  • I mean, an open and seemingly poorly censored market place of assets and “experiences” targetted at children sounds like a recipe for disaster to begin with. Many parents aren’t technologically adept enough to look past the website, seeing it’s marketed at children and going “must be fine”.

    This isn’t a defence, but the world gets more and more complicated every day and people are just asked to deal with it… Seems like many governments have just given up trying to regulate anything, and therefore there’s no incentive for trash companies like Roblox to put in any protections.







  • Yess, always love to see a fresh convert to the magic that is the Aeropress. Welcome to the club friend. My favourite thing to harp on about when anyone is getting into coffee. Try to buy from a local roaster, and buy a diverse range of coffee. I get so much joy from experiencing just how diverse coffee can be, and I feel a lot of people get locked into one blend from their local supermarket.

    Single origin is more expensive, but being able to taste the difference between a nutty smooth Brazilian coffee and a fruity fermenty Goji Natural Processed bean is wild.




  • My guy, going from Zero to 100 so fast. Love to see it.

    Food for though on grinders: How much coffee are you going to be grinding at once? Do you need an electric grinder?
    The are very good manual grinders that will produce as good if not better results for half the price of the Ode.
    I own a C40 Mk4 Nitro Blade seen here And I absolutely love it. The ritual of cranking the beans through the grinder is kinda therapeutic for me.

    Regarding beans please do not stop at this one brand.
    For me, the magic of specialty coffee is just how different a cup of Guji Ethiopian coffee can taste from a Brazilian coffee.
    Find some local specialty roaster and start sampling the expansive world of coffee.

    Welcome to the club, it’s great to have you.








  • Filter coffee is generally weaker then say, Espresso. (And by weak, I mean, disolved coffee per volume of water) But, for a stronger brew, I suggest more coffee, and a longer brew time

    I have been using the Aeromatic app to see what it people are up to with their Aeropress recipes and just kinda adjusting to see if I like it.

    My first brews were with a darkish espresso blend, and it came out quite bitter, so I adjusted down the extraction time, this made a more palatable brew for myself and my wife.
