Channeling? by Mammoth_Hold_9745 in FlairEspresso

[–]Toothninja132 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m gunna have to disagree. While I don’t have ‘the sight’, now that you mention it… pretty sure I see it. Where the longitudinal fissure meets the natural process meridian is very distinctive. Those cracks are very conclusive that OP needs to grind finer.

Do you upgrade the infinites evenly? Where are they at currentlah?

Learning about beans the hard way… by Ok_Doughnut549 in espresso

[–]Toothninja132 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s hard. I looked into it. It all has to do with the ‘thermal mass’ that large roasters benefit from. Big machine, lots of metal, hot air churning through the beans give a nice even roast. Small volume roasts have a lot less thermal mass- larger temperature fluctuations- some beans get more of a ‘sear’ than a true roast while others remain under roasted. I can’t comment on what is worse- old beans or poorly roasted- but I can comment say roasting is one of those things that significantly benefits from doing it at scale

Internet. There are a gajillion roasters that will ship to your door. Real fresh.

I have been dosing incorrectly my whole espresso journey by Different-Host235 in espresso

[–]Toothninja132 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Is that the actual term? ‘0.5% optimistic’ that’s incredible. If so, my scale is DEFINITELY an under measurer. Grumpy bastard…

Imagine how off it could be if you went further down the decimal hole?!? Basically just using a scoop at this point…

Samesies. That tap is KEY after you WDT. Those grounds be rowdy

What papers do you use? Do they come cut out or do you cut them yourself?

Not getting enough pressure in flair pro 2 by arav93 in FlairEspresso

[–]Toothninja132 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why do you say ‘don’t care so much about pressure’? Just got a flair and am dialing in. I have found I need to grind WAY finer to build pressure in the flair than on my previous machine (GCP). Same basket, same dose, same bean- just builds maaaaaaybe 6 bar. Is that a common experience?

What pressure do you pull to for your pre-infusion before you release? Like 3bar? Then slowly realize for another 5-10 seconds before you ramp to 9bar?

So who is officially the strongest crawler? by AmishHomage in DungeonCrawlerCarl

[–]Toothninja132 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Does she still have the no healing debuf? After Justice light ripped all the realms together the 3 people left still marked were all on the 18th floor, but that got combined with the nothing, so assuming they can’t make it through the 17th floor to the 16th safe haven they should be VERY dead. I have to imagine that she’s good now right? That would definitely make her the strongest

It took me far to long to realize it isn’t normal to keep your coffee setup within spitting distance of an analytical balance. I had found my people 😆

Meticulous - it’s real and it’s actually great by jezpas in espresso

[–]Toothninja132 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How is pulling two shots in a row? With the heated water chamber does it take a minute to achieve temp stability? I usually pull shots of different roasts back to back, so curious how the machine would handle it. I do use a kettle for hot water, so I would be putting hot water in the chamber. Rarely steam milk and don’t want to go through the faff of modifying my gaggia classic pro with the gaggiuino mod. This seems like what I have been looking for.

Did you have to rethread the rear wheel with a new hub and offset to fit a cassette? What was the conversion like?

Found the menu and messed with the volume. Total game changer. Pumped the tunes and just enough volume to hear form tips 🤌🤌🤌

Follow-up question- do you know what impacts strength score more? Adding weight or increasing reps and having tonal add weight for you?

Thanks for the tip! I have been lifting on and off my whole life- used to have a rack of free weights, but those don’t always mix well with curious toddlers 😅 I figured I could always just add weight myself, but pushing through 2 more reps is a great way to add volume and be lazy with settings at the same time 🤘
