@benjaminhollon I'm guessing that's how it goes. That seems to be the standard operating procedure.

I'm not falling for it though.

Tonight my 22 year old sister-in-law asked me to help her eject a disc from an external DVD drive she had. She couldn't figure out how to turn it on to get it out.

I said in my best McGuyver voice "Okay, I'm going to need a paper clip". I uses the little manual release button hole to eject it...and felt ancient.

Don’t turn 30, all the ads become: life insurance, ED, hair loss, and other things to remind you of your mortality.

Remember when YouTube was just 240p, and we all thought it was so amazing?

@RL_Dane I do. I remember it being such a tiny box on the screen, but it was "The Future"!

First off honestly I was expecting this to be a rick-roll...I guess the internet has ruined me for that.

Secondly...so it's spicy Cortana, the thing everyone turns off when setting up their computer. Not a fan...

I do have to admit...Thunderbird does look like Firefox owes it money. I think it's the eye.

Now that I've depleted my coffee stash from roasting two weeks ago it's time to make more. This time with Bourbon (not the alcohol, the Arabica bean variant) green beans from Burundi. I'm excited to taste the differences.

Mundon,
@Mundon@fosstodon.org avatar

So far the roast smells sweeter. No where near as smoky. I'm liking this already!

Mundon,
@Mundon@fosstodon.org avatar

They turned out a bit darker than I was going for, so I'll adjust my timing a bit for batch 2 od 4 today.

@rafaelcaricio Not yet. Someday I'll most likely move to Germany. But not yet.

@RockyC I've got a small counter top roaster on amazon, it makes 70g at a time. It's essentially a popcorn air popper with buttons for timing and a tray on top to catch the chafe that comes off, so it's a cleaner process.

It's not the most accurate one out there, but it was cheap ish and a way to get started. I can already see myself getting a different one in the next year to get more control over the roast.

I've been watching far too many James Hoffman videos lately. My inner coffee snob is growing.

Mundon,
@Mundon@fosstodon.org avatar

@RL_Dane Ihad to look up the Bripe video to remember which it was, but I had seen that before. It was good! He's very knowledgeable, so watching his stuff has been helpful for me to get the most out of my home roasted coffee.

Mundon,
@Mundon@fosstodon.org avatar

@RL_Dane No, I just make coffee with filtered water from a filter jug. Nothing special. I do have my microwave time dialed in for the water for aeropress, but my gooseneck only boils, so I have to get timing down on that as well...

Mundon,
@Mundon@fosstodon.org avatar

@RL_Dane lol I've heard coffee purists don't do microwaved water..but it works for me.

We have a 500 mL measuring cup that I just put the water in, 2 minutes and 45 seconds of microwaving and it's the perfect temp for my tastes for the AeroPress.

For other coffee options I do the kettle.

I need to stop going down rabbit holes on Youtube/Invidious. I am now getting deep into bread making videos, and have learned a new (to me) technique for kneading flour, and now all I want to do is make bread.

I am sure there are worse impulses to have.

Here's where I started...I've watched this maybe four times since yesterday...

@steve I've been using a dough whisk (so still manual), but now i want to try it this way.

I've also just discovered poolish, which is like a sourdough starter, but only made the night before, no maintenance needed....that's way more my speed! I see myself baking this weekend lol.
