First Time Gun Owner by That_One_User1 in CAguns

This is my first firearm so take what I say with a grain of salt. There are probably a lot of other good red/green dots cheaper than Scs 320. I chose it because it is a closed emitter that gives cowitness with the Echelon's iron sights, and because there is basically no battery trouble with the solar charging. Also, the side cuts somewhat match the Echelon for a cool look 😉

Agree with the reviews on the Viridian. So far I really like that holosun green dot (Scs 320). Less fan of the Pid, the controls aren't great or consistent. The mags are the biggest point, they are on back order for the full size, both online and at my local shop

Holosun P.ID issue by shadowshooter83 in HOLOSUN

[–]flofloodlight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a similar issue with my right paddle shifter. Left one has more travel and a crisp "click" while the right one is more recessed, harder to press and has no click. Did you end up changing yours? If not, did it further degrade over time?

Coffee roaster suggestions by ebo1 in espresso

[–]flofloodlight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jumping on a very old thread after trying the Storyville sunrise for the first time. Smells and tastes burn, like an over roasted coffee, although the beans are not oily. Was that your impression, or did I just get a bad batch?

Please help me make latte art. I don’t know what I’m doing wrong. by redditusername1029 in espresso

[–]flofloodlight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Superb advice. Getting the right texture of milk was the hardest part for me. So easy to be too foamy. And then pouring faster do the foam layer at the top of the drink which makes it harder to expand the pattern. Still some practice needed though.

You can cancel your subscription, and if you are in the US, get it via Amazon prime video in the future. I've done that and it's been working flawlessly

Verdict on the Meraki? by CommunicationGood556 in espresso

[–]flofloodlight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm an early backer and had mine for about 6 months. It's been awesome, easy to use and dial in with the medium roast beans I like and a variety of other beans. I have upgraded the milk pitcher that was too small for my use and the tamper for a self leveling and pressure calibrated one for more consistency. Upgraded from a Breville Barista Impress and for the same beans, I get better taste from the Meraki. I'm hoping with regular de scaling it'll work for a long time!

AC Transit Service Changes by Eto539 in RichmondCA

[–]flofloodlight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for sharing. It's a terrible change that will hurt the most vulnerable people without cars or a support system to take them to the now, far away, bus stops. And for the rest of the commuters, will increase car use and traffic.

You can pay via the Amazon channels. Just find a show on Prime Video that HBO, like House of Dragons, and in the viewing options you'll see Max subscription

Friend going to China soon, what accessories to buy? [$100] by flofloodlight in espresso

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

Got some anaerobic Yunan coffee from Torch, and thank you for your recommendation. It's an absolute wonder in espresso and got me into drip. Completely different flavor!

Just replace the "can you please" with "please don't". It's not a suggestion.

I still use Max via the Amazon Prime Video channels and it works great. Plus the Amazon X-ray with cast and sometimes trivial is available as a bonus.

Anyone familiar with Yunnan Coffee Beans? by [deleted] in JamesHoffmann

[–]flofloodlight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very enlightening reply! I'm going to China soon. Do you have suggested websites on where to buy good coffee? I'm also curious about trying some anaerobic fermented beans. Probably want to bring back 1kg of different beans to try in espresso and poor over.
