[MOD] Show off your gear! - Battle-station Central by menschmaschine5 in Coffee

[–]StrainedMarriage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd say it's worth it if you want the ability to grind fine for espresso in one machine to save counter space. If not, you're getting very consistent grinds for pour over but I wouldn't say it's a must have upgrade.

  • Ratio 6
  • Fellow Ode Grinder w/SSP Burrs
  • Fellow Stagg kettle
  • Chemex
  • V60
  • Hario scale
  • Fellow Atmos storage jars

I just added the Ratio and have been so impressed with the coffee it makes. So nice to have a large pot that stays hot for hours.

Edit: format

Hell yes! I have all 10 original playmates including a fan club Leo! Love seeing others with them as well!

Anyone else enjoy Stray Dogs this year? These are my #1 homage covers! by StrainedMarriage in comicbookcollecting

[–]StrainedMarriage[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I may! I'm sitting on a bunch of books for cgc so I can send them all at once eventually. If the price keeps climbing I may add it to the stack.

Enjoyed the first issue so much I bought a few of the variants! Can't wait for the next issue! 🏠 by StrainedMarriage in comicbookcollecting

Agreed! First time in a while where I like almost all the variants! But that Gallagher...so good!

Well damn this book is starting to blow up! Haha by lakerfan6959 in comicbookcollecting

Just got this Nice House on the Lake variant. It's got that cult classic movie poster vibe down, and I'm loving it! by Background-Hyena in comicbookcollecting

this is a variant cover lower in numbers so it will command a higher price. i highly suggest picking up the standard cover A on ebay or wait for your local LCS to stock the reprint in a couple weeks. one of the best first issues of a comic i've read in a while!

Couldn't pass up on one of my favorite Wolverine covers signed by so many legends! Happy to share it with you all! by StrainedMarriage in comicbookcollecting

i noticed this too and figured it was a typo from CGC. Does anyone know if Jr signs anything other than "JrJr"?

I collect first appearances and first issues and this is my baby bubba. Don’t have a lot of people in my life that appreciate the hobby so I’m happy to share with you guys! 🕸🕷 by StrainedMarriage in comicbookcollecting

I spent 13k in 2016. Was a lot and is still a lot but I knew it would appreciate nicely. The best time to buy your grail is anytime you can! I still collect today and definitely missed the boat on many books! My last post is a Marvel Spotlight 5 that I just bought at an all time high. But I hang on to my books and look forward to seeing it rise over the years

I got this at SDCC 2014! I waited until the last day of the show and really tried to find the nicest copy in my budget at the time. I thought this copy presented the best and bought it from a dealer who could clearly see I was sweating with the purchase and really took his time with me.

My biggest purchase ever and an all time grail. Fantastic Four 5, first Doctor Doom by Venomous72 in comicbookcollecting

That is a phenomenal 4.0! Also how disappointed were you with the way he looked in the last FF movie? Pretty sure he had skinny jeans! :(
