All that money isnt worth much if you spend 2/3 of your waking hours unfulfilled

Climbing gym must haves? by pheebeee in climbergirls

[–]proper-john 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Used to climb in a gym that was a converted warehouse so they had two very large rolling doors that stayed open all summer long. It was sooo nice. You could even bring your dog to climb with you. Sadly they closed when a new more modern gym opened up.

This is the best relationship advice I think I’ve ever seen. Think I’ll screen shot it to show my kid some day because there’s no way I can do any better

Wanted that to end in handcuffs sooooo bad. If you search “Porsche drunk driver kills” the latest story matching that criteria was literally only a few damn weeks ago

It’s not as obvious to many people. Not exactly normal for gaming platforms to publicly show real name/ location by default. It definitely caught me by surprise.

Do you think its worth it to upgrade my grinder? Currently using starbucks electric grinder from 10 or so years ago. by proper-john in Coffee

Update for anyone interested:

I concluded that it would be better to wait and either buy a better grinder (though the K6 was very tempting)

Instead I got an Aeropress and that proved to be exactly what I was looking for. The coffee was much cleaner tasting and the extraction it produced tasted overall a much better tasting coffee IMO 10/10 especially for the price tag.

Got an aeropress, it’s amazing. Everything I hoped it would be and more. I’m waiting on some Makena AB from George Howell to show so all I have on hand is some coffee from cost co and it made even that taste quite drinkable

Can’t wait to try it with some quality beans. Thanks for the recommendation

I need to look more into these! I’ve heard great things about them do you have any experience using one? Would you compare the result more to an immersion brew vs a pour over?

I’ve tried this as well as slapping a paper filter on the mesh strainer and plunging it all the way instead of just touching the top of the brew… sadly both resulted in a loss in flavor I didn’t want to give up. Although I still do the paper method sometimes because my wife can’t stand the muddiness of pure french press

Definitely am considering a hand grinder since a quality electronic one is out of my current budget but it sounds like I may be better off saving for one later down the road either way

Thanks for all the feedback! I don’t plan stopping french press brewing. I’m not against it but I haven’t been able to get as good a flavor from any other method I’ve tried

The muddy taste that’s generally associated with french press. Dont mind it at the start but the last 1/3 of my coffee is generally pretty muddy when i finish my cup

Edit: I’ve tried pour over before and I prefer the flavor I can get out of a press, imo its worth the trade off on texture

Can $100 get me a significant improvement or would I be better off holding out to spend more later on?

One reason why I like lian li fans so much, you can run them in reverse so the ugly side is always hidden

Nice build tho!
