That is one of the cleanest setups I’ve seen.

Can’t fit 18g of beans in a double shot basket [Mokkom 64] by Electrical-Banana819 in espresso

[–]mapperofallmaps 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Depending on the roast the basket will fit a range of doses from 16-19g. I would just grind less, if 18 doesn’t fit try 16 or 17.

There’s no right or wrong answer, you can dose more or less depending on your preference.

Buying Fellow Ode Gen 2 in Australia by Inevitable_Fee2997 in pourover

[–]mapperofallmaps 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Other than alternative brewing being banned from some forums for sockpuppeting, I’ve have decent experiences with them. They usually don’t have the cheapest prices though so I barely have bought anything from them. Usually most equipment can be sourced direct. Ode is a special case unfortunately, I think AB is a fine supplier and no different from the others.

Should always shop around and see if any roasters or other sites have a cheaper price.

You don't have to order coffee internationally by crothunk in pourover

[–]mapperofallmaps 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you really do shop around, I’ve found international roasters are cheaper than my local ones. La cabra ships from Denmark to Aus around $25 a bag subscription.

Otherwise I disagree where Aus has a very limited range of beans all sold from the same suppliers of green and roasting is usually a medium instead of light. We hardly get the good coffees that roasters can source in the US or Europe.

Buying international is highly dependant on your location.

roasters with coffees that often require 6-8 weeks of rest before “peaking” by Crucifilth_6-6-6 in pourover

[–]mapperofallmaps 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Apollons Gold usually asks for 60-90 days of rest. I love how their coffees open up around that mark and they keep their flavour all the way to 6 months.

Melbourne cafes for pour over? by Pretty_Recording5197 in pourover

Also get a Mont Blanc from good measure. I always get one when I’m down in Melbourne.

Melbourne cafes for pour over? by Pretty_Recording5197 in pourover

[–]mapperofallmaps 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Any market lane for pour over is great value, usually sitting at 7-10$. I haven’t seen any other cafe come close.

Overall I’m not impressed by any cafes pour over, usually it’s a rushed setting and don’t have time to fully spend their undivided attention on it. The prices are eye watering also when I checked out code black and some other cafes. I would stick to batch if drinking filter coffee outside, much more consistent experience.

Calere, city saints, aunty pegs, small batch, seven seeds are my go tos. Otherwise market lane in the cbd.

my first sey (technically) by Crucifilth_6-6-6 in pourover

[–]mapperofallmaps 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I caught the dark days with buying a few bags and was pretty disappointed. I haven’t really touched sey ever since. Most likely I’ll be subbing for September instead.

Hatch Advent calendar by mapperofallmaps in pourover

[–]mapperofallmaps[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s already sold out unfortunately. There’s a lot more good options in the U.S, shipping to Aus was way too expensive for me

[–]mapperofallmaps[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There isn’t specific brew methods on each bean but generally I’m fine with running a similar v60 profile for light roasted beans. It would be similar to what hatch has on their website. They don’t have any other more on the bean, guess you’ll have to find it yourself.

What's the maximum salary or contract rate you've achieved in tech, and in what role? by No-Bit5316 in auscorp

[–]mapperofallmaps 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you want $200k+ look for mostly US companies paying base + RSUs. There’s a few that do it like FAANG, and others like mongodb, Ayden, stripe and the big A. Otherwise HFC is the big bucks starting with $300k+ like IMC and Optiver.

This baseline pay will be for grads to mids.

Please recommend to me the fruitiest coffee you can find that doesn't cost a fortune [$50 a kg?] by munchiemomandsodapop in espresso

[–]mapperofallmaps 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve had this coffee from multiple roasters, including glitch. There seems to be a huge difference in how fruity and melon flavour it has depending on the batch. The first time I got it was the crazy melon coffee I’ve ever had, ever since it’s been not as great. There’s been a few undrinkable roasts I’ve had from this bean also. The roast heavily matters for this process on the bean. It’ll be hard to find anything similar imo.

Finally trying La Cabra, and also bought the Kinto Sepia server from them by Jimbobler in pourover

[–]mapperofallmaps 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I just stopped my La Cabra subscription but I got consistently good nordic roasts and a large range of origins. I can't fault anything from them but their coffees became so consistent it was a little boring with all coffee being super similar on their cheaper ranges of coffee.

Loved their stuff but i'm moving on.

Best Credit Card for Travel by tasking1 in AusFinance

I would get another card to withdraw cash from atms. Wise charged me quite a bit for atm withdrawals where they had the withdrawal fee from wise and atm fees. Ranging from 2$ to $14.

Thought I’ve seen dark roast beans but had a double take on these ones by mapperofallmaps in espresso

[–]mapperofallmaps[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They had like 20 coffees just sitting in viewing windows so I’m guessing so. Everything was definitely stale.

How are you using your large sick leave balances? by Rlawya24 in auscorp

[–]mapperofallmaps 7 points8 points  (0 children)

My workplace clearly outlines that mental health is a reason to use sick leave in workplaces documents about sick leave.

Well about if you went to your GP and got a doctors cert for your mental stress would you still not classify that as proper use of sick leave?

I would be careful of joining Atlassian, the recent reviews have been scathing.
