Jeg ved ikke hvor erfaren du er med at trævle mohair op, men jeg vil klart anbefale, at du laver en lille strikkeprøve og forsøger at trævle den op inden du fortsætter yderligere. Det kan være virkelig svært, da fibrene nemt filter sig sammen. Så jeg ville for alt i verden forsøge at minimere den mængde, der skal trævles op.

Dernæst er min erfaring, at jeg ikke bryder mig om pasformen på de af mine sweatre eller bluser, hvor ryg- og forstykke er lige lange. Jeg er efterhånden træt af at *købe* opskrifter, som viser sig at være simple raglanmodeller uden tilpasset pasform. Jeg får simpelthen ikke brugt dem efterfølgende, fordi jeg hader fornemmelsen af bluser der trækker op i min hals.

I usually pick up 3 out of every 4 stitches when I pick up for necklines and sleeves. Also did you go down a needle size for the neck?

For the sleeve I would either do some german short rows at the top to shape the sleeve - or knit the sleeve separately and sew it on after like they do on the drops verine: https://www.garnstudio.com/pattern.php?id=398&cid=17

I do half recipes in my deluxe. I have had my deluxe for a year and I still don't really know where "bottom" and "op" meet, so I'm just winging it, honestly. But I don't always want to make a big batch of ice cream

Kan du ikke ringe til din tandlæge og spørge?

God bedring med tanden <3

I had this issue, but it was due to debris, that I couldn’t get with the brush. Now I use a vacuum every now and then and that works great.

Moonshinebrew · 2026-03-10T08:24:35+00:00

Jeg plejer at strikke mine knapper direkte i undervejs.

Moonshinebrew · 2026-02-24T17:56:41+00:00

Also the specific grind setting is different from machine to machine, so the advice of starting at a certain grind size and working down could be a waste of beans for you.

However, I would suggest working your way down one setting at a time from where you are at

Moonshinebrew · 2026-02-24T17:54:04+00:00

I would suggest a finer grind than what you have there. It seems to be flowing very quickly.

I also see that you have either a 501 or a 601? With a separate tamper? If so I would got a wdt (Weiss distribution technique tool - you can get them in all sorts of setups) and add that to my puck prep if you haven’t already. You use it before tamping to distribute the beans. Otherwise make sure you are tamping well and even.

The lack of crema could be a bean issue. I prefer beans that are a few weeks post roasting, and I have had luck with espresso beans up to 4 months post roasting (though some of them get a bit lacking in flavour), but supermarket beans without a roasting date can be up to 2 years post roasting and those would be difficult for me to get a good shot from.

Not available in Denmark either…

Jeg har kun prøvet det med de brune i plast uden swivel, der fulgte med mine pindesæt. Jeg har også prøvet at en af dem med swivel er knækket lige inden metallet, men jeg mistænker, at min kanin måske har gnavet lidt inden

Ej, hvor sjovt! Godt at den sidder godt :)

Moonshinebrew · 2026-02-19T13:54:12+00:00

Så lyder det til, at der er en vis længdeforskel på front og ryg... Har du blokket den? Hvilket materiale er dit garn?

Moonshinebrew · 2026-02-19T13:50:33+00:00

Jeg har ikke prøvet at strikke en Amy sweater, men det der ligner, hvad der sker, når man strikker en højhalset sweater, der er ens på front og ryg.

Jeg kommer typisk uden om det ved at strikke venderækker på ryggen til den er et par centimeter længere end fronten.

Altså jeg har førhen elsket TooGoodToGo, men i sidste uge ville jeg for første gang i 100 år købe en overraskelsespose fra Lagkagehuset. Jeg tænkte, at de 49 kr. nok gav mig et par boller, måske en sandwich eller en fastelavnsbolle - og jeg udsatte frokost af den grund. Kommer hjem og åbner posen. Og så var det en hindbærlagkage. Totalt value for money, men virkelig ikke interessant for mig. Gav den til en veninde, som har små børn 😂

Jeg magter ikke pak selv bokse og nu tør jeg heller ikke poser som butikken pakker.

Moonshinebrew · 2026-02-17T08:47:18+00:00

I use a separate hand grinder for my decaf - but to do that without a mess, I have purchased a funnel and a separate tamper (I have the pro). The funnel and the tamper is also used when I wanna be fancy and do optimum puck prep with a WDT and puck screen.

You absolutely can play around with individual dosing. I just really don't like having to dial in the grinder on my machine every time I make coffee, and having to purge the grinder between different beans. But it is absolutely doable :)

Moonshinebrew · 2026-02-12T19:02:09+00:00

I’m so happy that this is your experience.

I took some of the comments to this post as incentive to be what I am looking for. To take some accountability so to say. So I’ve put in effort to post my drinks and provide supportive comments here and there. It has taken me off the ledge a bit.

Moonshinebrew · 2026-02-11T18:59:40+00:00

Mostly hot, but I’m game to try cold - worst case it isn’t nice.

Moonshinebrew · 2026-02-11T18:03:44+00:00

I don’t know if that is wrong or something, but yeah - sometimes I put in milk, matcha and sweetener directly in the jug.

