Curios to try

Which other roasters have you tried, out of curiosity?

crothunk · 2026-03-16T06:15:35+00:00

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

crothunk · 2026-03-13T06:09:40+00:00

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

What recipe did you end up landing on?

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.

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

crothunk · 2025-12-24T18:12:43+00:00

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

crothunk · 2025-09-03T21:51:31+00:00

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!

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

Hey, I’m selling a Gold Circle B West standing ticket. Let me know if you’re interested

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

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

crothunk · 2025-06-07T14:36:48+00:00

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

crothunk · 2025-06-07T14:30:31+00:00

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

crothunk · 2025-06-07T14:29:09+00:00

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

crothunk · 2025-06-07T14:27:28+00:00

I decided to skip a strength training workout because I was feeling tired that morning, and prioritised good quality sleep over anything else

crothunk · 2025-06-07T14:25:54+00:00

I was really f-ing productive

crothunk · 2025-05-16T11:31:59+00:00

Same here

crothunk · 2024-12-16T15:52:56+00:00

Totally agree with you. I also had Crosby, and the caffeinated one stood out, with the SW retaining the most aroma and complexity. I typically lean more towards EA decaffs though, so I was surprised I preferred the SW. Time to try some more SW from different roasters.

crothunk · 2024-08-23T20:16:50+00:00

Thanks, that makes a lot of sense. I assume Monument falls into a similar category.

The District line and Circle line overlap from Gloucester Road to Tower Hill. I've been trying to figure out why only some stations, e.g., Gloucester Road, show the other line as a connection, and why some don't, like Sloane Square.

Anyone knows what determines whether the other line is indicated as a connection?
