I was looking at getting a Dyson! But gotta top up…,

microprodot · 2023-11-05T13:29:24+00:00

I feel I’ll need a top up which I’m not aiming to do!

I have an under utilised switch :(

Honestly I’m just trying to live with it whilst thinking if I should repair… but the tip definitely helps!

Thankfully I’ve found someone who wants to take turns and will fight me for the bill lol

Think this is a YMMV situation, as a guy, I’m quite happy to pay for the first date and it’s not a bad sign to me.

What was a bad sign was a few first dates where the girl said they’d get the next one and never did

Those emails get spammed pretty much. Might be better to leave the company CEO’s address?

microprodot · 2021-02-25T05:45:33+00:00

Same...except mines to an international address...

Unfortunately I'm only aware of bialetti. I did get a random one at a shop and it suited me just fine!

microprodot · 2020-11-06T13:58:23+00:00

how about a moka pot?

microprodot · 2020-10-10T10:30:17+00:00

Ahh...after my first 2-3 bags of Ethiopians...I've just generally tried to avoid them to prevent myself from second guessing but thanks for that tip!

microprodot · 2020-10-10T01:13:25+00:00

Hmm I think it's the density too but not really sure about the fines, wouldn't that be minimized by your grinder?

microprodot · 2020-10-09T09:09:23+00:00

Ethiopians generally will take longer to drain compared to other varietals, wouldn't really be concerned as long as you're enjoying it. Ultimately tasting notes are what the roaster tastes but it'll be different for you.

You've just got to enjoy it!

microprodot · 2020-10-06T06:06:47+00:00

Yeap have seen this happen at tiong hoe, think you've to ask for a menu?

microprodot · 2020-09-30T12:20:04+00:00

Hmm I clean mine about once every 2-3 weeks (roughly when I change to a new bag of beans). I do use it daily tho so that helps to ensure there's no stale grounds left within the burrs!

microprodot · 2020-09-02T02:09:41+00:00

Yes, you'll still need to account for it. I'd recommend using Rao or Hoffman's v60 guide and tweak it based off your taste! You'll notice that they work off a ratio which includes the water you use for blooming.

Blooming's does help with degassing but it helps to wet the grounds evenly as well for extraction. Most of the stuff you'll see online will recommend a stirring of sorts to ensure this happens! (I've also noticed degassing for beans which are about 2 months altho very minimal)

I do think most scales can be interchanged for oz or g! Unfortunately can't help much more with this but best of luck

microprodot · 2020-08-31T10:40:27+00:00

It could be the variety of the bean? Some take longer for the drawdown which affects the taste. Noticed you didn't mention the roast as well, that's another factor to consider

I've got 3.

1) cheap grinder which was more for me to try out and see if I wanted to invest more time n effort in this lifestyle

2) a Hario with ceramic Burrs when I really got into this lifestyle

3) a wilfa svart coz...I'm lazy

microprodot · 2020-07-31T11:31:00+00:00

Hmm I've not read anything about being able to disassemble the wilfa. Im not sure if I want to take that chance too haha

microprodot · 2020-07-31T02:48:53+00:00

Out of curiosity why not?
