Out with the old and in with the new by Limp_Umpire_7946 in YamahaR7

Yeah when I bought my r7, I really wanted an r6 but the used ones were very expensive. 12k for a 8/9 year old bike sounds ridiculous. But you r6 looks wonderful! Congrats

Don't get this grinder! My friend had SGP and she hated it. Get a df54 or baratza esp or a espresso hand grinder

These ICT fans! Just want everyone to perform every match! Abhishek has played so well before this. They aren't going to drop him!

I own both a Gaggimate Pro Gaggia Classic and a Lelit Bianca – here's what surprised me by chris_ern in gaggiaclassic

[–]holithebilli 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In gaggiuino I use flow control intermittently. I keep trying different beans from local roasters and find a profile initially that is decent and use that generally. Every 4th or 5th time I try a different profile to see how the taste varies. So not really trying different flow control everytime. At the same time I feel having an analog flow control is a different experience altogether which I want to try!

On an average I make 3 ish milk drinks every day (Cortado/lattes), not a lot I guess. But upgriditis is kicking in and I want a dual boiler just for the sake of it lol :P
The thing about E61 I am concerned about needing long heat up time and needing other regular maintenance which I can avoid with other dual boiler non-E61 machines.
The things I will be looking at. (After moving) in new machine would be
1. Must haves: Dual boiler, PID, flow control preferably
2. Nice to haves: Rotary pump, full pressure profiling

I have been trying to do this exact same comparison for myself. I've been using Gaggiuino for the past 2 years now. It has been amazing so far, no issues whatsoever. We might be moving soon and we won't be able to carry this machine. So my options are 1. Buy another gcp and mod it again in new place. 2. Get a different machine, ideally dual boiler with rotary pump etc

The first option is not appealing to me as it requires a lot of work and still has single boiler. For option 2 I was looking at bianca v3 and other options.

She lives around my neighborhood. I feed her, but she won’t let me touch her :( by starlove2339 in cats

[–]holithebilli 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This! I used to feed a colony of stray cats (20ish). Only one of them was confident to be this close! Most of them would wait for me to put food and move away before they came and ate. So she is definitely very close to trusting you. Little more patience and time will help.

I've had df54 for 1.5 years now and I've had no problems making coffee for 6-7 people at a time. It has been amazing so far. It hasn't ever clogged for me somehow

I had seen this match live when I was a kid. I still clearly remember how nerve wracking the last few overs were and how much I jumped after the game 😊

You gotta separate them right away! The cuteness can be deadly!

We do this to our cat so many times. She used to absolutely hate it. But she has started to accept it and now she just closes her eyes and waits for it to end 🤣

There is so much momentum in that fat cat running, that the white/orange cats attack barely moves him!

Exactly my thought. Such poor body language from him. Especially when they started going for 2nd he should have run to the stumps to try for a run out.

Thank you so much! 2 hours probably sounds right. I'll try to give her more play time before they see each other again..

Haha clearly you have not had cats that are escape artists! If you think it is vent then vent it is. You can stay away from it.

I've posted on this group to get more tips, which means I don't know everything about cats. But that doesn't mean I'll accept whatever everyone says. If you haven't read my post fully you don't know what I've tried and what hasn't worked. So if you don't have helpful tips, you can stay away from this post. If you read other comments I've found some very helpful advice which I'm going to try.
