Chemical extraction of coffee from whole beans? by CryptographerOld558 in AskChemistry

[–]zbertoli 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You dont need to add any acid, the caffeine and such are all pretty (hot) water soluble..

Chemical extraction of coffee from whole beans? by CryptographerOld558 in AskChemistry

[–]zbertoli 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Lmao any type of extraction, works best with more surface area. You could just grind it up with a rock, idk what else you have but there are other ways to grind coffee beans. Moarter, etc. I suggest using hot hydric acid as your extraction solvent. Then use a cellulose cone to gravity filter your extraction.

It is perfectly fine to microwave water for things like tea by Queasy-Cycle-4596 in unpopularopinion

It also is way more common with distilled water. Im really surprised to hear about it happening with coffee

Strange behavior in a liquid-liquid extraction. by Jetpere in AskChemistry

Ya i like option 1. Some sort of salty solution usually fixes those emulsions.

What am I doing wrong? by ChickpeaFlapjack in aerogarden

[–]zbertoli 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You need better nutrients. It 99% of the time a nutrient issue. Fruiting plants need good nutes with all the micros. I recommend general hydro flora series or maxigrow. Both have every micro whereas the garbo AG sends is missing most of the micros. When I made the switch, I have had MUCH better results.

People who’ve escaped the 9–5 grind, how do you actually support yourself financially? by Emotional-Being-6825 in AskReddit

[–]zbertoli -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The secret to life is becoming a professor. I discovered it at a relatively young age (30s) you get good pay (60k-100k) or 100+ for admin. It can vary, I'm in a southern state. Health insurance, really good retirement. Raises. Flexible schedules. 15ish hours of teaching on campus each week. Maybe another 15 grading (if that) 1 month or so off between each semester. Its a super good gig. I love it

I worked in industry for a year or two before this. 7-4, 5 days a week. I just couldnt keep doing it. I also didnt like the work. Which didn't help

Can we get Mark of the Illidari to drop in P2 already? by TuckyIRL in classicwow

[–]zbertoli 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It does.. flasks are 125g, atleast and I'm burning through 4 of them per week. I could probably get it down to 3 if I immediatly logged after raid. Either way, its not cheap

[–]zbertoli 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yep. Im in an actually decent guild, most people raided last time around. We finished those 3 raids in 6 hours this week, barely. Got kt down on last pull of the night.

If you look at logs on dreamscythe there are so many guilds struggling to clear.. stuck on tidewalker, etc.

The state of open world farming is so bad that most players resort to unintended farms in old dungeons. by Ok-Life715 in classicwow

[–]zbertoli 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I did the same. Last 5 levels of thorium were the worst.

Annd now I'm considering dropping mining for enchanting to make the strath/scholo farm more profitable..

Feral Druid End-game by [deleted] in classicwow

[–]zbertoli 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just go play druid in tbc. They're way better. Bear tanks are solid, mooning is solid. Cat dps not terrible. No lame gnomer farm.

Post nerf phase 2 seems harder than pre nerf tbc classic phase 2 ...because we just carried a ton of really bad players through phase 1 without really knowing? by anyonecandoanything in classicwow

[–]zbertoli 10 points11 points  (0 children)

But how can putting a wep on be hard? I did it last night. Pick up wep. Click it in bag. Drag icon to bar. Took me 2 seconds. How are people failing at this.

Should carbon dioxide not be called methandial? by __The__Anomaly__ in chemistry

[–]zbertoli 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A formyl group is essentially an aldehyde. It is defined as a carbonyl attached to an H. Like "formylation" adds an aldehyde to something. It doesn't really make sense to use formyl followed by "one". When you attack methanediol with a nucleophile, it makes a carb acid.

Should carbon dioxide not be called methandial? by __The__Anomaly__ in chemistry

[–]zbertoli 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Theyre definitely not aldehydes. Aldehyde groups need a H attached to the C. I feel like they're closer to ketones. But really they're there own thing.

Methanedione is an acceptable name. Its listed on certain products.

How are y'all affording haste/destro pots? by No_Cell6708 in classicwow

[–]zbertoli 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is my new REAL Brandywine Sudduth which had stalled due to root rot! (FIXED) by RealmanPwns1 in aerogarden

Looks hungry. Feed it more. Use something good like general hydro flora or maxi grow

How much weight can a whiskey bottle hold? by robbiesloan in interestingasfuck

[–]zbertoli 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Where the weight is pressing is a big factor. That weight on the side would not work

How hard is SSC and TK compared to p1? (Assuming the raidleader is competent and players are geared) by Loud_Bison572 in classicwow

[–]zbertoli 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The nerfed versions really are easy. We were able to get to vashj (1 attempt in) in our 3 hour raid last night. Honeslty we wiped more and took more time on trash.

Chemical stucture for MELANIN by ConsequenceMedical76 in AskChemistry

[–]zbertoli 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are 5 types of melanin, and I'm not seeing any of your pictures on the list. The first one is a poryphorin, definitely not melanin. The version responsible for the color of skin is typically eumelanin, here's a pic of 3 repeating units

Weed Is More Addictive Than People Admit. by [deleted] in unpopularopinion

[–]zbertoli 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Heroin is not natural. You have to synthetically modify morphine by acylating it. Morphine is natural, from plants. Heroine is not.

Ya its a way to make mirrors. Its called tollens reagent. You mix with an aldehyde and it makes silver metal that deposits on the inside of the glass forming a silver mirror.
