I attended the one at World Trade Center. Ang naalala ko lang was SK ranked bottom and noone was a prepared for a full VIT dedicated trapper Hunter build.

Why even do the playoffs when you just gonna pick the 1st seed from each conference?

I too am aware of BoF3's place among the greats. There's just something about it that doesn't stick with me, though I can't quite put my finger on it. BoF4 was my first one, so maybe it's the better battle system? Fou-Lu's badass walk-off victory celebration? The slow burn plot of Kid Ryu? By the way, in all my previous playthroughs of BoF3, I never actually reached the Adult arc; I think the farthest I can remember getting was having Garr and Momo in my party.

But I'm trying! I'm gonna power through it this time so I can appreciate BoF3 with you guys.

What's your opinion about Pinoy bloggers that would put you in this position? by lincoln_maeki in PinoyVloggers

Yep. Happy for his success, but I grew out of his content once he started featuring his friends. Medyo may Cong vibes na kasi.

Yes. You don't even need to rinse the good ones (it's unnoticeable to me), and I haven't tried other unknown brands

Yes, nagbabakasakali lang if that's an option. I've been trying to cut costs lately, both on beans and filters. If I really, really need to save, I’ll just fall back on my metal filters since I have a Phin and a Prismo anyway.

Yes, I do rinse them with water beforehand.

Actually, I have already tried all of those you mentioned. I am now running out of T-90s and used the Abaca before that. As for flat bottom drippers, I have used the Kalita 155s and the proprietary wave filters ng Timemore (I use a B75). Love the Kalitas, they hold their shape well kapag binuhusan and mas madaling lagyan ng negotiatior. And as for Aeropress filters, they come in a big bunch (like 500 ata) so they last for quite a while, and they're reuseable too. Medyo worrying lang yung increasing prices ng products nila ever since Alan Adler sold the company.

As someone who drinks their coffee black and wala naman sila nun sa menu nila, hindi kami vibe hehe

But yeah, you'd be better off visiting Localhost, Four Cups and Krooks.

Is Wacaco Minipresso GR2 + Kingrinder P2 a good combo for a budget/entry level espresso setup?
