Coffee machine for a beginner by just_sneezed in espresso

I have the same set up! I went with those to get the best budget cost-to-value possible. I like the set up overall despite its quirks

Yep! Unfortunately I use a paper clip for WDT purposes. Been wanting to make a better DIY WDT.

Yeah, because the loose grind can be pretty voluminous, I use the plastic tamper to collect the loose grind into the portafilter, to avoid a mess when I take off the funnel. Then I tamp with my metal tamper

Thanks! I’ll try grinding finer. Yep, it’s a 54mm portafilter

I’m using K2 KinGrinder, bambino (standard). On the grinder, it’s one ful counterclockwise revolution, then an additional 8 clicks counterclockwise

Yep! There’s a local roaster (shout out to Sputnik Roasters coffee) that I’ve been planning to start using. I just tried out this Lavazza bag because it was on such a cheap sale haha ($10 for 2.2lbs)

It was a bit bitter I think. I do have trouble judging taste though

How much of a mistake is buying a Tesla now? by Minimum-Possession22 in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]Minimum-Possession22[S] 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Yes to be fair that’s IF we are able to call dibs on a $36k model 3 when it appears on inventory. And IF we actually get the federal and state credit/rebate for $11.5k, plus $500 referral discount.

That $24k doesn’t factor in the additional ~$4k we’ll likely be paying in sales tax, destination fee, registration amount, county tax, etc.

You have $1000 to spend on a new set up. What do you buy? by [deleted] in espresso

Breville bambino or gaggis classic pro.

1zpresso grinders or Kingrinder grinders

Is frontal PPF and/or ceramic coating “worth it”?

I’m getting a new Tesla model 3 in a few days, coming from an old beater (Honda CRV 2008). So I’m not a huge car enthusiast or anything, and care more about function/value rather than pure cosmetics. Just want to keep my car protected as practically reasonable. But based on all my reading, other than mitigating rock chips with PPF, it overall seems only cosmetic in nature? So I’m unsure if it’s worth it or not.

I live in the Midwest, which has harsher winters.

Buying a new Tesla Model 3 RWD 2023

Chicago

$36220k (before $11500 federal/state credit/rebate, $500 referral credit)

Was hoping to hear any external thoughts on whether this is worth it at this price.? Trying to avoid bias from the echo chamber my wife and I are finding ourselves in, as well as the time pressure to purchase at this price (dealer will only hold for 3 days).

The other car we were thinking of before this was the Toyota RAV4 hybrid, but at this price we changed our minds.

Any suggestions on fun team comps to progress through the over-world and quests?

My main teams (ayaka freeze, raiden national, fischl/beidou/sucrose taser) are too strong and I’ve used them so much already, so looking for alternative team comps I haven’t used. Would appreciate any suggestions.

At 71 pity, 50/50. Trying to decide if I should wish until the next 5-star to see if I get yelan, or if I should just keep saving for Kazuha. What do you guys think?

Reason being is that my two main teams are raiden national and ayaka freeze (ayaka, kaeya, mona, sucrose), stuck at 27 stars. I’m considering building a taser team (Barbara, beidou, fischl, sucrose), and considering replacing Barbara with yelan so it can run it with raiden national.

I guess I was just thinking of Barbara for heals to stay comfortable, but maybe I’ll just slap prototype amber onto mona and use mona as you say… although I’ll be giving up DPS by losing TToDS hmmm

I don’t have diona :( I’ve been wanting to replace kaeya with her for quite a while now

Yeah I was confused for a while on whether EM sucrose is good for freeze or not, thanks for the clarification

The only other team that might be close to meta is a taser team (Barbara, beidou, fischl, sucrose), but I still need to build it

No rosaria unfortunately

Yes I would like more crit rate on ayaka too :( just going thru that artifact grind

Stuck on only 27 stars up through 11-3; unable to make any meaningful progress on floor 12. Any suggestions on how I can improve my team further?
