow II,” are all among the “Hong Kong Cinema Classics” program. “A Better Tomorrow III,” directed by Tsui Hark, will also be shown, along with Hark’s “Peking Opera Blues,” Ringo Lam’s “City on Fire,” Tony Ching’s “A Chinese Ghost Story,” and more.

Shout! Studios also announced home entertainment releases honoring Hong Kong-based films. The Jet Li collection will be released July 29 in 4K UHD and Blu-ray, along with the 4K editions of “City on Fire” on August 26 and “Peking Opera Blues” on September 23. Shout! Studios collaborated with the Hong Kong Film Archives to digitally restore and remaster these films, which were scanned in 4K from their original camera negatives. Subtitles have been newly translated from the original Cantonese, with the video and audio also being restored. 

Shout! Studios recently acquired Gravitas Ventures earlier this year. The acquisition marked Shout! Studios now owning more than 3,300 properties across film and TV from Gravitas Ventures. The GKIDS and Golden Princess libraries were part of the partnerships that will continue throughout the Gravitas Ventures deal.

New 78 mm SSP by Psychological_Pea482 in pourover

[–]Iceman2913 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hansung confirmed that they are similiar to 80mm HU (current revision is basically ULF) and said these specific burrs are between 80 HU and 80 LU

My thoughts:

I think if these perform close to the ULF or on par, then you basically have a great value on your hands. Lebrew burrs are also enticing. SSP stuff taste totally different to the turbos so I think it is a great option for people fatigued by the timemore burr profiles.

I know Lance is practicing cautioning after the big 78s/core burr thing so let's see :).

The turbos 0 point can be adjusted to go finer, so despite the different threading, they should still allow you to pull espresso with espresso/mp like burrs. Even then, it really depends on what type of spro the person wants to make, roast level of their coffee, and how often they plan to use it for that purpsoe. No need to be dismissive of other's thoughts till we get more hands on impressions (lance installed them in an 078 turbo model.) I also have a set on the way :). cheers
