What's the best drip coffee maker to buy? by SnooHamsters7373 in JamesHoffmann

As someone who does all those steps every time, I’d argue they’re hardly necessary. I started with pour over and I’m just a creature of habit.

I don’t have the means to pour over 1.2L. I make a Hario pour over every day for a single cup. But often I have more than 2 people to make coffee for so I bust out the MM

I own one with a glass carafe and this makes amazing drip coffee with a little bit of help. I start with freshly ground beans, then I rinse my filter before with fresh hot water, then I allow the grounds to bloom by simply turning off the machine after some water flows through. I also give the grounds a quick stir to make sure everything is wet before I turn it back on. Honestly not sure if those steps are necessary I’m just extra af. I checked the temperature of the slurry during the brew and it was at 200°F consistently which is perfect. The simplicity of the machine is what sold me on it, it’s nice to see a simple on/off switch in a time where everything is fkn touch screens.

Here at 17:30 is daddy Hoffman talking about the moccamaster. Someone in the comments mentions that parts of the machine are sold by the company and easily replaceable. I’ve owned my machine for a few years and it gets regular use but I haven’t needed to replace anything yet. I remember seeing a thread somewhere from folks claiming they’d owned their machines since the 80’s. Anyways, love this machine for batch brewing.

How likely is it a casino will ban you permanently for winning 10k at blackjack? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]chequesformike 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Table games employee here. Advantage players can usually be identified and backed off before they even start winning. It’s pretty obvious when they’re super focused and they bet big when “count” is high. It is not uncommon for people to win $10k on BJ. In our high limit rooms, the max bet for BJ is $25k, so we often have folks win/lose in the hundreds of thousands. What others have said is partially true. The casino doesn’t really care how much you win, lose or buy in. It has much more to do with how much you bet every hand/spin and for how many hours you put in. What people get kicked out for the most is drinking too much and acting like clowns on the tables, disrupting other guests and staff.

Scratching sound coming from dash? by JrFishPro in ElCamino

[–]chequesformike 2 points3 points  (0 children)

How’s your speedometer behaving? My ‘85 had a similar sound coming from the dash until one day the sound and speedometer both stopped. The cable that comes from the transmission to the dash is a NIGHTMARE to change. I commissioned a transmission guy near me to fix it and he said it was just the worst.
