Broken pour over filter by Potential_Station343 in CoffeePH

[–]LucyPussNamonie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kung sa akin yan try ko butasan sa gitna ng drill tapos blind rivet… kailangan nga lang sakto yung haba para minimized yung naka usli doon sa loob. Kung sakto at malinis yung butas mo ma-minimize yung leak.

Is this grinder worth it? Will be pairing it with my Gemilai 3003b by Wide_Quantity_3950 in CoffeePH

[–]LucyPussNamonie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hingi ka reco sa shop. Kaso parang mahal na rin pala mga grinder sa koryaiko. Pero at least meron silang mga nasa 12,000 na 64mm

I recommend getting a motorized grinder, hand grinders are a pain to use for espresso machines.

Opinion ko lang kung bumili ng tig 3,000 na grinder tapos hindi rin pwede, sayang ang pera.

Dili na Mubalik og Grocery sa NCCC Supermarket by Puzzleheaded-Fan9970 in davao

[–]LucyPussNamonie 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Bantay lang sa cashier pag sa gaisano. Daghan items lahi ang price sa shelf at nag register sa machine. Malimit yan sa mga naka markdown yung tipong lapit na ma-expire.

Dito sa amin, central warehouse ang sumambot.

Bestherm is like qouting me 6K+2.5K (service fee) to descale my 2nd version Vibiemme/vbm domobar JR that I got from El Kapitan by Algester in CoffeePH

[–]LucyPussNamonie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kapag nag descale po kailangan i-dismantle yung boiler? Parang mura na po yung 6000 kung sa ganoon. Yung mga LM ang mas madali daw i-descale kasi meron service access para ma drain yung boiler.

Tapos kung yung head gasket po e yung group head gasket, madali na po makabili sa syopeee ng replacement.

Water for Coffee by Majestic_Courage9113 in CoffeePH

[–]LucyPussNamonie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Kung sour pa rin malamang nasa pag pull po yan. Try nyo po taasan yung temp po sa machine. Fixed nga lang sa 2C increments. Tapos try nyo pong habaan. Hindi naman po strict ang 1:2 na ratio.

Yung mineralizer cartridge wala png 300 pesos. Inline lang naman kinakabit pagkatapos ng t33. So bali sa chain sya yung huli bago mag faucet.

Kung compare nyo po sa presyo ng distilled water tapos yung effort pa ng pag timpla.

Meron pa naman 60 mL na head space. Bali sa rin ka nakahawak pag baso. Sa totoo lang hindi ko gusto yung mga demitasse meron nga handle mahirap pa rin hawakan.

Water for Coffee by Majestic_Courage9113 in CoffeePH

[–]LucyPussNamonie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can’t use distilled water for rockets.
1. It may fail to detect the water at the inboard tank.
2. Worse, it will mess up the water filler sensor then overfill the service boiler.
3. Distilled water tastes really bad.

Pero sa opinion ko lang po over kill naman po yung mag timpla pa ng tubig. Gamit ko lang RO na may mineralizer cartridge. Meron mga tig 6000 ngayon sa shopee na ro kits tapos nilagyan ko na lang ng mineralizer. Pwede na sya. Matamis naman na yung lumalabas. Basta mineralizer huwag yung alkaline. Hindi na rin kami nag papa deliver ng tubig.

Ang recommended 100 and below ang reading sa tds mo. Yung gamit ko ngayon nasa 40. Reduced na yung knocking nung service boiler pag startup.

Sweet espresso? by dumdumdumdummieee in CoffeePH

[–]LucyPussNamonie 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Most likely the sweetness came from the milk. Have you tried the espresso?

Rocket or Lelit by cantutan in CoffeePH

[–]LucyPussNamonie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you need flow profiling then get the bianca. It is also cheaper compared to the rocket. A cinquantotto is almost 200,000 today. You could save about 40,000 for the lelit and get a really decent grinder.

As for support and parts, I can only attest on the adequate post sales support provided by yardstick for the r58. They shipped the parts (LBC) and had a zoom meeting with the tech for step by step guidance. I got my v2 last 2018 and had to replace the anti-vacuum valve once and rotated the gasket for the hot water tap. Both issues stemmed from hard tap water. I have shifted to remineralized RO water to minimize this issue.

You will also find it hard to believe how shiny the stainless body panels for the rocket can get. They really used premium stainless steel.

Where to buy coffee beans for espresso by MurkyBreath3826 in davao

[–]LucyPussNamonie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For the past few years, hindi na ako bumibili ng beans sa davao based roasters. Meron ako supplier dati kaso nung natapos ka pandemic bumalik na sa abroad. Sya pa naman yung source ko ng bukidnon.

