Got my new bean cellar in today, a much more premium version of the previous six-station one I used. Features of this one:

  • metal, one way valve metal caps with silicone ring
  • much wider aperture to pour the beans in
  • 22g max capacity per tube
  • base is like, REALLY nice - walnut, finished well, grippy silicone feet
  • comes with a perfect little collapsible funnel
  • 12 tubes in total.

do you freeze your beans? Batch freezing and grinding straight from freezer?
These look like a set up for that.

@coffeegeek @coffee @espresso
I had looked into freezing based on reports that beans colder when grinding were more consistent - but not sure I had a good enough grinder even for that.

Chemical structure won't change (though idk maybe some isomerism - but no need to get that complicated). I suspect more of a lipid phase issue that may impact extraction. Maybe (akin to) freeze-fracture of lipid bilayer

A case of a researcher's thesis being plagiarized in a journal article. She needs a good lawyer. If you wrote it and someone else uses it, it's . You're still the creative author.
IMHO the fact the people who wrote the journal article just copied big chunks of her work show lazy work.
Sounds like the universities and the journal aren't taking this seriously enough.

"In response, the Nutrients editorial office said “It is considered that this is not plagiarism, because thesis materials are not classified as prior publications.” "

Wut?! A thesis is a publication! Dartmouth Health better start protecting their researchers' IP...

It's very disappointing that our millions of snarky, sophisticated comments haven't fixed all the problems yet.
