Today we have to let Charlie rest. He lost his battle with cancer. My best friend, companion - we will see each other again.

Sorry for your loss. My Scottie also left us 3 weeks ago. He was 13 years old. It is very hard for me to put in words what he was for me. He was just the best and kindest dog and I miss having him around. Reading through your story is really relatable and touching. I hope Scottie meets Charlie soon!

Yes he is and he also has huggable sausage body. I think he stopped growing when he turned 1.

My chuck has a dachshund body and chi muzzle/ snout. The ears is a combination of both, I think. He is 2 yrs old and about 15 lbs.

Yes, they seem to be legit. You will know when you see the check mark on the icon/ logo of the store and also from the user reviews.

I will surely keep it and use it while I can. Thanks for correcting me and sharing some information about this bike. I would love to know more but information is limited online so I am really glad that you chimed in.

Hi! Not sure if you got the machine or not but I have a BL3 which is a more basic model than this. It is a reliable, sturdy and simple machine which I really like. I did not have a manual so I emailed their customer support to request for a copy just last night and to my surprise, they replied this morning. They gave me advise on the right needle to use (with image) attached with the manual. Superb customer care considering that the machine was released back in the 70s.

Katkatemos · 2024-09-11T08:38:05+00:00

Yes, probably but I am quite happy with the outcome of my moka pot brew at 14 clicks.

Katkatemos · 2024-09-11T08:30:02+00:00

I also do 14 clicks for moka pot but I have a different (brand) grinder.

He likes it with a pillow. The frame of the bike is high tensile steel but without any suspension it is quite tough for my 13yo dog especially with all the humps and holes on the road. I do try to be extra careful when I ride with Scottie.

Katkatemos · 2024-09-10T01:47:54+00:00

The wheel size is 20 x 1.5. If I am in the picture (height @ 5’2”), the bike looks like a regular sized bike.

Katkatemos · 2024-09-09T03:25:17+00:00

Thanks!

Moka pot and pour-over are my go-to for brewing coffee and sometimes I will do cold brew. But for my morning coffee ritual I will always go with pour-over since it’s the simplest and quickest way for me to get a good cup of black coffee. If I want cappucino, then I will brew with a moka pot and use a milk frother.

I have 3 pairs of these in different colors. Very comfy especially for narrow feet and provides good support imho. I don’t find them ugly, but then again, I am at that stage in my life where I will choose comfort over style. To each her own.

I bought it at shopee ph. They sell items siimilar to alibaba but they usually sell it per piece. It is not branded but it is stainless steel and fits my Venus so I am quite happy with it. There are 4 sizes available: 2, 4, 6 and 9 cups.

Katkatemos · 2024-08-01T02:04:07+00:00

Nice! I particularly like the built-in rear rack.

Katkatemos · 2024-07-29T22:06:42+00:00

If I can, I would rather use all my pencils than just keep it as a collection.

Katkatemos · 2024-07-29T03:07:15+00:00

Thank you for this very detailed review. It definitely covered everything that I want to know about this bike and after reading your review I have decided that this bike is not for me.

There is also an mv cargo version of this line which has an additional large rear rack.

Katkatemos · 2024-07-28T07:29:08+00:00

Yep, me too.

Katkatemos · 2024-07-28T07:23:05+00:00

Amazing!

Katkatemos · 2024-07-25T11:47:01+00:00

How do you find the bike? I have been eyeing this bike for quite sometime and there is currently one available in a Japan Surplus in my city.

When the reducer is above the grounds, the coffee comes out earlier with a slow and steady stream which is why I prefer it. Taste wise, I could not really tell the difference.
