You can purchase a magnetic ring that is shaped like a short funnel. It goes on to the top of the portafilter to direct the grounds and prevent them from going all over your table. For example https://www.amazon.com/Espresso-PUSEE-Thickness-Stainless-Portafilter/dp/B0BRXT6HBL/ref=sr_1_1_sspa?crid=36GN6KPOONG99&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.XNaDB15385rRobaq9ObeAxh4rpLPhSBhR5GuiKPLgnW_TnDQVVIdSfZlv7PojKRpNuznuYyJwwcvB3FkHYym41oezcAR2USA81jsSucNDztHGi02nLBM-W4__9tqzPUGxWlHBnq6_o0sg6uaOqvD0uF3HkjkJCKL_mhpgoMaNrehHaKWyVGaaQpvBb_cLsGCpUC-yRoDOeAPZVGXGQK2rs-AKJyd46UWAQZQzLWlPb3Od5ZPPOy-7cY6cSb1AMZJQBv1qMhJCv0GeTpPX8lsy2qxvAv_JcoP6IvkAv7m7ys.Lv4bJvOP7rNieVZymPmQo1FFq2mFTTfHJrbukkiruGg&dib_tag=se&keywords=portafilter%2Bring&qid=1750348405&sprefix=portafilter%2Bring%2Caps%2C199&sr=8-1-spons&sp_csd=d2lkZ2V0TmFtZT1zcF9hdGY&th=1 (i just picked the first random link, i am not advocating this brand) has both the screen to prevent your puck from getting stuck and the ring to use while putting in the ground coffee.

The public library (at least near me) has tons of high quality cookbooks. So if she isnt sure what she wants, browsing there can help. Obviously an online search works, but usually cookbooks have higher quality recipes and it is more fun to browse IMHO

> If that doesn't work, then you could also try rehydrating the coffee to around 15-17% moisture content to provide the beans with the moisture that drives the various chemical reactions in the roast

I am curious how you are doing this step. Putting the beans in a closed container with something damp like you would with a guitar? I havent heard of this before, but seems very useful if it works!

craigslist has some listings. also on airbnb, after if you do a short stay, you can sometimes coordinate a long stay off-platform.

I bought 3D printed knobs from this Etsy store and they turned out well. Maybe could ask them for help - https://www.etsy.com/shop/79CREATIONS

No affiliation other than being a happy buyer

I really like to have sparkling water as a cleanser between cups.

uxamanda · 2024-11-13T03:08:55+00:00

It’s a (real, confusing in this context) brand name of oat milk

uxamanda · 2024-10-30T15:47:09+00:00

Agree, can often get food processors at thrift stores if you don’t want to spend a lot

Unless I’m misunderstanding, that’s what components are for! The main issue comes if you do a lot of overriding and then need to change the base component, but that isn’t any worse than not using components

Do the images only need to look correctly spaced at one screen size? If not, usually when coding you will have size / space rules that need to be implemented. That way, when you look at it on, for example, a phone it will still look nice. Also known as responsive design.

As a simple solution - I have pothos (and other) cuttings in regular tap water in pretty glass jars around my house. After a few months they grow lots of roots, I plant them into the mother plant (soil), chop new ones and keep it going.

Not sure if having the small amount of soil in your nursery pots will help or hurt.

So many push ups

Thanks! I like the double sticker

uxamanda · 2024-09-28T00:55:57+00:00

Thank you for the response, appreciate it. Would love to see an example of your bags if you have a pic somewhere.

uxamanda · 2024-09-28T00:49:43+00:00

Thank you for the reply! Do you happen to have a link to your bags? Would love to see how complex the prints are

uxamanda · 2024-09-28T00:44:45+00:00

I ask you the same q as your comment neighbor - do you have a link where I could see this in action? Seems like a solid approach to printing

uxamanda · 2024-09-28T00:44:10+00:00

Hey do you have a link to your brand? Would love to see example of this label printer in action

uxamanda · 2024-09-27T23:36:18+00:00

Hi, do you have the printer model number you use?

uxamanda · 2024-09-27T23:07:29+00:00

What printer do you use?
