Why don’t we not respect his nouns and still call it twitter?
Doesn’t work for me either. Same behavior as you. Quite difficult to implement well I believe
It’s a big group self-hosting project. I love it. It starts to change your mind about what’s possible with the development of all these shared protocols, especially with how efficient you can make them.
You can run a relatively small instance on a NAS if you wanted. I like the idea of even more fragmented projects where everyone just hosts for themself and there’s just a syncing protocol in between. Does give you a lot of attack vectors, but also makes any one attack not that impactful if isolation is good.
Grooveshark was the source of playlists for me, much better than the inferior fratmusic
Even grind size is the most important benefit. Plus there is no guesswork on how long to grind them for like there is with the blade. You set the grind size and that’s the size you get. There’s typically some sort of adjusting wheel that may or may not have stops; stopless are more expensive, and it stays where you set it so your beans are ground to the same size as long as you don’t move the setting.
Yeah, temp should be 205F for most pour over applications. Shouldn’t need to fool around with that. I don’t let time bother me at all on the chemex, can take a while sometimes. I just mainly focus on keeping a nice even bed while I’m pouring.

^May change your life. Lots of options in the 50ish range for burr hand grinders, especially if you’re just gonna do pour over. Also, consistent filters do make a pretty big difference. If you’re just making for yourself, a hario v60 is also only like 20 bucks for a glass one.
I had the 22” when I lived in Texas, moved to New York for a while and gave to a friend. He got me the 18” once I had a yard again since the shipping would cost so much. It was nice for the rare occasion that I wanted to cook a full rack of ribs or like multiple turkeys. For a single butt or brisket though it used so much coal even with the ring method. No upgraded door, I just buy a bunch of ends and pieces, put em in my cast iron, crank the vents all the way open and coat the inside with fresh grease while I’m seasoning my pan.
I promise I did not do this on purpose. I like potatoes but not potato quality.

Coffee Compass
Don’t know how many people have run across this or something like it before. This visual helped me early on and I still think about it if I have a really bad brew.

Naked portafilter is the only portafilter. So much easier to dial
I use a chemex, I’ll usually tighten the grind as I go through a bag, so I’ll back the setting off a little before a new bag and then tighten from there. Coffee is too expensive these days to throw away a bad brew and I prefer my coffee to be a little soupy vs. over-extracted
Are you using a blade grinder? I would highly recommend even a cheap burr grinder over blade. What’s your overall brew setup?
What’s less boring? You can make Arch as exciting as you like imo. One of the better distros to roll your own kernel on
