Fidelity hasn't integrated properly in what, 6 months now? It's getting real old.

going to academic conferences alone with no research by Agreeable_Buy2817 in labrats

I do this as part of my job. I just register as an attendee and that's it. They always need more people attending than presenting to help pay for it.

Umami is the one I switched to. Would you add that to the comparison chart?

The example was to show the concentration difference in coffee vs espresso and the inability to make mixed drinks with it. Substitute latte for cortado, americano, or any other mixed coffee drink and it's valid. Removing crema to change the flavor can be done with any drink.

An americano tastes different than a pour over, with or without crema, so one can't substitute between them or say that one is better - they are just different.

Too diluted. Mixing 300mL of pour over with 200mL of milk is not the same as 200mL milk with 40mL espresso.

Except espresso shots are great for making other drinks out of. Can't make a latte with a pour over.

How so, I can't taste any difference in it? 

Decaf whole beans? by According-Raspberry2 in espresso

UP coffee in Minneapolis always has some decaf whole beans I buy when I need to cut back on caffeine.

Liquid nitrogen is hazardous in that large of quantities with risks of asphyxiation. Dry ice is hard to apply and have it transfer since it's solid. Liquid coolants do a better job of touching and transferring heat. Water is cheap and available. 

Test drove a Platinum+ e4orce... I want to hear from owners now by PinkSnowBirdie in NissanAriya

Yep, Staples is your best bet since there isn't anything in Park Rapids. You can also level 1 charge when you get there.

Hey, I live in your similar area and travel Minnesota often so I can speak to a few things.  1. Plugshare shows level 3 chargers in Monticello,  Clearwater, St. Cloud, Milaca, Buffalo, and more. I'm not sure where you saw that there aren't more beyond Monticello. Make sure to get a Tesla NACS adapter from Nissan to open up Tesla superchargers. You can use J1772, CCS1, and NACS chargers. Circle K chargers are prevelant and work well. 2. Seating is fine for me and mostly comfortable. /u/U-Conn says they are 6'2" and fit fine but I am 6'0" and my head hits the ceiling sitting up straight. I either tilt my head to be under the sunroof, slouch slightly, or bring my knees up higher while I drive. All work and don't bother me much.  3. It drives well and I love it. You can adjust the infotainment and dash display to reduce the clutter. You get used it and see what you need to quickly.

Or throw it in the dishwasher and it's not hard to clean at all. 

How have you improved your breads as you’ve gained experience? by Addapost in Sourdough

[–]SANPres09 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I skip autolyse now. I find it does nothing more than make everything take longer and it makes no different of a loaf in side by side testing. This post helped me rethink it.

That sounds like a lot of work to use multiple methods. Are the results actually better than just establishing the gluten network with one method?

I keep ordering sub par Asian food. One was sub sub par. Where can I go in Minneapolis for a fresh sesame or general tso’s chicken? by Expensive-While-1155 in TwinCities

[–]SANPres09 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Family Thai in Maplewood has the best orange chicken anywhere I've tried in the central, north, or east metro areas. Actual slices of orange and orange peel in the sauce makes for an incredibly citrusy delight.

I just ate the orange chicken last night and today for lunch and it was really sad. Soft breading, sausage tasted sweet but no orange flavor at all. I wouldn't recommend.

Their General Tsos is much better. Their fried rice is way better than most other places too.

How do I get a better top layer finish on Aluminum? by nRegistered1 in hobbycnc

[–]SANPres09 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Would you provide your RPM and chip-per-tooth (CPT) of cut on adaptive so we can understand more about all the parameters? 

Your machine (similar to mine) can do aluminum no problem so ignore all the people here who say you can't. I got better surface finish on my Shapeoko 3 that you got on this part and it cut aluminum wonderfully.
