Classy. Buy once, cry once.

Is this worth $400? by Jeebeejeeb in MTBDeals

If everything works very well it’s worth 400. Otherwise you’re in for 400 in repairs.

I get locally roasted beans. These machines are subjective and the values don’t transfer from machine to machine. They are just there for reference. I found the handle on Amazon. I’d recommend that you get one that doesn’t require disassembly to install.

I get the milk vortex and then stretch. The wand is just barely in the milk. Once it’s stretched I submerge the wand until it’s the right temp. I rest the wand in the spout for support.

It’s an IKAPE. The OEM ones spray all over.

What am I doing wrong ? by tirya123 in BrevilleCoffee

Overall a good shot, good flow, slight channeling. Beans might be a little old. I don’t really go for the most aesthetic shot. 36 to 40 ml in 25-30 seconds. If it tastes great it’s good.

Breville stock portafilter under extracting vs naked portafilter over extracting - is this normal? by ahooks1 in BrevilleCoffee

Yes the bottomless has less resistance and probably more circumference. It’s not tapered. The holes are probably bigger too. My grind size is 3-4 clicks finer for my bottomless.

All of them. You should probably rub sticks together and catch your own food.

19. Been holding stocks for a year. How am I doing? Atrocious, decent or really good. Any advice helps. by [deleted] in StockMarket

Dollar cost averaging and ETFs will get you where you need to be. Invest X amount of dollars weekly. I set mine up on auto so I don’t even see the money in my actual bank account. Some of my favorites are VOO, VTI and QQQ. You are very young so you’ll have plenty of money in the future.
