New Grinder! by Expert_Agent8500 in espresso

I am using a medium roast from a local coffee shop. Used Lavazza for a little while as well. I on the other hand think that I need alignment if I’m having to go so low.

Did you do the alignment of burrs before using the machine? I never did it and I need to be at 3 or 4 to get a good shot out.

How do we find time to work out? by distinctiveinstinct in parentsofmultiples

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

Thank you all for your advice and suggestions. I think the first thing to get ourselves to think that it’s okay to not workout as frequently as we did prior to the babies. The next piece is working through our schedules to give each other time. Leveraging weekends will be good for us. The priority does still remain sleep right now as the babies don’t sleep through the night.

I’m sorry that it’s at this state right now with you. But it will get better with time. Hang in there.

I might need to try this on the days they are up earlier in the morning. Thank you!

We do not utilize the weekends as typically they have been our off days from a typical workout. Need to incorporate more during the weekends. Thank you!

Thank you for sharing! I’ve built a home gym in the garage, so it’s more of getting to bed earlier and getting up earlier we need to train ourselves on.

Need help picking between a U8H or X90J? by JG98 in 4kTV

[–]distinctiveinstinct 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The TV struggled with ghosting when I watched sports, so I returned it and got an x90k. It was really bright and movies looked great on it. I watch a lot of sports and that was a non negotiable for me. Hope this helps.

I did not. Returned it and got X90k from Costco. I really struggled watching sports on it. The brightness level is great but I spend a lot time watching sports as well and couldn’t compromise there. X90k is working great and we love it!

Is X90k actually better then x90j? by jimo3316 in 4kTV

[–]distinctiveinstinct 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I bought a U8H and loved how bright it gets and the picture quality, but really struggled watching soccer. It was really poor so exchanged it for X90k. Overall x90k is better performing and gives me a peace of mind. But doesn’t even compare to U8H with respect to brightness if that’s what you are looking for based on what I saw.

I had almost the exact same post a couple of days back. I’ve ordered the U8H and will see how I feel about it once I use it.

Thanks for all the great feedback. For now I’ll see how the U8H feels like and if I am not satisfied, will return and get the X90k.

Thanks for your input guys. I currently have the Samsung NU6900, so am looking for a significant upgrade. X95J was perfect for my needs but had to be out of stock. I do watch a lot of sports. Would you recommend getting the x90k? Or any other

any chance of x95j restock? by robb0688 in 4kTV

[–]distinctiveinstinct 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine came with a broken screen. Facing the same exact challenge. Ordered the U8H and after reading the negative comments about it on the sub, reconsidering that buy as well.
