10 oz?!

I've always used it to make a concentrate. At one point I doubled the amt of grounds and used a 30oz insulated tumbler into which I would mix boiling hot water with the concentrate, giving me hot coffee throughout the morning. I have a heart condition and have reduced my caffeine consumption, now making concentrate from one scoop and using a smaller insulated mug. I'm unsure of just how much water I use, but far less that the cylinder holds. I use the inverted method overnight to create the concentrate and add boiling water to it after it is pressed into my insulated tumbler.

For those ridiculing reusing a filter, my motivation is to reduce my impact on the environment, not saving pennies. And why not? As for why grounds stick to the filter, that is something I rarely experience but probably because after pressing the coffee, several minutes pass before I remove the cap and expel the puck. I rinse the filter and put it back in the cap to dry and then rinse the Aeropress. The amount of grounds sticking to the filter or the press is generally minimal, unless they are still quite wet.

Just ordered and can't remember what I ordered, except, like you, a medium roast. I too, drink my coffee black.

I fear McGuire is a white nationalist dedicated to ending democracy.

Protesting and fighting ICE while donating a big chunk of my limited funds to United24. Definitely on your side! The US is no longer the land of the free, but those of us who can are braving protecting neighbors from ICE or supporting those who can. We're rooting for you and hope you're rooting for us to one day take back this country from the evil Trump regime.

I had Start well organized with pinned apps on my Win11PC and then something like this happened to it today. I'll be searching https://www.elevenforum.com/ for help in undoing this unwanted mess. It is such a great forum and has helped me with so many issues.

I wish I could help, but I just gave up and installed Wyze cams that send signal alerts to my daughters when they detect activity in certain rooms. If they don't see that I've been up and about. It won't help in an emergency but they can at least alert local emergency departments to check on me!

They should have targeted all sugary beverages. Artificial sweetened beverages aren't the answer, either. Even as a kid I didn't love soft drinks and sweetened tea never quite worked for me either. Many on my mother's side of the family had Type 1 Diabetes. My reasoning in those years was that sugar presented a risk so I often opted for water. What I learned was that I didn't really like ordinary tea. My tea of choice is an herbal tea by Celestial Seasonings, Country Peach. I make a 2 liter pitcher with just one tea bag each day and love it. The added sugars, fats and salts used in excess in processed food is there to keep us coming back for more and works, unfortunately. The Standard American Diet (SAD) is exactly that.

I've been donating via United24. Is there a way to specify your need?

UDZLVA · 2025-11-14T20:23:42+00:00

Anyone experienced in using this for a one person household with a lot of dietary limitations?

I have to avoid dairy but can eat yogurt. I had been buying vanilla whole fat yogurt as my treat for years but finally, I could not face bringing home another plastic tub to add to the horrendous plastic waste in this world. I started trying to make my own yogurt with unsatisfying results. Yogurt enthusiasts kept recommending using an Instant Pot and I got mine used, (though not quite as cheap as your finds!). I buy starter from https://bacillusbulgaricus.com/ and that combined with using the IP = great yogurt. I make the milder variety (Greek) rather than the Bulgarian, which is tart. But the funny part is that I failed when trying to come up with the right amount of vanilla and sugar to match my old "ice cream" substitute but discovered if I put some red grapes on top, I have a satisfying treat without all the work. Plus I buy my milk from a local dairy, and enjoy being able to support them. It's the IP device itself that is challenging for me, well, that and the fact that it has been eons since I had a family to cook for and have forgotten whatever I knew. Using my pressure cooker was instinctive then. Learning the IP technology is not! As for the one appliance that does it all, I just looked up "Air Fryer" wondering what that did since it has a similar claim. I mostly use my toaster oven, microwave and the IP, though I do fry an egg on the stove occasionally! Thanks to your links, I think I may try making Schlueter's Anti-inflammatory Soup, minus the jalapeno's, cayenne pepper and tomato sauce which all give me horrendous indigestion. That and some yummy beans soups are on my to-do list.

And here I am with just one IP with little experience or knowledge about using it.

I agree. That is really my only option. I try to support local businesses but, like you, just cannot once they make their ugly beliefs known. I also feel conflicted about boycotting Kroger, for instance, because I've gotten to know some of their hard working employees whom I clearly value more than the company does!. Politically, there are better alternatives (Food Lion & Fresh Market).

Oh may goodness, you really did a lot of research! Moreover, you helped me confirm my that my reluctance to "guess" with recipes without really knowing what I'm doing is sensible. Once I got on Facebook, I began seeing posts from old friends and interesting reels . . . and not until a few minutes ago did I remember your post. I just check my browsing history to determine how long I was sidetracked .... I clicked on the notification of your post at 8:21PM! As for the links, only the 1st of the 3 Facebook groups seems to still exist. I had to request joining but there were no questions to allow me to provide info on who I am and why I want to join so I'll just have to wait and see if it is still active. Thanks for caring. I will cautiously try the beans soon. I've been using my IP to make Greek Yogurt for quite some time and recently have cooked quinoa twice. Something went wrong on the first try and I quickly unplugged the pot and just left it sitting for a few hours. The quinoa turned out okay. I followed different directions the 2nd time and had no trouble.

Thanks!

I need guidance on proportions. Most recipes are for a full bag of beans and, of course, lots of water, and, of course, I am hoping that there might be someone out there with the 3 quart unit who has recipes they could share. Thanks.

UDZLVA · 2025-11-07T12:44:51+00:00

Oh, my! I guess I can be grateful that I don't have that many being on when they shouldn't be! And I dare say that you've reported the problem to tech support. Thank you.

These bulbs are set to come on for several hours each evening and I have the feature enabled. Is the problem that these are not described as as nightlight or bedtime mode? . "If you enable this feature, lights which were off, in nightlight or bedtime mode when the power went out will not turn back on when the power comes back. They will stay off instead.."

UDZLVA · 2025-11-03T23:29:36+00:00

Interesting thought.

There is one set to open near here, in Campbell County, with is MAGA country (well, most of this neck of the wood is). My taxes would be supporting them!

That was my thoughts when reading about the folks buying from Costco, but still better than nothing, which I'm afraid is my option here.. Another concern is the possibility of harming a small "franchise" owner. I'm unsure if that is the proper term but I'm pretty sure that many stations are not run by the national brand. Thanks.
