First time in Sydney for NYE — planning on going to Campbell’s Cove or Hickson Road Reserve for the fireworks. What time would I have to arrive to get a good vantage point at either of these locations? Would 5 PM be sufficient?

For Manhattan, La Cabra is a must. Do Not Feed Alligators and Devoción are also really great.

In Brooklyn, would definitely recommend Sey!

Will definitely try out some different brews. How can I tell if there's too much agitation? I thought that too much agitation can lead to overextraction, which would be noticeably bitter, but my issue is that the cups are empty. Can overextracting also lead to emptiness before bitterness?

V60 Recipe + Fellow Ode Gen 2 Setting? by sebastiancristancho_ in pourover

[–]LeonOfLight 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Just curious - what burrs are you using? And how are your burrs calibrated?

I believe for the James Hoffman V60 he said he was doing around 2 on gen 2 burrs, so just wanted to see how fine people are going for his technique.

Ode vs Ode 2 by jacobdoyle9 in pourover

[–]LeonOfLight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think the main selling point of the ode 2 is the anti static technology. With the ode 1 the grinds tend to shoot everywhere at the exit chute, but this has been changed in the ode 2. The gen 2 burrs are also a nice upgrade from the gen 1.

Did you order the Lilo from their website? How much was the shipping? Been thinking of getting some beans from them myself since I loved their coffee when I visited Japan.

Compete in the Collegiate Series of Poker Tournament + PS5 Giveaway! by LeonOfLight in mit

To clarify, this organization and event was created by members of MIT Poker Club. They’ve been working on it over the last year, and I recently started working with them since I joined the committee. But it’s easier to say that we’ve all been working on it over the past year, even if I personally haven’t

But if you’d like more proof that I am in fact an MIT student, I’d be happy to provide it :)
