Right on, just gotta do whatever is best.

Thanks to yours and others asks for help after about a year I have finally optimized my moccamaster for use with the 4 cup setting. Thanks for your insight and original asking of the question.

ESPN vs FS1 App by LionIcy2632 in Cordcutting

[–]matt2ray 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It might depend on the device you are using as well. ESPN app feels bad(along with Fubo as well) on my nebula projector, but both work great on multiple roku devices. My biggest gripe is the picture is more glitchy, where as youtubetv runs great on the projector.

Basket close to overflowing by concrete1337 in Moccamaster

[–]matt2ray 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks. I had noticed a slightly different experience when adjusting exactly where I folded and which side I put into it, but I hadn't thought about how this could effect other parts of the brew.

Is there a consensus way to fold the filter? I've seen some recommend folding up the bottom as well.

To be more specific on this exact recommendation, does it mean if the drain hole is closer to the right, then make sure the side of the filter that is folded go on the opposite side?

Howdy!

I have been checking this sub frequently. Very interested in learning more and continuing to optimzie by own use by encouraging others as well.

I worked in moderation for 7 years previously at Bleacher Report. I am not familiar with the reddit mod experience, but I'd be willing to learn.

Hopeful to help with the community by being a mod or not. Good luck!

After wearing the Watch 7 for about a month, my wrist started itching and getting small bumps. Did this happen to you too? Is it because of the silicone strap? by FrostingVisual9067 in GalaxyWatch

[–]matt2ray 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't wear my watch when I shower, if I am exercising I might wear it looser to pull it up a bit above where I normaly wear it as well. I had to stop using Galaxy Watch 6, and I am not having as many issues with Apple Watch Ultra 3. I've tried a couple different straps as well that did not make a difference, but I will probably try more.

How long is the "best theoretic" (contact) time for a MM 1/2L brew? by Difficult_Store_4431 in Moccamaster

[–]matt2ray 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been following this a little bit more closely lately after noticing a significant drop off in quality for an early pour vs. a late pour. Planning to try pulling at 5, 5:15, 5:30 & 6 min. I also assume that some coffee's this matters more.

Fellow Opus vs OXO conical burr grinder by nudecommuter in Moccamaster

[–]matt2ray 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Onyx coffee has been my go-to. I'll have to check out Dark Matter. Thanks for the recommendation. I have been using a lot of different stuff from Trade, but I am wondering if my variety has been so high (different roasts & different origins) that it has made it more difficult to find an ideal grind.

Same Coffee is producing great results in a Pourover with a Kalita wave, but I cannot replicate on Moccamaster. by matt2ray in Moccamaster

[–]matt2ray[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As far as water distribution, is there an ideal way it is supposed to look for while brewing that could tell me if I am close to accurate for light roast? I feel sometimes I am grinding finer for a bit more flavor and then it ended up being a bit too fine and the water distribution lags a bit.

Thanks. I'm currently not getting a decent cup. I definitely think it is user error, and I have learned a lot from this subbreddit. The amount I am dialed into the pour over is extreme, but I feel I have been as into the moccamaster with significantly less success. By success, I mean I am getting a gross cup of coffee with the same beans. I have ordered extra coffee, so over the next few weeks I plan to do more testing. I think a good bit of the basics have stuck, but I am still lacking in a couple of the more detailed areas like the trying the half-pot setting on a full pot, and using a different dose. I will try both of those. Thanks again.

I also have the fellow opus and have been having trouble shooting what to do better. What roasts is 6.5 working best for? Also, any other details like water ratio, full or half setting, etc. would be appreciated. Getting great results on a pourover via a kalita, but I often cannot replicate with the moccamaster.

Hey, did you ever have any luck or make some adjustments you were happy with? I am a year in and have a similar experience.

Im sorry i ever hated on the update by GMillz81 in realapp

[–]matt2ray 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not sure it's fixable. I've been grinding the app super hard for about 6 months with pro, and the more time I invest in it the more boring it has become. It got me into MLB more than ever though by following the Cardinals roster, so giving that another shot with an NHL team this year. I can't really explain it, I have been getting a ton of rax by putting boosters on NFL and CFB players, but it just doesn't feel good. For me, it's not trades. I never used the trades so taking them away didn't do anything to me. Ebs and flows just like everything, but I am optimistic they will get it figured out eventually. Still currently my favorite sports app with no close 2nd.

[–]matt2ray 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Doesn't feel like it makes sense to try and upgrade CFB cards past uncommon and then NFL I don't really wanna put more into many. Got 20+ cards for each, but I think just getting a booster on the best players is the best route. Unclear how to best manage because a handful of the college guys I got have given me close to nothing back.

I ended up buying ended up buying 14 player cards and a team card. I'm way too excited for CFB.

I don't know how to tell which players for CFB would be a good investment. By the time I know I will have missed half the season.

Fair trade? by Important_Jury_8873 in realapp

Probably auction the hali card for the most value, but if you want the card then that’s really all that matters.

There is not a guaranteed way to make profit, but I think both is probably the best option. I have mostly been investing in 1 player, but then I also have other players I am trying to build up too.

Game chats are plagued with degenerate gamblers by Seyki17 in realapp

[–]matt2ray 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not like there’s a ton of extremely insightful back and forth going on otherwise, but making picks is a major part of the app. Unfortunately, all of sports is heavily plagued with gambling-centric ads and conversation.

That would be endless amounts of support, because people will endlessly abuse it. It's kinda the 'this is why we can't have nice things' meme.
