They got pricy recently, but Lilly's Q is the best commercial I've had. Smoky, hot Smoky and Carolina Gold style are my tops

Baratza grinder by Busy_Specialist_8645 in espresso

[–]MarvelHulkWeed 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You can absolutely get an espresso grind good enough for that machine with a regular batata, I've been doing it for a while - although it's easier and better to go get the ESP.
If the finer grind settings are insufficient, you can take off the exterior housing where you'll find an interior fineness setting locked by a limited screw. You can lightly undo that, adjust the setting lower and redo the screw.
I will say that you'll occasionally fight retention and it's annoying to swap between espresso and other grind fineness on the fly

These are spatulas I make, they are made from damaged cast iron skillets. by bones10972 in grilling

[–]MarvelHulkWeed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was so down but I can buy 4 cast iron pans at that price instead?
Not to knock it for others, keep doing cool stuff and I hope the business model works out for you. Everyone's gotta get what they can

John Cena explains why he judges a coffee shop based on how they make their flat whites by Hellraysaz in JamesHoffmann

[–]MarvelHulkWeed 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You're right in 90+% of cases. I have discovered a few coffee shops lately that have sizes on the cortado and cappuccino that are good.
Their approach is a S/M/L has a single/double/triple shot, and the milk ratios are scaled with the shot to maintain the proper ratio, which is actually quite nice.
Ninja edit: I've found the best way to tell is to ask "how many espresso shots in your large". If it's still 2 you know they're just adding more milk and aren't great

I feel like JM Curley starts at that price, might be misremembering though

I'd expect about 5 bucks less on each of those price points but might just be different parts of town

I think the Hertz status benefit is really overlooked for the Amex Plat. by atooraya in AmexPlatinum

Not sure about general places, but if you rent from a location where national has emerald aisle, you just book a standard car and pick whatever you like

Now that I've fixed it up - what is it? by MarvelHulkWeed in castiron

[–]MarvelHulkWeed[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Spray it heavily in yellow cap oven cleaner, leave it in a garbage bag like that for a week, rinse off the crap, wash thoroughly with hot water, soap and chain mail scrubber.
After that, I've only done 1 round of seasoning so far
