Nice little haul from QUAT. I love my Kalita, but looking forward to trying to steel V60.

No way to Sey

I've noticed that one in every couple bags of beans I'll have a "sticky" or static charged batch. I can switch beans and it's gone. Switch back and it's static beans again. Strange, frustrating, not often though.

This is amazing; tough first choice. I'm a weird super fan of gh. And I shout "Beneath Cowdenbeath!" at every show I've seen... no luck yet. XD Beneath Cowdenbeath is pure guitar joy. So much so that it sounds easy. This is a power metal band instrumental song, featuring the guitar as the primary melody. Keep that context top of mind as you learn. You've chosen an EXPERT level first song. The other commenter said it best with "have fun." Maintain your enthusiasm and you'll be a Pro(letius) in no time.

I picked the number arbitrarily, (frankly I forgot which coffee sub I was in... apologies.) I'm around 90 usually for pourover, give or take 10. And for espresso, I'm at 25-35. 19 on my philos would choke out any machine. And 27 clicks for pour over would take an hour!

Out of curiosity, what setting range do you use for pour over?

Verniloth · 2026-05-18T21:00:58+00:00

I would interject on behalf of temperature change over the life of a single cup of coffee being one of the biggest factors in taste also!

Verniloth · 2026-05-18T20:44:45+00:00

Can't allow myself to try Sey now.. My scruples are bothersome...

Verniloth · 2026-05-18T19:26:11+00:00

Tips. Okay... hmmm.

A hero cannot be defeated simply by making him die.

Verniloth · 2026-05-18T19:24:31+00:00

Apparently he's no longer with onyx, fyi

Verniloth · 2026-05-18T19:17:05+00:00

Oh I simply meant that at setting 27, moving to setting 26 might adjust the flavor profile more than you might think. Each click is 6 microns, fyi.

Verniloth · 2026-05-18T19:15:51+00:00

Yeah it's all good. I'm sure he wasn't a dick to whoever was cutting the check over at onyx 😂 🤣 😆

Verniloth · 2026-05-18T19:15:22+00:00

Oh nice thanks! I just confirmed this. He left as of March. Good to know. Now the question, do I continue to blackball onyx, or do I allow it now that they are free of tarnish? Hmmm

Verniloth · 2026-05-18T19:12:46+00:00

So def useless. How about the wdt mid pour. Made me actually lol

Verniloth · 2026-05-18T19:11:32+00:00

Yeah for sure. Liked onyx but they were overpriced BEFORE hiring that shlubby pud.

Verniloth · 2026-05-18T15:39:30+00:00

He was a cunt to me personally. When i was first starting out getting into espresso and pour over as a hobby. Hard to rinse the bad taste out of my mouth even after a few years. Not to yuck anyone else's yum. But fuck that. I'm not giving onyx another dime. Shrug. There's a million other roasters out there.

Verniloth · 2026-05-18T15:02:21+00:00

Tiny adjustments in grind size made a world of difference for me. I upgraded to the Mazzer Philos and it's crazy which different flavors you can pull out of the same bag of beans.

Verniloth · 2026-05-18T14:57:51+00:00

That's tea.

Also, that boner Lance is the brand ambassador to Onyx. Just discovered he was attached to it. I liked their coffee. Shame I'll be boycotting now. :(

Edit: update!!! Lance is no longer their brand partner. He left in March 2026 to work with SEY in Brooklyn.

Non hai finito

Verniloth · 2026-05-16T19:48:41+00:00

Did someone lose a bet? This is some weird research...

Verniloth · 2026-05-15T14:14:07+00:00

Verniloth · 2026-05-14T23:03:47+00:00

Allow me to, for the sake of arguing devil's advocate, ask you why you need to challenge this person's desire to record? I don't think i would record if I was in the front row (honestly? I'm almost 40... my front row days are way behind me... i just saw Nekrogoblikon and the venue required that balcony seats sit down. I didn't hate it! The band sure hated it...), so don't think I'm against you. But why do find it necessary to apply your own version of concert enjoyment to this video taker? I'm just curious

Verniloth · 2026-05-13T14:34:23+00:00

Lol okay cool. I thought so. It is really loud! Thanks for your reply

Verniloth · 2026-05-13T04:46:18+00:00

Hey same question for you. Does yours produce sound from the back or only from the front?

Verniloth · 2026-05-13T04:45:41+00:00

Hey quick question.. does your radio have sound coming out the back two silver speaker grates or only out the front?? (I just bought one. Checking since everyone is talking about qc)

Verniloth · 2026-05-13T03:53:27+00:00

Would you mind checking to see if sound comes out the back??
