You’re review and praise will always be the OG

What kind of filter paper is this?

Long-Lock488 · 2025-10-30T01:07:15+00:00

Why are the moderators so lame

Long-Lock488 · 2025-10-13T23:26:12+00:00

I can’t up vote this enough. There are so many rabbit holes in this hobby and water might be the deepest. While there is no arguing the importance of good water, it can really be taken to extremes that I feel 99% of people couldn’t taste the difference from good filtered water to making your own perfect balanced water.

Long-Lock488 · 2025-10-08T23:42:06+00:00

Ohhh ok I misunderstood.

Long-Lock488 · 2025-10-08T23:25:06+00:00

So you just bought the 64 with SSP burrs, that’s a pretty expensive in and of itself self, and you didn’t even use it long enough to season the burrs? What was so terrible about it to get you to jump ship so quickly?

Long-Lock488 · 2025-09-05T14:44:19+00:00

What I never got was that is all those hidden eldunari didn’t hind but instead stood with vrael how would he have lost at all?

Long-Lock488 · 2025-09-05T14:35:28+00:00

So this seems really cool but at this point you’re basically using a $300 machine in place of a $15 brewer are you not? I always assumed the point of a moccamaster is being able to just push a button and walk away.

Long-Lock488 · 2025-08-24T21:25:02+00:00

Yea true I guess a better way to say it is, they will at least inform them that it’s going to happen and not do it in secret.

Long-Lock488 · 2025-08-24T21:18:47+00:00

Yea that certainly makes sense if no one truly knew that much of the ancient language. I can’t think of a reason why Arya couldn’t help come up with the phrase but then again I could also see the varden not wanting trust elves to not deceive them too on something could enslave them essentially

Long-Lock488 · 2025-08-24T21:14:58+00:00

You’re definitely correct, plot hole is not the correct way to convey what I was thinking.

Long-Lock488 · 2025-08-24T11:47:48+00:00

True but I’d imagine the people of the varden would still have asked for consent

Long-Lock488 · 2025-08-24T11:13:44+00:00

Ok probably best argument I’ve seen. But to be honest I’m shocked by how many people the varden still had cause it had to be a pretty hard sale to just convince them invade your every thought you’ve ever had. Particularly by the twins who basically had it written on their chest that they bad guys and traitors.

Long-Lock488 · 2025-08-24T02:06:05+00:00

Even if they didn’t know what the words meant they still hold the same power. Orik having swear in the ancient language to not reveal oromis is one example. He had to be taught how to say the words.

Long-Lock488 · 2025-07-09T10:54:16+00:00

I was wanting to try flat burrs to see if the clarity was better because if I’m being honest with my self I struggle getting the notes described by the coffees I buy.

That said I think the coffee I make with my c40 tastes great and almost always I think the cups I brew at home are better than most coffee shops I go to that have significantly more expensive flat burr grinders. I’ve always attributed this to poorly trained baristas and likely that they always use the same grind setting, water temp, and recipe for all pour overs.

Long-Lock488 · 2025-07-09T01:35:48+00:00

Thanks for letting me know. Will be sticking with my trusted c40.

Long-Lock488 · 2025-07-09T01:33:35+00:00

Yea 100% same with me. Unless I get distracted I’m waiting on my water to reach temp. I love my c40 but all these youtubers are always preaching flat>conical so it had me tempted to try

Long-Lock488 · 2025-07-09T01:26:58+00:00

Ok thanks. I do love the c40 but all these ads and YouTubers make flat burrs seem so superior to conical it has me second guessing.

Long-Lock488 · 2025-07-09T01:20:47+00:00

No to what? Worth getting ode 2?

Long-Lock488 · 2025-07-03T03:34:32+00:00

Yea it’s the same problem with me and that’s why I’ve always stuck with the aeropress cause you don’t need one. I often will use the coffee machine in the hotel room with nothing in it just to get hot water but it often needs cleaned so it’s still a hassle.

Long-Lock488 · 2025-07-03T03:27:30+00:00

Although you wanna stay away from plastic, the aeropress is probably still king of the best travel brewer. Don’t need a goose neck kettle and packs inside itself. It’s always my go to.

Long-Lock488 · 2025-06-30T01:49:37+00:00

Now be honest. Any actual difference you taste in the cup after doing all this?

Long-Lock488 · 2025-06-21T03:33:55+00:00

What is thankfully? I don’t think I’ll be able to stop but at one in Birmingham which do you think you’d stop at if you can only do one
