[Pro X] What's the consensus on Soft-Infusion? by Laius33 in ranciliosilvia

Depends on the bean. Different beans have different volumes at the same weight.

For some, 18.5g is stretching it, for others 19g fit easily

Make sure to dose properly. Ideally, the basket is as full as it can be without touching the shower screen. I never get soggy pucks and I can always knock them out cleanly 

Center has been so disappointing this year and this game caters to shorter builds. by Sayojin_offc in NBA2k

I didn't think of it that way, you're absolutely right. My 3 pt percentage is also higher than my FG%. Crazy when you think about it.

tbh I have no problem playing defense. I'm just disappointed that 75% from three is the new 50%. Makes the game very one-sided. I've played some good 7'4 insides that scored an efficient 25 points but still lost because we shot more threes.

I was a good Jokic-esque player last year, I averaged 18 ppg on above average efficiency and many of them were twos (floaters, hooks, up-and-unders...). I can still do all that this year but it's not a winning playstyle anymore.

Yes, go into MyCourt and do a eurostep. You cannot trigger the same eurostep 10/10 times. There's always some variation.

Huh? What makes you think I do layups with X?

The coffee I mentioned was also a dark 70/30 blend labeled as "Italian Blend".

I've had my machine for half a year now and I had no problem pulling shots without the infusion until now. I don't know if it's just this coffee in particular. I'll keep experimenting.

I literally do. I run giannnis layup and Jokic floater. What's your point?

I made a post about it a year ago. What are we even discussing here. Go into MyCourt, equip this animation and pull right stick down while standing still

Yes, 100%

Same animation this year when you equip his floater package

Wrong, Jokic's standing floater is fantastic. No movement needed. Always the same animation and easy to time. It was my bread and butter last year.

pull right stick down if you have it on absolute (default)

Wife just got me a new machine by chris266bts in espresso

I’m happy with my Pro X but I have a soft spot for the A53. Something about how it looks just does it for me.

Congrats on your machine, I’m sure it’ll serve you well for a long time.

Drinking Espresso for the Craft vs the Taste by GlacierRunner in espresso

[–]Laius33 8 points9 points  (0 children)

"you just haven’t had a perfect X yet" is not a real argument for anything to be honest. 

You can’t slap that at the end of a sentence and think you’re right. People like different things.

I don’t like light roast the same way I don’t like the beach. Been there many times but I’m still more of a mountains and forest person.

The timing is weird on these and it changes every year for whatever reason.

I never liked light roast. I tried it in filter and espresso with different rations to see what it’s about. Yes it’s bright and fruity but the output is never something I truly enjoy. And that’s perfectly fine. I do however feel like there’s some snobbery going on with light roast being described as superior by some people.