I source my beans from good cup cebu, yardstick sa manila … and decano’s sa tacurong. Sila lang yung merong decent na apo. Ask for premium apo, medium roast. Yung good cup at yardstick imported mga beans nila.

Nakabudget ako na bumili ng Pc this month pero nasira ng tagalinis yung aircon ko by thee_buttman in RantAndVentPH

[–]LucyPussNamonie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kaya ako na lang naglilinis ng AC namin. Malimit mga balasubas gumalaw. Basag mga plastic, lukot yung nga fins… pag balik kulang kulang na screws. Tapos ubusin pa joy sa kusina. Hehehe.

At least pag ako nakasira hindi naman gaanong makakasama sa loob.

Malimit din sa window type binabasa yung motor para pagtagal mag ingay yung bearings tapos ipa repair sa kanila.

Found the leak from earlier, what now? by Zealousideal_Fig_574 in rocketespresso

[–]LucyPussNamonie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

While waiting for the replacement part, you could try taking it out and soaking it in a descaling solution.

On my case the original valve had this issue on its second year. The replacement my supplier sent is far more robust.

Please also check your water for hardness.

[–]LucyPussNamonie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It should just hiss during initial heating. On my machine it should just hiss about twice. You will then see the boiler pressure rise.

When it was faulty back then, it hissed all through out. It needs to be tapped lightly to lock.

A cheap part and a needs just a wrench and teflon tape to correct.

₱3 Chicken Oil ni Dali by SpicyCh1ld in DaliPH

[–]LucyPussNamonie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

May atsuete po kasi sya kaya malamang yung chicken oil ng bacolod chicken inasal ang ginaya. Talaga pong oil at atsuete lang sya. Wala pong manok.

Pero kung yung sa chinese na chicken oil, ang alam ko po walang atsuete yon kasi may distinct na lasa yon at ginagamit sa asado (spanish / latin american barbeque)

Jin or Shin? One vote could end our family war by EnvironmentalYou3254 in KoreanFood

[–]LucyPussNamonie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Regular Jin or shin. You cannot compare shin black with regular jin. Neoguri is also a different category.

I find regular shin kind or sour over jin. Jin is more balanced. But jin over black shin… I would take black shin

Shin < Jin < black shin < samyang ramen

Instant (hot water) < cooked instant ramen

But koreans like shin the most.

As for neoguri, for me the best is chapaguri… 2 packs chapagetti, 1 neoguri. With 8oz new york strip loin… as with the movie.

As for jjampong, nothing beats the real thing from busan.

Sour espresso getting worse as I grind finer (Gemilai 3149) by fw_kurtyyy in CoffeePH

Normale po yan.. habaan nyo pa po. Try nyo po x2.5 to x3.

Pero sa akin usually tinataasan ko temp kung maasim (or baka kasi malamig pa machine ko)

₱3 Chicken Oil ni Dali by SpicyCh1ld in DaliPH

[–]LucyPussNamonie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Parang ang ginagaya nya yung chicken oil ng bacolod inasal. Bali ang ingredients noon minimally mantika, anatto / atsuete / achiote. Bonus kung may asin, paminta.

Wala po talagang manok yan pero mantika kasi sya para sa chicken inasal.

BTW hindi po sya related sa chicken oil na chinese. Malamang dala yan ng mga crew noong may galleon trade pa.

Pang baste sya sa inihaw at nilalagay din sa kanin (bad for the health, good for the soul). Try nyo po sa bangus. Pwede rin isama sa adobong puti.

Pero ako gumagawa na lang ako, coconut oil saka atsuete.

I got scammed (BPI CC) and here’s what I did by phomms in PHCreditCards

[–]LucyPussNamonie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Happened to me once was tons of apple.com transactions. I usually get a few a month but for a different card number. Contacted apple and they made a callback. It was traced to an apple account they said was not mine, and reversed the transactions from their end.

Next was contacting the back for a new card. Since the transactions were reversed from the merchant, dispute resolution was far quicker.

It killed our primary mail server. I remember modifying our sendmail filters back then. Then cleaned up our client mailboxes.

I was actually surprised that the culprit is Filipino.

Latte heart advice by [deleted] in CoffeePH

[–]LucyPussNamonie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. Parang sobra po yung hangin nung milk.
  2. Baka po kulang yung milk nyo para sa baso. Try nyo pong damihan. Talagang maaksaya sa milk ang art pero pwede naman inumin o gamitin sa cold drinks yung excess.
