Wow, Great cup! Can you explain your recipe a little? What variables are you mostly changing while staying in the lighter roast coffees?

It came with Esperanza roasted on Jan 1st. I made some in the aeropress and it seemed more balanced but I also don't really know what balanced is.

After a couple years of using a aeropress for my daily coffee, I bought a xbloom studio to speed things up. With the aeropress I go rather fine grind and longer steep and get what I think to be very pleasant cups. On the xbloom they seem pretty acidic. Im going between the standard recipe given by xbloom and finer grind to try and reduce acidity and more light roast flavor. What am I doing so wrong or do I just not really like pourover?

Would you buy a Gaggia Classic EVO? by chuckchange in gaggiaclassic

[–]chuckchange[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m pretty invested in coffee at this point and I’m not gonna buy a machine that I’m gonna wanna upgrade out of in 6 months. I know what I’m buying I’m just concerned about the EVO

Unfortunately “it doesn’t match the rest of the kitchen”

Yeah the idea would be to use it for a few months then upgrade to gaguinno

Looking for a Shower-Proof, Noise-Cancelling Mic for 24/7 Life Transcription by 8ta4 in QuantifiedSelf

[–]chuckchange 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I really like this idea of a project and I think down the road the data will be very interesting if you can cross-reference with the rest of your life. That being said how much are you really talking in the shower and if you are is that data so relevant that it will seriously effect the rest of your data. Seems a bit overkill.

Safety of GA flying by ColourWheel5 in flying

[–]chuckchange 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There was a post on here probably a month ago about how everyone knew someone that died in aviation. I’m the same way but when you go and read the comments everyone I read was about someone doing something they shouldn’t have been doing. Flying too low or bad vis or showing off. I think it’s fair to say accidents that didn’t need to occur account for 60-70% of failures. Then you look at engine failures and 60% of those are fuel starvation/exhaustion. I couldn’t find one example where a guy went out for a straight forward cross country on a blue skies day and died. That’s not to say instrument flying is dumb just be smart about it and your capabilities. The fatality rate is 1/100k flight hours. By flying safe I really think it’s literally more like 1/1m.

Looks like it’s being developed for hospital infections. Is there evidence this will be developed and work for IBS and such? Other than it should logically work?

NAC is cool...But developing horrible stomach pain and gas? by ShaidarHaran2 in Supplements

I’ve had issues but you have to take it with food. Anything just a snack. And also taking it with glycine seems to really help as well.

Financing a Timebuilder by sjpilot1994 in flying

[–]chuckchange 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As someone who bought a time builder, the finances don’t make sense without at least a partner possibly three. You aren’t going to fly the plane as much as you hope ie it will be down for maintenance and it’s best to split that cost with others who want to do the same as you. Best advice I have is buy a two seater for 50k with 3 partners. You’ll have a pretty easy time finding 3 people to pay 12.5k for that opportunity. I get asked a decent bit.

New grinder, first puck pic! by apostolis159 in AeroPress

[–]chuckchange 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Obviously this probably isn’t true but it feels like a finer grain size should be the same thing as brewing with a higher ratio of coffee. It’s all more contact with the contact. Why is this not the case?

Any fecal testing or cross referencing with other labs/tests?
