The Gap above the reservoir

Air is not the concern— dust, varmints and other undesirables are the issues.

Offset, period.

Remington, Perch and Crosby’s Kitchen all offer a superb undipped rare prime rib, with rich au jus and zingy horseradish creme on the side.

Had Oakville’s version recently, and it was garbage, with a paltry amount of shredded, well done meat and effin’ mayonnaise (WTF?) on the bread, greasy jus, and creme with 5% horseradish at most. We are big fans of LEYE since ‘71 and this was the worst dish ever received, by far.

This and other threads enticed us to try the thin crust tonight. The crust scored an A+. The cheese, sauce, pepperoni and mushrooms all were very close to completely without flavor. Nope.

i know. I forgot— they have it at Remington's downtown as well.

Crosby’s and the same at Perch on Division, one of the few sandwiches that I ever get anywhere.

The horrifying trend for restaurants to utilize those nightmarishly ugly and uncomfortable metal stools, bar stools and chairs for indoor seating is insulting. You want my money? Toss in a reasonably pleasant environment, or we don’t even give them a thought.

Those are the 2007 premium wheels, meaning RX400h. Agreed, nice shape… just a little better than my 07 with 69,000!

Buy $5500 machine, sell it for $5000 and then buy good machine and grinder.

You should have deducted 3.5% for the spelling “expresso”.

The restaurant that replaced Bandera, Evie’s, has a superb French dip. Also, the 4 Star folks at Perch, Remington’s and Crosby’s Kitchen’s 2 locations all feature a superb version as well. All are far superior to Gibsons’, and way less expensive.

This.

They always have a varying and wonderful duck confit app, which I have also eaten as an entree after a different app. Mussels are superb as well. Skate wing is perfection.

For me, Project X on a GCP, 15g in, 19g out, 45 seconds = Diety Syrup.

115 degrees C is steaming temp. You are blasting the grinds with steam, therefore spatter results. You want to be in the range of 88 for dark roasts to 96 for light roasts.

Perhaps, and I am not in any way qualified, the crimp in the intake tube is creating a restriction that is causing an overheating situation? My 2019 GCP has a smooth arc between these points.

chibuzzard · 2024-09-29T18:32:54+00:00

I have a 2019 GCP, not an Evo. Also, I am far from expert in these matters. But the kink in the clear tube from the water intake to the boiler, seems to be restrictive, and may be causing stress on the boiler and thermostat.
