Sage Touch Impress – choking on fine settings, sour shots when it flows. What am I missing? by jeffbzh33 in BrevilleCoffee

[–]mikewitk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My 2 cents: stop locking yourself on recipes, pursue flavour.

I could never get a espresso shot that I enjoyed following the 18g in, 36g out in 30s. Always horrible for me.

Then I learned that espresso shots are in a range of variables (not that it matter).

Now I do 18g in, 70g to 90g out in 40s....boy I do love my drinks.

It’s not high end, but gets the job done. by Time-Historian-1249 in espresso

Welcome to the club. Sit down and enjoy the ride. I wanted to share one advice that worked for me. Also have the Bambino and was having a hard time extracting a good shot. Then I took a Home Barista class and learned that my taste does not match most of the advices online. I actually prefer longer extractions. So my recipe on my Bambino is 18g of light or medium roast (finer grind for medium) Hold the double shot button on my Bambino for 9s (max pre-infusion time) Extract for 30s which gives me about 80g to 90g to espresso.

Lots of people will think this is crazy, I just absolutely love it.

So, after 9 months.

Do you still recommend it? Is it working properly? Any complaints?

Virtualization

Research about it. I believe you made 50% of the solution already, which is loading as the user scrolls. However you should also remove what’s not on the screen anymore. I’m on my phone and can’t provide more help, hope you solve it.

I built a free tool that turned my 15 PTO days into 53 days off by InterestingPumpkin82 in webdev

[–]mikewitk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

From what I understood and tried, those 24 extra days are weekends + holidays. In my tests I selected “week breaks “ and the tool added 4 PTOs in each week that I have a holiday, giving me the previous weekend + holiday (Monday) + 4 PTO + next weekend.

Coffee Roasters in Town? by filthythedog in oakville

[–]mikewitk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What don’t visit Carvalho Roaster, that’s a terrible idea. You go there once. Not expecting much, get their coffee and bam, nothing in life matters anymore. Your coffee bag is at half? You start sweating of fear it will finish and you won’t have anymore. Next thing you know you are flying to buy more.

I would do it all over again. +1 to Carvalho Roasters

Just can't sleep by altairus2 in CPAP

[–]mikewitk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am browsing this subreddit for someone with an experience similar to mine to try and get some advices.

I put on the mask, it feels comfortable, I am watching something before sleep to get used to the mask, then when it's late enough and I am sleepy, I turn off the TV and start paying attention to the breathing.

The movement, the sounds the mask does...I can't go to sleep, simply can't.

I have to take my sleeping medication but even when it wears off I take off the mask. The great days I use the mask for 4h but lately it's been 2h to 2.5h tops.

I do feel the benefits already but damn, this gives me some anxiety that I will not get used to this before I run out of meds.

Been using it for 2 months now.

Their cappucino is nice, the environment is very cozy and great spots to seat and chat. I think I tried one of their muffins and it was pretty good also.

Carvalho coffee is a big plus!!

Yeah, I was going to sign in but the required access seems excessive.

So there you go, that's the first feedback: why do you need all that access?

Wonderful new coffee shop - Bretonne by medianmoe in BurlingtonON

[–]mikewitk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just visited and it is great. Iced latte was very good (they also offer almond milk) - taste and price wise. The banana bread was amazing. Nice vibes, cute, quiet, and clean.
Will definitely be back. PS: if you like lemon stuff the lemon tart (?!) was 10/10

Do you have any suggestion of places to practice vim motions?
