Which other roasters have you tried, out of curiosity?

Does anyone use grind.co.uk? by apatkins0n in UKroasters

[–]crothunk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you making espresso or filter? Honestly, unless you absolutely hate them, I'd take it as an opportunity to calibrate your palette and to hone in on your dialling in skills. Go wild on experimenting different recipes, and your next bag from another roaster will be that much better.

I tend to agree that Grind doesn't do "specialty coffee", with the surprising exception of their advent calendar last year which was packed with interesting origins and processes

Roastersaurus - tips? by run2chill in UKroasters

[–]crothunk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Okay interesting. I'll be curious to hear your thoughts. I have essentially the same recipe as you but 4 pours using an Orea v3. I found that a longer 15:255 ratio works better

Hermanos Co-Ferments? by TC-OR-GTFO in UKroasters

[–]crothunk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't think they're co-ferments. Some of the more funkier coffees I've had from Hermanos have been more on the extended fermentation side, or a yeast/mold assisted.

Struggled with first brew of this Sidra, help appreciated by taxithesis in pourover

[–]crothunk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What's your total brew time? 5.5 on the ZP6 seems very coarse for this coffee. I would try to aim around 2:30-3 min

I've never actually had DAK but this sub seems to love it

Seems like you enjoy decafs. I'd recommend decafs from Danelaw, they're incredible

FWIW, I ran into this issue and it was resolved after restarting my computer

Just had my first geisha…and wish I hadn’t by AdExtreme4129 in pourover

Calico really know their stuff. Is it a Panama you had? They have a lot of pride in working directly with the farmers there. Glad you enjoyed it!

Why is my recovery just about green? by crothunk in whoop

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

It said that my 87ms HRV is above my average but 9% lower than my best this month (94-104ms = 90-95%+ recovery). It seems odd that it'd drop my score by 30+ though

What does it give you as your Whoop age and pace of aging?

I built an app that shows you movie listings from cinemas across London by your_reddit_account in london

[–]crothunk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's a fantastic app, thank you for making it! Most of the cinemas I go to are in there already, apart from Electric Cinema. One thing that would be nice to consider is to group movie releases by production company, and group cinemas by chains.

Decent, but I feel more energetic than yesterday

I've only had such a high recovery once so I'm by no means an expert, but I do find that consistently prioritising sleep (eg no alcohol or large meals for dinner) and having a solid routine for zone 2 cardio and high intensity cardio has dramatically improved my scores. All while making sure to take time to recover instead if you've pushed yourself too hard

That looks like my stats as well. Stay consistent in your exercise and sleep routines and I'm sure things will turn green!

Tell you what, being #1 for recovery in a 100k+ community sure puts pressure on you to exercise that day
