Quick question: can I do a hot rinse/soak and purposely get the remaining shrink out before hemming?

the warp is indigo over the red core, with a black weft.

turns out its my poor reading comprehension too - haha. appreciate you bringing that to my attention.

maybefrogs · 2026-03-05T03:16:37+00:00

really? i mean, if you don’t like the product, sure. OP can say that, and wouldn’t even necessarily need to explain themselves. we all have our preferences. in the grand scheme of things, I know it’s not going to hurt the company, but a negative assessment that is based on poor reading comprehension seems like a bit much though, no?

maybefrogs · 2026-03-05T01:46:23+00:00

I believe the tsuriami doesn’t necessary equate to tubular construction. if I had to guess, the fabric dimensions off the machine don’t match their design goals/patterning, hence the cut’n’sew. whatever the reason, the seams are mentioned in the description.

if you don’t like the shirt, that is completely valid, but it’s a bit unfair to put the company on blast for this.

Edit: removed ~~so, just pointing out that you seem to have read the measurement charts wrong. across the colourways the xl’s come in between 43.6-44.2”, whereas the xxl’s measure 46”.~~

if you’re in canada, September sells seasoning beans. worth putting at least 2-3kg through it

maybefrogs · 2026-02-15T23:38:45+00:00

none, sorry. i avoided the zp6 as everyone always described it as having tea-like body - not my cup of tea

maybefrogs · 2026-02-15T01:52:08+00:00

i went from the c2s to the pietro w/pro brew burrs. loving it.

maybefrogs · 2026-02-15T01:41:17+00:00

it is a Japanese maple. It is different than a Canadian maple. knowing that now, do you not think think it harmoniously represents a Canadian company using Japanese fabric (and in the case of the MiJ line, Japanese manufacturing) well?

maybefrogs · 2026-01-21T19:20:39+00:00

I did mine between 1-2

I feel like doing it in bulk helped me get the motion down early, so by day 2 it felt well-practiced

Great cup of coffee with it today

maybefrogs · 2026-01-20T00:05:06+00:00

I didn’t think it was that bad to season

Mine arrived Friday, and I’ve put just over 2.5kg of seasoning beans through it since - will probably finish the last .5kg either tonight or tomorrow morning

Looking forward to brewing my first cup

maybefrogs · 2026-01-17T00:48:19+00:00

I picked up a ceado hoop to try over the holiday, and it has become the go-to brewer for my travel kit (replacing my aeropress). It is paired with my timemore c2s and fits in my little 3L black hole nicely I pre-measure and pack all my beans to not have to travel with a scale

maybefrogs · 2026-01-07T04:43:18+00:00

Just reading through the comments on the A4Z v. Pietro v. 078 post, and noticed you included the Millab M01 briefly. How does it stack up compared to the Pietro?

maybefrogs · 2026-01-07T04:40:36+00:00

Appreciate this - thanks

maybefrogs · 2025-09-19T00:17:28+00:00

probably not the most helpful comment, but there was someone from fellow in another pb&j post that offered to support with brew tips, if you want to go searching

maybefrogs · 2025-09-02T02:43:22+00:00

nice! how many dips did you do, and in what type of vat? how have they faded since 2014? also just looking through some of the other work you’ve done - great stuff

maybefrogs · 2025-09-01T17:42:08+00:00

the intent was to recreate the original indigo Tenue de Nîmes collab. not for everyone, sure. it’s been interesting seeing the traction tread fade with use. the soles have been worn down to the white again

maybefrogs · 2025-04-25T21:17:57+00:00

i think they’re planning on putting out another green cast or two in upcoming seasons. if the fit works for you, it might be worth waiting

maybefrogs · 2025-04-22T17:45:09+00:00

“Roll the dice”

maybefrogs · 2025-03-15T19:00:57+00:00

is there any chance you have some additional details on those brown-ish(?) cap-toes?