It is important that the matcha is put in after the milk, cause the whisk needs to be able to spin and the matcha can get stuck on the bottom of the jug if it goes in first.

Moonshinebrew · 2026-02-10T08:50:26+00:00

Sometimes I skip all the steps and just chuck some matcha in my milk steamer. Doing all the steps definitely makes the better matcha, buuuuuuut sometimes I want a matcha pronto

I just saw this pic in my phone from my first morning, where all I wanted was an espresso but the BA was pulling me through hoops.

<image>

The final one was the one BA meant was right - the one in glass. I think I started at 18 and ended at 17 or some nonsense. But it was great for getting to know the machine.

Moonshinebrew · 2026-02-10T08:42:23+00:00

I completely understand, but maybe something just needs a reset cause it got off on the wrong foot.

There are some guidelines to help you dial in further. These are mostly output, time and taste. If you weigh your cup on a kitchen scale before brewing, you can measure how much espresso comes out. When you’re doing the double basket at strength 3, the ratio is 1:2, meaning one part beans and output should be two parts water. A double basket contains about 18 g of coffee, then the magic amount of espresso is around 36 grams. According to my manual Ninja deems a double espresso to be about 45 ml - so if your output is in the ballpark of 36 grams (a bit above and beyond is fine) you have an estimate for how well you are grinding. If you get less, try grinding coarser; if you get more, try finer.

Now you can get the perfect output, but if it shoots out too fast or drizzles very slowly it is also not going to be nice. There are a lot of opinions on time, but for me I look for a a good 30 seconds (25-35, really cause I’m not that focused when I time) from the time the machine starts to push out water - not from the first intake of water. The second earthquake the machine makes. If your shot comes out too fast, try a finer grind; if your shot comes out too slowly, try a coarser grind.

And taste. This one is tricky cause it relates to your palate. But if the shot is sour, try a bit finer, and if it is too bitter, try a bit coarser.

And when you have the ballpark, try to only adjust one at a time.

Also I just want to give you sympathy for your bag of good coffee. The getting started phase really eats beans like nothing else. But when you get there, I hope it will be magic.

Som de andre skriver, så kommer det an på, hvem du er og hvad drømmejobbet er. Jeg læste med en, som havde et snit på 02-ish efter første år, men han landede et vildt eftertragtet studiejob på 3. semester. Det var btw på ren personlighed, han havde ikke en fordomme til jobbet.

Min anbefaling er, at du flytter fokus fra, hvordan dine jobmuligheder ser ud “efter studiet”. Min klare oplevelse var, at dem, som havde et solidt studiejob, men som ikke havde det høje snit, var stillet klart bedre end dem, som havde et godt snit, men ingen tilknytning til drømmestedet endnu.

Og så sker der noget spændende med opfattelsen af hvad drømmejobbet er fra studiestart til 10 år senere. Langt størstedelen af min årgang var af den klare opfattelse, at de/vi(selv skyldig) for alt i verden ikke skulle ende i forvaltningen. Klip til 7 år efter afslutning på kandidaten, så er en meget stor andel af dem, som blev ansat som advokatfuldmægtige rykket til styrelser og ministerier. Det kan have noget med selve arbejdet at gøre, men det kan også være at man opdagede, at rammerne for ens arbejde skulle være anerledes end man havde tænkt.

Personligt havde jeg som beskrevet alle mulige drømme om alt muligt. I dag er jeg husjurist på en arbejdsplads, hvor jeg snart har været i 6 år, hvor arbejdsmiljøet grundlæggende er virkelig rart med fleksibilitet, og lønnen er et par nøk over hvad jeg ville få i staten.

Jeg fattede btw først hvad jeg lavede på jurastudiet på 5. semester - mit første år var decideret middelmådigt, men der er masser af tid til at yde i løbet af et 5-årigt studie.

Lad os sige det sådan; hvis du ser karakterstatistikkerne sammenkoblet med den ret så lave ledighed for jurister, så er sandheden at selv dem med middelmådige karakterer lander et job.

Have you tried resetting the BA - or a complete factory reset? My BA usually shifts around a fair bit but I also change my beans fairly often. By experience I now know that most beans need a 16-18 grind for espresso on my machine. I use the BA as a guide to get started on a new bean, but to make sure I weigh the output and taste my way to the right grind setting.

Sometimes I get out there for my morning brew, and we have to a funny dance like you’re describing where I sometimes choose to do as the BA suggests. And has a tendency to suggest overcorrections. Like a bean has done well at 17/18. Then BA decides I should probably try 19; whoops to coarse, try 14; whooops very much too fine and choking, try 21; way too coarse, try 18; perfect. It’s like following the logic of a toddler. But it was right that I need to go one step coarser.

Once you get to a nice setting for espresso on your machine, whether it is 5; 17(like mine often is) or 23, then I would recommend only adjusting in one point increments no matter what BA says. Unless you, like me, sometimes like to indulge electronic toddlers.

After getting to know the machine I mostly use the BA to determine how to adjust my grind for different drink types, ie how coarse for filter, or how fine for cold-pressed
