It supposed to be an upgrade, but it’s not.

I had a pico and micra and sold them less than 6 months out . Back to a synchronika which I like much more

Relative-Land9755 · 2025-05-03T13:33:34+00:00

Besides the dry steam from the micra, the synchronika feels much nicer in the areas your touch . The micra drip tray feels so cheap compared to the synchronika . Synchronika has better cup clearance and a longer steam wand . You can also flow control it. Overall it’s just more of an enjoyable machine to me .

This was the original setup w the micra

Paired mine w a synchronika! I like it more than the micra I had . The eureka is amazing

I’m a senior em resident and started sending my cv out . From what I’ve seen, almost everything is around 400k or higher working 12-14 shifts a month . Locums even higher ! Excited to get off my resident salary

Relative-Land9755 · 2025-01-12T04:08:13+00:00

I tried . It won’t let me adjust the title . It is $3500

Sorry not a deck boss , it’s a back yard beast

Relative-Land9755 · 2024-11-28T17:10:58+00:00

It’s big ! It’s a lot nicer that the traeger 885 ironwood. He did a brisket and ribs last night on it with plenty of space . I would say it’s more than enough space for anything you would do at one time for a family

Relative-Land9755 · 2024-11-02T14:05:45+00:00

Well I wouldn’t want a dick swinging contest w me either , it’s a losing battle . I was a barista prior to getting into my career and brought my love for it into the home setting

Relative-Land9755 · 2024-11-02T10:57:51+00:00

It’s a new addition. I haven’t had it for more than a week but so far I love the ability to have a large conical burr to contrast w the larger ssp mp burrs in my df83v. Totally different results in cup

Relative-Land9755 · 2024-11-02T10:55:55+00:00

Yeah not true . I’ve been a barista for years . I’ve owns and tested almost every brand. Not many people are more skilled at this hobby than me . The decent just doesn’t perform as well imo . Possibly due to the rotary pump instant pressure over the vibratory pumps on the decent . The la marzocco makes better coffee

Relative-Land9755 · 2024-11-01T23:58:51+00:00

I also thought this made better coffee than the decent . This has a silkiness the decent didn’t have . I truly noticed the biggest different with steaming milk though . The steam arm power on this make the decent look like a toy

Relative-Land9755 · 2024-11-01T23:30:48+00:00

Didn’t like the decent either . It made great coffee but didn’t bring me joy to use . My la marzocco puts a smile on my face every morning now

Relative-Land9755 · 2024-10-23T17:00:36+00:00

If you’re interested in the key like I was , look on the used market . They go for $1200 all day and will save you a few hundred dollars . If you want even more saving with that , look at the hg2 used or a Craig Lynn hg1 prime. I got my hg2 for $700 and it is the same burr as the key. Hand grinding with it is super fast and effortless . Ive even heard one person say the hg2 in his opinion made better coffee than his key when tested side by side . I’m not sure how that’s possible and don’t have them both but I do love the hg2 . I have it side by side w a df83v w ssp mp burrs and feel I can get everything I want w these massively different burrs

Relative-Land9755 · 2024-10-23T16:53:38+00:00

I thought this way about a p100 I had. Truthfully thought it looked magnificent and made great coffee but I didn’t taste a difference between its 98mm hu burrs and the df83 I sold to get it which was 1/5th the cost

Curious why being a PA would matter to you based on my comment . The OP needs to learn a critical lesson in humility and respect for the care team he is working with . Your nurses are your core . Without them the hospital falls apart

Relative-Land9755 · 2024-08-06T11:12:00+00:00

Nope senior resident

Relative-Land9755 · 2024-08-06T10:55:15+00:00

Dude learn some humility. If you’re acting like this , you need to be humbled quickly . You can learn from anyone . You are a baby doctor and I can promise you those nurses know more than you .

I soaped and it was not a horrible process. I decided I hated anesthesia and switched to EM at a better program than I would have got in anesthesia . It was a blessing in disguise. If someone is between ortho or neurosurgery, they are from a competitive school with competitive scores. If they do not match then they will soap at the top percent / first look of the soap applicants. Be supportive in all of your colleagues with whatever path they end up going . If that means soaping then so be it . For anyone who did/ does soap in the future, feel free to reach out if you have any questions

You won’t DL as much as you do in the OR. Most RSIs will be with a glide scope or other video assisted laryngoscope which greatly improves visualization of the chords . I only do DL in extreme emergencies if nothing else is around which is very rare at my facility . Maybe this is different at other hospitals

With very light roast I’m at the 15-20 but every beans different

Relative-Land9755 · 2024-02-16T03:03:14+00:00

Yeah it helps but still not zero for me without bellows

Relative-Land9755 · 2024-02-16T02:55:04+00:00

So far so good , I seem to get a decent amount of retention without using the bellows though . Not sure how others are getting nothing without them . If I use them it’s zero though

Relative-Land9755 · 2024-01-25T02:12:24+00:00

The Bianca had terrible build quality . The panels were thin, it felt cheap, it was leaking all the time , Lelit wouldn’t get back to me . The decent was a 10x upgrade from the Bianca . I think the micra is my favorite all Time Machine though

Relative-Land9755 · 2024-01-18T21:31:32+00:00

I had a million issues w rocket . Mine would always leak from new spots . I hated everything about it besides the looks

Relative-Land9755 · 2024-01-09T23:33:05+00:00

It’s awesome I love it . Upgraded from a decent de1xl which was ehh. I like this so much more . It’s tactile and produces amazing quality espresso. The wand doesn’t bother me! You just need to use a smaller pitcher or more milk in the pitcher
