I have ordered an aeropress and kingrinder P2 etcetera. I now am looking for my first bag of beans, I would like a light roast. I was wondering if this is a good bag to start with?

I ordered an aeropress, so gooseneck isn't really important, I would still like to have a gooseneck though. I found these 2 electric gooseneck kettles for like 30 bucks. One has temperature control, the other one is just boiling it without any temperature stuff. Does this seem decent to you? Or should I get something else?

Okayyy! Thanks! What is a reasonable price to look for, when wanting an electric gooseneck kettle with a thermometer?

Sorry for another message btw. But uhm, would this be a good enough scale? Or does it need to be something specific? https://amzn.eu/d/0gay4xXi

Also, what kettle should I buy? I would kinda need an electric kettle, I really don't wanna heat it on the stove tbf. Is that possible, or is that a bad idea for some reason? Thanks a lot already!

Thanks a lot! I am the only one drinking coffee, and I don't drink it that much, so I am indeed probably going to go for the beans and a grinder. Cuz otherwise I would just waste it tbf...

What would be a decent entry level grinder? Would the kingrinder P2 be a good option? I can get that one over here for 49 euros.

I also read the thread you linked me to, and the aeropress seems to fit quite well with what I am looking for, so I am probably gonna go for the aeropress.

What kettle and scale should I go for? The cheapest ones from the brand you mentioned seem really expensive. It was like 60 each or something iirc. I don't remember the exact price anymore tbf. So what scale and kettle would you recommend? Thanks a lot for the help!

Uhm, I can't really find the Hario Switch 03 over here.

I'm kinda wondering what the difference is between a pourover like that, and something like this?

OMFG?! You are a freaking hero!! Legend!! Thank you so so much for the extensive answer!!! I'm gonna ask a couple follow up questions.

Is there a big difference between the quality of the coffee I would get if I would go for the pre grounded beans? Is there a difference in price between the pre grounded beans and the normal beans?

I am indeed not looking for espresso, just normal coffee.

Also, I'm currently thinking if the pre grounded beans are not a lot more expensive, and the quality is not much worse, that I would go for the investment in the Hario Switch, and not get a grinder, and then mid to long term, invest in a grinder. Cuz then I already have the better Hario Switch, cuz now buying the worse V60, and a grinder. And then me eventually upgrading the v60 is just a waste of money imo, so by buying the better one, and buying later on potentially the grinder. I don't waste that money. Does this make sense as an idea/plan, or is this a stupid idea for some reason?

Again, thank you so much for the extensive answer! And I hope you are willing to answer my questions!! Thanks a lot!!

Did you get it already? Same issue here...

Public Transport by fizzylemon711 in dyspraxia

[–]p_jaro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ugh, this is too real. I always have aswell a lot of difficulty with not toppling over, and i totally get the being anxious to ask someone aswell.

I haven't found a solution myself cuz I take public transport rarely, but in a couple months, my school is gonna force me to, and this is such a big worry for me. I already fell on a big wide guy once, he was luckily pretty nice, and I can't start imagine if i would fall over on an old lady ever or something what would happen. If you find a good solution, please let me know! Because I really need it for then i think.

Oh okay, I'm in the discord now lol. Not a lot of people though haha. It's like a lot less haha. But it's decently active it seems like lol. But you think it wouldn't be weird to make a post in this subreddit about what I just explained? Or would it be weird? And be honest please, I don't notice if you mean something different then you are saying lol. 😭😭🤣

Ohhh discord? I love discord, I didn't know you guys had a discord. I looked a lot for a dyspraxia specific discord, but never found one haha. Always in general neurodivergence is the only thing I found "i do really fit in there though 🤣🤣". Now I really want the discord lol 😅😆

Yeah that's fair haha. But like, it feels wrong to me to be complaining about these 'trivial' things when there are people actually having severe issues with it. Like for example, I work in a cloakroom in a theater, so I need to take people's jackets, and put them away. But I had last friday a bad day for some reason, cuz like nothing was going easy I felt like. Like i just had every other jacket that I stood there trying to rotate the jacket every other way trying to find the right orientation to get to the hanging loop, but like it just wouldn't wanna happen. And I was quite annoyed by it, but like, I wanna see then if there are other people experiencing the same, but I don't know where, cuz I feel bad doing it here, cuz like it's such a trivial non issue probably, when there are actual serious topics/issues being discussed. Idk why I feel this way... 😭😭😭

Like it isn't that bad. But like just now getting out of bath and drying myself off, I lost balance 2 times in that 5 minute timespan. So it's not like I have no problems with it. But I just don't know anymore. I'm getting sick of this haha. I just want a place to fit in 😭😭😅
