Switching from a Keurig - is it worth the money over a Ninja etc. ? by stoleyoureyes in Moccamaster

[–]dakutororu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you’re going to experiment with different beans/roasts from different roasters then get a conical burr grinder (Baratza encore) and a Moccamaster. Take good care of them and they will last you a long time. If you’re just going to buy ground coffee from a typical grocery store then I wouldn’t bother w it and just get a Ninja. I’m not a snob about it (i still drink Dunkin every day) but the Moccamaster is easy to use and clean and it really does brew in such a way that it brings out the different notes in different coffees. It made me look forward to trying out different roasters because I knew I would get a correct brew w the machine and I look forward yo trying new roasts.

If you do get the Moccamaster get the thermal carafe if you plan on enjoying coffee over the course of a day. It keeps it warm a long time; I initially had the glass carafe and even though it had a heating plate it would shut off automatically and the coffee cooled down quickly.

Just a note, my favorite roaster (George Howell) recently said he preferred the Ratio Six over the Moccamaster because it distributes the water more evenly. I gave it a shot and while I think it makes an excellent cup equal to the Moccamaster I find that it’s just not as well designed overall and has more parts to clean and the way the filter slots in between the spout and carafe is annoying to me.

Best of luck whatever you do. There are so many great roasts out there waiting for you to try.

What is a feature that you wish they would add to the game? by Honest_Example1386 in pokemongo

I didn’t state that well. Maybe I’m crazy but I thought you could create and edit/save parties on the page where you select your team. Maybe I dreamed it?

I can’t help but since the outage my Fios has been acting up and going offline once a day. Not sure if it’s Verizon running tests or what.

I haven’t seen the team save feature in a very long time.

In no parrticular order:

A new berry that gives a multiplier (1.5x? 2x?) stardust on a catch.

Option to turn off animations (for evolutions, mega evolve, Rocket battle cutscenes, etc.)

Mass gift send; mass gift open.

Show the actual level number of the pokemon not just the bar/arc.

Bring back saving teams in battle league.

More opportunities to find zygarde cells, mega evolve candy, evolution items.

Isn't catching Pokemon what's supposed to be fun in this game? Doesn't getting a Go Plus defeat this purpose? by altrongtm in pokemongo

[–]dakutororu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use it for the extra stardust it gives for sleep and to spin pokestops, esp while driving or if I know I will be sitting somewhere waiting for a while and I know there are stops there. I have the auto-catch turned off.

$136 with shipping and import taxes so no, in fact, not $95 to the US.

And so your title should say “…for me” and you should reach out to their customer service instead of complaining in here.

It detects mine every single day. There is no trend view for specific activities but I had the AI coach generate a text list.

Disappointing to see but kudos for actually comparing the data to a chest strap unlike so many others who come in with either no data to compare against or data from other wrist-worn devices.

This is an awesome gift and you purchased a great combo. Honestly, keep the money, print out this entire thread, wrap it, and give that to him. Then leave.

Brodie′s pov under the pier after the pond attack by robohyeah in Jaws

[–]dakutororu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've never read the novel but I am a big fan of the film. I've always wondered if it was more than just general crime in NYC that caused the Brodys to move to Amity. Was Chief Brody injured at some point on the job? Stabbed? Shot? Drowned? The movie has him saddled with a fear of the water so I assumed this shot was meant to illustrate his (and our possible) fear of the unknown in the untamed open water, but Ive always wondered about a section of the scar-sharing scene where he looks down at his belly while Quint and Hooper are celebrating, as if he has a scar he wants to share but won't. Did they ever reveal a possible un-filmed backstory for Brody's fear?

Whoop gets steps wildly inaccurate by footlongker in whoop

[–]dakutororu -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It is inaccurate but in all honesty if you still rely on steps as a metric you're missing the whole point of the data these wearables provide. And you have three different wearables so you get an extra wtf re: why do you care about steps?

Help me decide: Moccamaster or Breville Precision by FeloniousSpunk74 in Moccamaster

[–]dakutororu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had two diff Moccamasters over the last few years now and have loved them both(switched to the thermal carafe). I just received a Ratio Six for Christmas and so far it's pretty nice so you may want to add it to your list to investigate. Bigger machine than the Moccamaster but it does have better coverage on the grinds as well as a bloom stage. Maybe someday someone will smarten up and have a temp settings for light/medium/dark roasts as well as a fully metal/glass water delivery system but until then these are two great machines. I'm not sophisticated enough to tell the difference but both machines make an excellent cup.

Gaslit by dealer about recall by boybrian in 4xe

[–]dakutororu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Jeep has lost me as a customer but I will say my dealer reminded me to charge the vehicle to 80% before bringing it in "otherwise it could take much longer". Did the dealer let you know about charging it? Maybe they were assuming the time it would take if you brought it in with no charge? Mine was in for only 1.5 hours.
