Ah, communism is like unicorns. Many people like them but nobody have seen them alive. Because every communist state is not communist but authoritarian.

I've been using James Hoffman's recipe since I bought AeroPress, and I was pretty satisfied. While being simple, it produced rich, balanced cups of coffee for both light and medium roasts. I was happy with it. But then I started noticing that some light-roasted coffee was too bitter. It rarely happened, but when it did, it wasn't possible to get rid of that excessive bitterness. When I tried to increase the grind size, I got watery, but still too bitter coffee. At first, I thought there was something wrong with the coffee beans, but then I thought, maybe immersion brewing was just not suitable for them. So, I decided to find another recipe.

I wanted to try a hybrid recipe containing a percolation phase, as I believed it could produce more balanced cups. So I searched on the Aeromatic app and found a recipe from The Real Sprometheus. It has a long percolation phase and quite a short immersion phase. And this recipe fixed my coffee. I got a balanced cup without excessive bitterness and with more detailed acidity. Now, this is my recipe to go, as I think it's superior to James Hoffman's recipe.

Radiokava. It's a local coffee roastery in Ukraine.

$57 monthly. But I order not a cheap coffee.

I prefer Steam because of cheaper games in my country and because of service. All those reviews, tutorials and mods matter.

I think it's perfect. On par with big brands.

 

Shark Lock is even better than I thought. It's so smooth and easy to operate. See example (2.2 MB)

It's made in US, so it should be not as cheap as Chinese stuff.

They're working on a glass-and-metal premium version. But it'll cost a premium price, though.

Yes, the spring on it is too stiff and is hard to operate. But it turns the knife into a sort of gym for hands, and after some time, opening and closing the knife one-handed becomes easy. It's my favorite lock so far (I haven't tried Shark Lock yet) and I like it more than Axis Lock and Compression Lock. I only wish the knife scales were smoother, like on Demko AD-15.

Otherwise the PC didn't work.

What's the difference between block user/community and filter user/community? Why do we need filtering feature if we can block?

 

How do you like infused coffee? On one hand, it has unusual flavors, on the other hand, those flavors are added. What is more important, experiencing an unusual taste or drinking good coffee instead of the flavored one?
