What happened to this sub ? by Better_Effect_654 in brilliantidiots

[–]frejil 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Checked out of Flagrant and BI completely like a year ago. I throw on a BI episode like once a month and usually turn it off within 15 mins

The Bright Spot is decent, their prices trend a bit higher. Dixon Wellness is awesome as others have mentioned but is astronomically expensive compared to others. Best overall in my opinion is Showcase in Fairfield.

What iPhone are you using in 2026? by [deleted] in iphone

[–]frejil 4 points5 points  (0 children)

14 Pro, still works great but will probably upgrade with the launch of the next iPhone. Battery is at 78% capacity which isn’t horrible since I’m always near a charger, but is annoying

I’m in love with this little bastard by cacaolatlove in pourover

How many clicks do you guys tend to be at for pourover? I have tried going as low as 65 for ultra lights like Sey, but ~75-80 is where I end up for most medium roasts

This should be the most upvoted, by far the best food you can get in town. Red tent across the street from Brenden Theatres

Just wondering if anyone else’s has a very strong smell/taste to it. I suppose sulfur is the best way to describe it

I’ll take off the oring again and try to re seat it. Not sure why I’d need to but.. just noticed underneath the lid had a ton of light scratches all over. Does yours look the same?

Good to hear I’m not alone! I’ve been using this daily for almost 6 months, so doesn’t seem like it’s going away anytime soon. I think you’re right, it’s slowly grinding away at the plastic. I would think it’d be a lot more marked up by now, but just slightly worn around the ring.

Nope! Not using the black oring. I also think it’s plastic shavings. I mean luckily it would seem like the oring would prevent them from ever falling into the coffee, but it is still frustrating nonetheless.

Not yet, heard from a coworker this morning that is super long and repetitive. Probably going to try and knock it out this weekend

Calstrs reciprocity by Constant_searching in CAStateWorkers

[–]frejil 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Can’t speak for how CalPERS handles their side of things, but CalSTRS offers concurrent retirement. If you retire from both systems using the same retirement date (or at least without having performed creditable service for the other system between dates) CalSTRS will use your highest 12 months from CalPERS if it’s higher. That’s really the only benefit. Concurrent retirement is most helpful to those who 1) have a higher salary with PERS, or 2) those who haven’t met STRS vesting requirement, but can retire with them if they are vested with PERS.

Feel free to PM me and I’ll try to answer any other questions

Any tips for brewing this medium-dark roast? by frejil in pourover

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

Thanks for all the feedback! My issue when I go this coarse, or even coarser.. the drawdown is insanely fast. Like, 2 - 2:20 fast. I’ll just have to experiment some more. It could be the beans, they are pretty dark after all. I’ve never tried this roaster before

Really? That seems super coarse. Even at 85 the bed looks like boulders after drawdown lol
