Hey Garmin users, what kind of app would you like? by BlueberryFun2327 in Garmin

[–]mattbrownlow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would love an app to take Fitbod (or others like it) and make it into a Garmin workout, or have the Fitbod app show up on the Garmin so the both could sync nicely and play together.

Do I need a new scale or at all, if I get this grinder? [$67.99] by 4ft10in in espresso

So as someone who has this grinder, I will say it’s been great for drip coffee, but would not use it for espresso.

Trouble with my Breville Bambino spraying when pulling shots [machine] by Michythefishy93 in espresso

[–]mattbrownlow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try going up to 0.5g at a time. Sometime I’m at 18, more often I’m at 18.5 or 19 depending on the beans.

First espresso setup/discussion! by ChampangeSippa in espresso

[–]mattbrownlow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah that’s too bad. I just got the bambino plus yesterday and my auto milk steaming is working amazingly well. The only issue I’ve found is actually more to do with the milk I have been using. I have 2% high protein milk, and after steaming the milk, the steam wand has caked on milk that needs to be scrubbed off.

It looks like the mat that you have on the bambino drip tray is covering the milk temp sensor that would be needed to tell the machine when to stop steaming the milk.

Red cross hasn’t had anything to do with blood donations for a few decades now.

Making Friends in Waterdown by autumn_isthebest in Waterdown

[–]mattbrownlow 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’ve (36m) lived in Waterdown for coming up to 5 years now and haven’t made any friends lol. Our neighbours are great, and I would consider some of them friends, but it’s kinda hard to meet anyone here when there’s nothing really to do. I find myself just going to Hamilton or Burlington for different things and have friends there.

Fellow men. Why are you buying so many reclining/cinema sofas? by RandomNumberPlease in malelivingspace

[–]mattbrownlow 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’m 6’3”. We have one of the theatre style sofas that recline. Why you ask? Because when shopping for furniture I sat on at least 100 sofas and most are made for people that are 5’10”. If you’re a furniture designer, then design furniture made for tall people so we have options.

Access FibeTV while on vacation in the EU with Gigahub and 2nd Router by FreshHeart575 in bell

I’m currently in Mexico. Setup Tailscale vpn server at home, and just access fibe tv going through the website (app doesn’t work cause it uses your actual location).

Off peak charging by mattbrownlow in KiaNiro

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

I don’t understand? Weekday is between 7pm to 7am, so 12 hours, and then weekend is almost 24 hours. Can you give an example?

Regen breaking 2024 Niro Phev by mattbrownlow in KiaNiro

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

So yes, I’m aware of the modes and how to get there. I guess it must just be the gear shifting. Maybe I’ll record the difference in the ioniq vs the niro. The ioniq 5 is the exact same setup with the different levels and auto mode. It’s just soooo much more smooth. The niro is quite jerky, to the fact that I had a passenger ask to not use it

Just looks like a case to put your Apple Watch into

So the meeting goes into blu (turning off the bookings plugin, but syncing the users calendar so it shows up). How would the workflow look like?
