I do a 1:16.667 ratio of coffee to water. That would be 30g coffee in 500g water. Pre rinse the filter. Then I add enough boiling water to bloom the coffee. After about a minute I start adding more water. Just enough to keep the grounds below liquid level. I swirl clockwise and then counter clockwise after each pour.

That’s it. Keep pouring until target amount of water is reached.

A link to Reddit to a link to unverified “documents” is not news. It’s gossip at best.

News should be verifiable and fact checked. Not some random post in a subreddit.

Agree, OPs experience sucks and it’s good perspective but YSK should be focused on facts.

Moussaka.

You have to peel, slice, salt, and drain eggplant. Then cook it.

You have to peel, parboil, and slice potatoes.

Optionally also peel, slice, salt, drain, and cook zucchini.

You have to make your meat sauce. Make bechemel.

And then layer it all together and bake it.

It’s MANY hours.

What is it you’re looking to get from the lethicin? What do you think is missing from just straight canola? What problems are you having? I think this would help with alternative suggestions.

Looks great! Any oil in the pan? Any kind of seasoning?

I have a dishwand that just stays out all the time, so I’d hit it with that. Almost everything either goes in the dishwasher or gets hit with the dishwand. If I cut up something like apples or cucumber I may just give the knife a rinse before it goes back into the block

Do you roast there or move it outside when you want to roast? The smoke seems like you wouldn’t want it in a finished space without some serious ventilation.

Some People may consider this sacrilege, but I keep a small jug in my fridge that I pour any extra coffee in. In brewing this would be the solvers method :). 1/4 cup left? It goes in the jug.

Then I use this to make iced coffee.

If I’m completely empty, I’ll brew a pot of French press, and then pour it in the jug to restock.

There are no cake days, this isn’t Reddit. Don’t try to make it Reddit. Let it be it’s own thing.

Spez has been correctly advised that investors are going to be concerned with profitability, or at least a viable pathway to profitability.

There’s a huge startup bubble starting to burst. Companies reliant on cheap money to supplement a business model that at best is years away from profitability but in some cases decades or will never be profitable.

Uber and Doordash IPO’d when money was cheap and investors were fine with speculating on these disruptive, yet unprofitable, companies.

I work broadly in the VC funded start-up world. My observation is that money is running out. All of these companies are trying to commercialize, even if the product isn’t fully ready, because they have to show revenue and there has to be a path to profitability of that revenue. That’s the only way they’ll get more money.

In this context, Reddit is more like these startups. They’ve been funded by investors, including big ones like Condé Nast and Ten Cent, and they need more money, so they have to show a path to profitable revenue.

The IPO is going to be a shit show. I wouldn’t touch it with a 9 foot pole. Reddit has been notoriously unprofitable for its entire existence. Now there’s no more juice to squeeze and their backers want to pawn it off on retail investors.

I can understand the interest in watching the drama unfold. It’s like reality tv.

But you should also ask yourself, deep down, why do you care?

Reddit will never go back. It was going downhill long before the 3PA-crisis. Spez will never back down. Even if Spez gets fired it’ll be an Ellen Pao situation all over again. The new CEO will say nice things and then not undo anything Spez did.

At this point the most anyone left on Reddit can do is damage Reddit’s valuation. It’s retribution for destroying the community we all enjoyed.

The mods can do this by impacting what subs can be monetized. Users can do this by decreasing traffic. Even being on the site is traffic.

It’s funny you phrase it that way. I have a number of plants that I “bring in” for winter. It’s the same thing, just I view them less as “house plants” and more as “not winter hardy”.

I’ve got a few cacti, a jade plant, peace lily, and and orchid that all come inside for the winter time.

I used to have a lot more, but I pared them down. They took up a lot of space inside and it was just a lot of hassle to deal with.

French press is my morning go to. I generally follow James Hoffman’s method. Boiling hot water, stir for the first couple of minutes, and then let it sit for as long as you can patiently wait to let the fines settle. For me this is 3, 4 minutes max. My total brew time is 6-7 minutes. He recommends like 7-8 minutes rest for a total brew time of about 9-10 minutes.

If I’m just itching for an extra cup, I have a pour over I use.

The flavor difference between brew methods is always interesting. If I had to pick, I’d say the full mouthfeel of French press is my preference, but I’m glad I have both options.

I used to have a nice 15 bar espresso maker but I found I just didn’t use it enough to justify the counter space it took up.

We made it to the New World. I wish them the best and hope they find us one day, but I’m burning my ships and starting a new life.

I think it’s generally best to just empathize and validate their feelings. My go to is “that sounds really frustrating” or just repeat back their feelings. I’d in their vent they say they are sad, repeat back “that seems like it would be sad”

Depending on you’re relationship with them, I think you can first validate, but then ask “what are you going to do” or “how are you going to handle it”

You can also ask “are you just wanting to vent or do you also want advice”

But unsolicited advice is rarely appreciated. Opinions are like assholes, everyone has one and everyone things everyone else’s stinks.

Before watching the video: people are probably freaking out over nothing

After watching: wow, that’s not a small shark!

Blend it with something else. I mostly drink home roasted single origin, so yeah definitely making “Atlhart’s Blend” with the last beans of every batch.
