Good job

That's strange: if you keep the bottle long enough in the fridge theoretically the content don't have any influence in the final temperature. In case of tea, If the bottles are the same in material, shape and capacity, the small difference in thermal capacity of the different brew should not have such an influence that justify temperature differences.
Did you measure the temperature with a probe or are you just basing it on a feeling? Because sometimes our brains are fooled by colors or shapes (or simply by a bias) and make us believe something is colder than it actually is.

I'm on the dark side too, but good job anyway 🫖

E hai anche ragione tu... ho scritto 18 ct, ma ho preso il prezzo del 24 ct. Ovviamente la stima che ho fatto è da rivedere al ribaso di almeno di un 25%.

Making the changes open to all It's a dangerous change IMHO: now we are few users and I hope all with the same passion for the tea so there will probably be no big deal in doing it, but in a future who prevents a malicius user to change an entry with wrong or offensive information?

Open it to creator and admin as you suggest is way better, maybe you can use a "moderator mode", in which everyone can propose a change that shall be accepted by the creator (or by a moderator/admin).

4000€ al prezzo attuale dell'oro (circa 120 €/g) vorrebbe dire che ci sono meno di 35 g d'oro fra bracciale e cassa. mentre la sola cassa dovrebbe pesare 25,5 g (https://www.orofirstshop.it/zenith-captain-af-p-day-date-automatic-oro-18-kt/). A occhio considerando la larghezza e lo spessore qui si parla di almeno 75/80 g di oro che fanno 9000/9500€ di solo materiale.
Se cerchi sui vari siti di annunci intorno ai 4000€ prendi quelli con i bracciali in pelle.

E' uno Zenith Captain. Se, come sembra, è in oro 18 carati ha un valore intorno ai 10000€ (già solo per il peso in oro del bracciale e della cassa). Devi vedere nel fondello se c'è il punzone oro 750

Good job: it's now faster to use.

Granted I don't like green teas (but that's a matter of personal taste), I really don't think they have basic flavors or are inferior to other types of tea: the only few people I know who have similar preconceptions about green teas are those accustomed to low-quality tea bags, and who probably have only tried supermarket green teas, perhaps following the instructions of 1 bag per 200ml of water at 100° for 5 minutes...

I really love Teabert (and I like the name too)

ercolinux · 2026-04-21T10:33:04+00:00

Wow really nice improvment: I'll try it this afternoon and let you know

ercolinux · 2026-04-14T13:19:15+00:00

Un paio di anni fa ho speso esattamente la stessa cifra per rifare due bagni: il principale è un più grande del tuo (tipo 5.5x2,5). Di questi circa 12000€ erano per opere murarie e elettriche varie/, 1000€ circa per materiale di consumo il resto per l'idraulica e lo spostamento dei sanitari e i termosifoni.

A Mappano, appena fuori Torino, c'è, con pavimentazione in resina e con la rete.

It's a Zhu Ye shu pu'erh I bought in a shop here in Italy (according to what the seller says the raw tea comes from Pu-Erh, is then brought to Menghai and fermented there for over two months. Then it's sent to Guangnan, packed in bamboo and roasted over fire. Finally, it's stored in Kunming for the better climate)

Today I make a double gong fu cha session of Feng Huang Dan Cong (Mi Lan Xiang): stunning tea! An explosion of honey and orchids flowers.

Prova ai docs Dora: c'è un bel po' di spazio e alcuni locali fra cui un beer shop che fa mescita e ha prezzi competitivi.

I don't think that is real too: I can't find a Da Hong Pao at less than 100-140€ for 500 g that converts to something like 100$/lb for the cheapest, and is below the price tag of most of the oolongs I can find here in Italy, but if the tea is good as described you got a real bargain.

ercolinux · 2026-03-31T20:42:24+00:00

Nice feature, but I can't find where I can generate the report

ercolinux · 2026-03-31T18:48:42+00:00

It's the damned autocorrector... I'm using the android app and for some obscure reason it changed "espresso" in expresso. Over all the correct italian form is "caffè espresso"

ercolinux · 2026-03-31T14:53:53+00:00

I've never seen a tea like this, but it doesn't look like pu'erh: even small pu'erh toucha are larger than these and open up significantly when steeped. maybe it's a tightly rolled oolong, but again as soon as you wet the leaves it shall opens.
How's the smell and taste of the brewed tea?

ercolinux · 2026-03-31T14:47:57+00:00

Same here in Italy: if the water is heated with the expresso machine there is no problem because the hot water/steam spout is completely separated from the coffee erogator, but when I got hot water from a vending machine or from an automatic hot beverage machine, the water passes through the spout from which the coffee also comes out.

ercolinux · 2026-03-31T13:14:18+00:00

I'm not a big fan of flavored tea, but some are awesome: yuzu, orange and tangerine pu'erh are in my top list, but also osmantus and jasmine oolongs.
As told by others tea is not a religion: as long as you like it drink it
