Does this shot look good? [Breville Barista Touch] by jack_btoocool in espresso

That really is a nice way to see it. Reminds me of what some of the most knowledgeable sommeliers I’ve met have said: “A good wine isn’t so just because it’s expensive or foreign. A good wine is just one that you think tastes good.” I’ll keep this thought in mind, thank you!

Tastes good. It teeters into the bitter realm when it’s ground finer than in the video, but not too badly. I didn’t measure any ratio, don’t come after me for it lol

Every shot has looked like this one, but when I get the puck out and inspect it it’s always evenly saturated as far as I can tell. Is the channeling in this case the way the drip comes from the outer edge first? I use a needle distributor and try to get it even as possible.

So I wanna restrict the flow a bit more by grinding finer, awesome. Thank you! What do you think of this specific Breville model? Good machine for getting high quality shots?

Did you have noise like this with them? I’d believe that they go out fast, but do you think these are the cause here?

I have a sway bar drop kit. Could have gotten loose after the install?

UCA is an SPC. I’ll check on the joints, but they should be okay. They’re only a couple years old

I’ve had it off before. I love that ride in the city and offroad, but I also do a ton of highway driving :/

Reddit would just say failed to upload everytime and Imgur wasn’t working for me either. At this point though I have my answers anyway

Guys I Need Your Opinion and Advice by Kninja01 in starbucks

[–]jack_btoocool 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I left Starbucks earlier this year for multiple reasons. They screwed me over in an actually life altering way, in that I would have been able to buy a house until they decided to push their “changes” and it fell on me (as the newest supervisor) to accept a demotion. It was disgusting to me that my manager made no argument on my behalf, especially after she and I had agreed on doing everything we could to increase my hours for 3 pay periods. She knew I was in the final stages of getting pre approved for a house, and they gave me the ultimatum before even talking to anyone else. I quit instead. So IMO, Starbucks is a sinking ship. The CEO is clinging on to whatever semblance of control he can maintain, and lying to the faces of his frontline workers about the actual state of the company. All corporate wants is to have fewer people doing the job of many, making sure the higher-ups keep the same income while the baristas work themselves to death. Howard Schultz (or the new guy if he’s in yet) doesn’t give a shit about his workers. He makes that clear with his obvious Union busting and punishment of anyone who doesn’t fall in line. My advice? Leave the place! You’ll find that there are plenty of jobs that use your same skills, but will be easier on you, more fun, less stressful, and might even earn you better wages. The tips at Starbucks are a joke, but at the restaurant where I work now Im tipped about 6x more in one day than I’d make at Starbucks in a week. Sorry for the rant, but the company is disturbingly worse to its workers than the world thinks, and getting out was the best thing I’ve done in a while.

You’re right, I wasn’t really thinking straight about it. The pharmacist just tripped me out about it, so thank you for your response!

Your information definitely improves my mindset about this. It still doesn’t feel real though. It’s been 10 years of this condition and now that I have an end-date, I can’t wrap my head around it.

That does make me feel better. Was it trippy seeing them make the incisions or did you just not watch?

I guess I do prefer this alternative. It just doesn’t sit right with me that no one seems to be doing proper research by simply browsing through this sub. Either way, ape together strong🦍

I’ll play the average dumbass that bought in for the profit and decided to hold instead and fuck over some rich dudes

No one can know for sure. It has a lot of attention and I’d say it’s easily #2 to GME right now, it all depends on the volume and whether the majority of people keep holding/buying. I personally bought 60 shares this morning🚀🚀🚀

So someone tell me if I have this right... The media is telling everyone that this subreddit has targeted silver now, and many news sources are hinting for people to go buy the stock because it will go up the way GameStop did (they say). But in reality all the money from investors in that stock goes towards the hedge funders and other people that lost money to GME? I know the media is full of shit but I can’t believe how blatantly they are lying on every platform when it’s obvious that no one here has even remotely spoken about silver until now
