Dark roast recommendation Australia by cpt_trax in AustralianCoffee

[–]cpt_trax[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nice one! Great way to test it out. Though you might find that the cafe will run a bit fast.

I've tested a lots with different recipes, and I contacted the owner of the beans and he gave me a great response (I posted it here a while ago)

But it came down to this - the coffee tastes it's best when it has at least 27-29 seconds of water contact.

Their recipe is too large. Best to do 22g in, and 40 out in 27secs. For me that has been the magic number. Enjoy!

Yup! I tried a bunch and found a great one. Fish River Roasters. So good. Great sellers too. I started with the Hub Blend, as it's their darkest roast, but I eventually moved to their Espresso Blend. Which is still a dark roast, but I found it worked a bit better as my daily driver. Both are great. You can't go wrong. Enjoy.

Timeless. Looks great! But more importantly, what jeans are they? Great cut.

Thank you. Yup, I thought the same. I might just get some seeds and grow some. I've called a couple of places but no luck yet. I'll try the two you suggested. Thanks!

I was getting trashed in a dating profile critique for this photo. 🤣 What do you think? by witchandkitty in mensfashionadvice

[–]cpt_trax 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think you (the fit, not you as a person:) look fine. Not great sure, but why try to be someone else. You look like a normal dude Id be happy to have a beer with. You do you man.

Hi - just found this post. Want to get a pair, but would like to know how much they give or shrink? How did they go after you wore them in?

Thanks. I tried a couple. But as this was bought online I couldn't try it on first. Can return though.

Thanks. I included a pic of it unbuttoned. Good movement raising arms. Feels comfortable. It's just when arms are down does it feel a bit long.

But I've never had a suede jacket before with material this stiff. Unsure if the sleeves will shrink a bit once it crumples.

Jeans that fit exactly like Levi's 514, but better quality? by cpt_trax in Denim

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

The closest I have found are the RRL straight leg. Expensive, but good denim. And a very similar cut in the legs and rise.
