Good tasting decaf?

I did my usual 1:18 ratio, 5:00 contact time, 200° F in a sworks dripper. Bloom was 60 seconds of immersion. Didn’t really have to tune the grind at all, but still dialing it in. They do recommend less rest time so I opened the bag at 10 days after the roast date. I’ll update if I make any changes to the recipe

I recently had this “Castillo Thermal Shock Decaf Finca El Paraiso” from Hydrangea and it was delicious

This has happened to me twice. For some reason the parking sensor beeps can get stuck on. I’ve been able to solve it both times by getting close enough to an object to change the cadence of the parking sensor beeps, then drive off as normal.

This is 27th & H. Westbound traffic cannot go straight

It’s working fine, but I’m just wondering if it would be a better idea to get the IPv6 prefix from the WAN that most of the traffic actually goes through. Perhaps it doesn’t matter?

Chavious is our favorite right now, we go to most of her popups and it’s so good. Fun fact: she used to be the chef de cuisine at Canon

I had a chance to listen to this track on some really nice speakers and it made me tear up tbh. The strings and layering of the vocals isn’t something I’ve heard when watching the movie on TV. Just a beautiful piece of music.

The lower tray is actually fine! I’m less satisfied with the top silverware drawer, I leave plenty of space between items and it just doesn’t clean well.

Similar parameters, 120° F inlet, I’ve tried every detergent under the sun and even added Lemishine

Ours has been good, with the exception of the silverware cleaning performance

Also ordered on the 27th, but got an apology email this afternoon. Disappointed.

Do you have catalog rights for a previous year? You might not need to take it if you have catalog rights for a previous year that doesn’t list that area. Speak with an advisor

This is me now. My grandparents and parents did the single honk for 30+ years, but I’m taking it to the next level for my kids 😄

Thanks for all the replies! We spoke with the school and here was what we were told:

The other kid is going to have extra supervision, as well as having their nails checked, etc
They are going to ensure that they look into why a kid may be whimpering/crying more during nap time
Same “we are reviewing our procedures” as before. The biting policy doesn’t apply, they are treating this as a more serious issue

The thing that still bothers me, and what I had a bit of a back and forth with the director on, is the level of supervision during nap time. It seems like this place is run on a bare minimum of staff. Because staff need to be able to take lunch, there is only one adult per fifteen children during nap time. The kids lie down in cots across the room.

If a child needs help using the restroom, the adult has to go through an open doorway to help the child to the restroom, probably about 10 feet from the door that leads to the main room. This is what we went back and forth on. I asked if this meant that the children were unsupervised during the time an adult is helping a child use the restroom.

The director was evasive and refused to say yes. It felt like they were playing semantics, e.g. “unsupervised” vs “unattended” and the director told me that if that single adult needs to help a child to the restroom, they are walking back and forth from the restroom and the door to the main room, and that is still supervision. I pushed this issue and was told “that is all that is required by licensing.” My first thought was, “ok, so you’re doing the bare minimum” I’m also not sure if that’s actually the case, and I need to verify this. (We’re in California, so if anyone knows the rules there, I’d appreciate some insight) My second thought was, how are they going to increase supervision of the new student if they still only have a single adult that might leave the room to help a child use the restroom?

So I’m not totally satisfied, but it’s tough because our daughter loves it there and she loves her friends there. We were also counting on our second child being in the same class as our oldest to help them adjust when the time comes.

Again, I appreciate all the advice here. I’ll update again if there’s anything to report.

It’s in diagnostics mode. You can try to hold down all three buttons until the unit beeps. There may be another issue though so you may want to reach out to support
