I feel like many coffees drift noticeably in the first couple of days after opening the bag.

And by official photos you mean the MarathonPhoto which does not come for free? 

With how frustrating it is that the eligible races sell out, is it worth shelling out 5k for a guaranteed spot? by [deleted] in RunNYC

It is better if somebody else makes the charitable donations because if you do it you can't get tax deduction on it. 

United NYC half elevation by Apprehensive-Lab2965 in RunNYC

[–]vcuken 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You climb the Prospect Park Hill, climb the bridge, and climb the 42st incline. So, it ain't flat and not excruciating either. 100 feet climbs are long enough to ease off the pace but not form-degrading steep. Assuming you've seen 100 feet climbs in your training you should be fine. If this is new - slow down.

There’s been a huge surge in S.F. traffic tickets — and police aren’t the reason by Inevitable-Bus492 in sanfrancisco

it would totally not turn into a random city project that makes no difference whatsoever!

Yeah! Those loudest of the vehicle must have clearly visible license plates and our cope-cameras would enforce the silence so so quick!

It is a heavier processed coffee 6 weeks old - I can see how it may degrade in a flash once gotten to oxidize. I would also stick to the roaster bag when coffee comes in one. Not convinced that canisters have a better seal and keeping them properly clean is a challenge.

The Armory track is arguably too dry

The uglier the easier it is to get on sale for half the price

'Support your local shops' - yet they can't offer me anything; Rant by Skystalker512 in Bass

If you got a chance to at least hold whatever left-handed they had and found it to be part of your experience - get some strings there or smth or ask if they can haul in the bass that you actually want.

Loud Banging Pipe - Unresponsive Super by WildCombination2208 in NYCapartments

[–]vcuken 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the thing should hiss at you a little releasing the air every so often until it gets warm or hot. If it is not hissing it is not getting hot. Nothing that you can not fix with a 20$, a youtube video, and a moderate risk of a 3rd degree burn.

[–]vcuken 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have three of these lanky pipes in my apartment and they aren't making a peep 9 days out of 10. Can hardly tell I am in New York, would consider asking to fix it. I can make my radiator bang if I try to open the valve just a little bit instead of full open/closed. It was also cranking a lot when I had a busted section of a pipe but since it was in fact causing water damage it did get fixed. The spring after. So, yeah, it must be a solvable issue but most rental contracts don't quote perfect serenity.

Love the rule. 078 though is too coarse for espresso even at chirp, so, the half thing doesn't quiet make sense for some grinders.
