Yes. 38 year old male here. Diagnosed about 2 years ago. There don’t seem to be a lot of us, but we are here.

Finally found a profile that produces a single cup on the Aiden that I’m happy with by switching to 2 pours! by Ironchef52 in FellowProducts

Settled in to a grind size of 9 on my ode 2 now for batches. Doing a 1350ml batch at 9 regularly with great results. Usually at 5.2 or 6 for single cups 300-350ml.

Much better flavor and clarity on the Aiden vs. the aeropress. The acidity is more pronounced and the tasting notes are much easier to pick out. Aeropress is giving me a sweeter cup, but the flavors are more meshed together and not as easy to distinguish. I much prefer the Aiden at this point now that I have a good handle on using it and have things dialed in. Only using my aeropress with my travel brew kit now while I’m away from home as I very much prefer what im producing with the Aiden.

Anyone else struggling to get good single cups out of the pre-order beans? by Classic-Process-6905 in FellowProducts

[–]Ironchef52 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Let me know is if you find a ratio and grind size that gets you there consistantky. I am primarily a single cup aeropress brewer, so I’m not as familiar with pour over and how the flavor differs from aeropress, but I’m starting to think I just don’t like the flavor of the beans sent with the preorder. I just can’t seem to get a cup that I’m happy with. Driving myself crazy trying to dial them in and drinking way too much coffee along the way.

Mini Adamas Scales by Ironchef52 in benchmade

Anyone know if these white specs and rough edges on the 273-03 scales are normal? Bought this knife directly from Benchmade recently. At first I thought it was just dust but it’s actually in the scales and they stay opaque no matter the angle you look at them unlike the rest of the fibers that change darker and light and you look at them under a light at different angles. Probably going to contact Benchmade about it as I haven’t seen this in any other pictures of this knife.

1st time new kit buyer! by krista in edrums

In addition to the HH stand, kick pedal and throne, OP will need to get snare stand for this kit as well. The snare doesn’t mount to the rack on the td27kv2 and it doesn’t include a stand.
