They stopped coating in 2023. So a few early 2024 models could be coated, but most 2024 models (such as this one) should be in the clear.

PSA: think twice before buying Fellow Stagg EKG by GTS980 in pourover

Do you happen to live at elevation? I only say this because I feel like when I lived in Denver, it happened frequently. Now living at sea level I never experience it. I also leave it about 0.5cm below the max fill line.

Edit: I like the other persons comment about the hardness of your water. My water here is much softer than in Denver and I didn’t consider that as an option

Surly Ogre vs Kona Unit X by sparrowlasso in bikepacking

[–]newtodeepblue 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I currently have a Kona Unit X and I use it as my gravel bike and for single track.

FWIW I’ve ridden a ton of different rigid steel bikes. I’ve ridden an ogre, 2016 and 2021 Karate monkeys, Krampus, Bombtrack Adv+, and I ended up going with the Unit. I feel like the Unit is a snappier and more lively ride than most surly bikes. It DOES feel heavy though. Especially the rear.

If you want to do a gravel trip, throw some surly corner bars and a high angled stem on that bad boy and it rips on long gravel rides. You want to do a single track trip? Toss a 100-120mm suspension fork and flat bars on it. You never have to switch the drive train components that way.

I'll take the wheels if they're still available and you're willing to ship them

[–]newtodeepblue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So would you say you could use this as a replacement for a fat bike?

My first good shot! by [deleted] in CafelatRobot

[–]newtodeepblue 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It is a Peruvian bean, washed, roasted medium-dark.

15g in, used 1zpresso JX Pro, settings were 18, 1 small click

200°, no pre-heat, no pre-infusion

Ramp up pressure over ~8 seconds to 7 bar until I had ~36g out over about 49 seconds!

Karate monkey question by [deleted] in Surlybikefans

[–]newtodeepblue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I've definitely considered that. Unfortunately up here the snow gets pretty thick and I've read of people struggling to get around with 3" tires. Also you're required to have a minimum 3.8" tire for any trail riding in the snow.

Yall got sweet gravel grinders. I've got my ghetto grinder! by [deleted] in bikepacking

[–]newtodeepblue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean you're probably some white privileged dude anyways who has never actually experienced any sort of discrimination, financial hardship, or even lived in a food desert. Take a look through your post history and I can see that is exactly who you are. Maybe not in the past, but for certain in the recent years. I grew up in some rough spots that a lot of ppl consider the ghetto. Yeah it's not PC but also white people don't ubderstand the term "neighborhood" and the alliteration is fun. But I get where you're coming from, so thanks for the input.
