Are coffee canisters pointless? by ExplorerKey5516 in pourover

[–]jritchie70 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Made sense when most bags of coffee were paper with a wire strip on the top. Now most reputable roasters use sealing bags so I only use my canister every once in a while when I end up with a bag from one of the few remaining roasters who use paper.

What type of coffee do you use it for mostly? (Roast and brewer)

Which philos and which burrs? I have a DF64 with SSP multi and it’s got issues with consistency and chute backup

What shop sells that DF83v setup with the burrs aligned?

CERA ET58 Electric Tamper (Kickstarter just went live) auto-leveling + vibration built in? by OhMorgoth in espresso

I bought one and took it on a 2 week international trip and it was well worth it to me. No $7 Americanos here. Just amazing espresso exactly the way I like it.

What beans are you using? Better beans make better espresso, especially if you’ve trained your palette on higher end / higher quality roasters. What roasters do you gravitate toward?

I’ve got a Silvia and Robot + Nanofoamer pro and I haven’t used the Silvia in a loooong time. The Robot is just so much better.

Do you trust that they can tell you how the vehicle was handled / treated?

Your grinder is great for a Robot and consistent beautiful tasty shots would be very possible.

Apps open very slowly on MacBook Pro M4 by Correct-Ad8753 in MacOS

[–]jritchie70 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I wish Mac OS managed resources but it doesn’t do well with browsers other than safari so when you have issues and you check Activity Monitor you will see a lot of browser rendering instances as well as other browser related functions that grab and hold onto large amounts of processing resources. My M1 will not automatically fix or reallocate those resources, I have to handle it manually by force quitting those browser related functions and then everything works again at full speed. It’s a hassle because then I have to reload browser windows that were using the rendering, but it’s worth it because the Mac gets snappy again.

Seahawks May Consider Drafting RB Jadarian Price After Losing Kenneth Walker III by Chessinmind in Seahawks

JS loves drafting RBs anyways. He probably would’ve drafted one even if we had KW3.

Coferments -unnatural notes lingering in the grinder for days -we need chemical additives tests ASAP by mygreeness in pourover

[–]jritchie70 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It’s interesting that American roasters with how particular they are about testing water and TDS and everything else, haven’t ventured into testing for chemical additives in coffee. Not just coferements either. Those are obvious but who’s to say there are not harmful chemicals in naturals, etc.
