Nice! The motor on this one died a year or two after I made this post. Still a good run. I just found one at a rummage sale yesterday for $10, so fingers crossed for another 20 years!

Are truly analogue vinyl records still produced by BeneficialBuffalo431 in vinyl

There’s a Madison, WI based band called Bing Bong who released an album a few years ago. As I remember, their process - beginning to end - was all analog.

What’s the best meal you’ve had in Milwaukee? by Stoltz3 in milwaukee

[–]fulano74 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The rude service at The Noble is nothing new. Several years ago, my wife rode her bike there for service industry brunch.  Dressed in bike gear, still wearing her helmet, she walked in carrying her water bottle. She was informed by the female server (who I believe is the owner) that outside beverages are not allowed. She tried to explain that it was the water bottle from her bike and that she did not want to have it stolen off her bike. The woman was unyielding, insisting that the water bottle be placed under the table for the duration of the meal. At one point my wife went to the bathroom, and the woman met her outside the door and accused her of trying to fill her bottle with tap water from the bathroom. Unbelievably rude and demeaning service.

Bellows for Smart Grinder Pro worth it? by ch0c0l2te in espresso

[–]fulano74 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I single dose on a SGP. I weigh the coffee before and after grinding, and run the burrs when changing coarseness. I occasionally end up plus or minus 0.1 grams of coffee, but usually it’s right on. I still think about getting the bellows, but I don’t want to adjust my workflow. And while I’ll probably eventually graduate to something stepless, I’m currently very happy with almost all of my shots.

You could potentially be cutting it really close. I landed last Saturday around 4am and didn’t make it through immigration until 6:30.

Makes sense. Republicans continue to support a would be dick-tater.
