I mean, it’s just a quick soapy sponge wipe and you should clean your moka pot after each use anyway.

It’s stainless steel, so Puly Caff.

This is a perfectly valid point of view, and for the first few months, I seriously doubted I could ever match a decent roaster. Now I can make exquisite coffee. Meh coffee too, don’t get me wrong. But the more I learn, the more I can trust my instincts, the more I’m able to unlock some potential by tweaking temperature or time into 1C. Some beans still elude me (I had a Sidamo that smelled heavenly when green but that I could never roast properly), but it’s, I think, true for most roasters except the very best. For me it’s the ultimate step into complete coffee obsession. You need to truly know your beans to roast them properly. And then I can still play with grind size and temperature and pressure and time when pulling shots to make the best out of them.

I image if ventilated safely and well it likely gives off a rewarding aroma too?

Once the smoke is gone from the kitchen, the smell of freshly roasted coffee lingering in the house for the rest of the day… Man this is just heaven, makes you crave a nice cup instantly.

Infinite quality/price ratio!

Haha what changed?

Add a bit of oil as a “thermal paste”/interface between the adapter and the pot. I use a tiny frying pan as an adapter for my Turkish cevze and it’s night and day.

Funny, I bought the same model yesterday on a clearance sale 😅

Still figuring it out too, I might use it as a travel brewer next to my Flair and/or my wife’s Aeropress.

As an aside I tested all the parts with a magnet and it’s full stainless, so you can thoroughly clean it with PulyCaff or Cafiza unlike Aluminium ones.

Yay for full stainless steel! You can fully clean it with Cafiza/Pulycaff for a perfect cup!

Absolute madman.

(Ok I know it’s super normal and traditional in some places like Ethiopia, but super fresh beans are horrible it’s like licking an ashtray, you need to rest them at least a few days/weeks)

Yeah honestly even if it’s objectively better than a popcorn popper, I’m not sure it’s 10x-the-price better 😅

Is it really worse tho? A single build, against a single runtime, free from distro specificities, packaged by the devs themselves instead of offloading the work on distro maintainers?

So is your setup in your house? I understand there’s quite a bit of smoke and it can really smell your house out if you do it indoors.

I live in an apartment so I don’t have much choice. There’s indeed a ton of smoke, however with the kitchen window open and the door closed, it’t rather contained.

Do you let the coffee degas a bit before you brew with it? What’s your preferred brew method?

Yes. 24h degas + 1-3 weeks aging. I almost exclusively brew espresso.

You said you do 4x 250g batches per session. I assume that’s 250g of raw green beans going into the roaster… what’s the yield per batch coming out at the end?

Yes. 250g of green beans yield about 215-220g of roasted coffee.

How do you source your green beans?

Online. I might be interested with alternatives in the EU.

A curl piped into a shell or some unofficial packages from various distros.

At this point I don’t get why these projects are not Flatpak-first.

Happens to everything that becomes a commodity.

But Model Ms and Model Fs are still in production, and the MK ecosystem has never been so vibrant

Europe is not homogenous in political landscapes, and “coalition government” means very different things depending on where you are.

There are countries like France where most elections are first past the post, with a very strong culture of “a single party must have an absolute majority in order to govern” and a system that leads to 2-3 heavily dominant parties. Coalitions like NFP are therefore devised before the elections, so they basically function as a single party with diverging internal ideologies.

There are also a lot of counties where most elections are some kind of proportional representation, where a single party almost never gets an absolute majority. Coalitions are negotiated after the elections, often made of parties with widely diverging ideologies but still trying to work together. I believe that it’s a more democratic system as there is better representation, governing parties keep each other in check and consensus culture helps taming the most radical elements despite its inherent instability.

As we are, we are in a Northern European situation with no majority despite ou electoral system, but we would need a massive shift in political culture in order to get there. Our tankies (LFI mostly) and neolibs (Ens) spent so much time in the last years shitting on each other that they refuse to work together despite it being the only way to get an absolute majority and actually get shit done and make the fascists irrelevant.

I moved my SSD from my old 8th gen Intel laptop to my brand new Zen 4 Framework 16. It was absolutely uneventful. Almost disappointing 😅

Wait I always use a fuckton of raw garlic in my hummus and it’s fuckin delicious

Please, I do need this recipe. For reasons.

Linux or Windows?

As for your questions:

• this CPU will be fine for years for absolutely everything except AAA gaming.
• On Linux, 16Gbs of RAM is fine. As other said, prefer 2x8Gb instead of a single 16Gb.
• 250Gb of storage is very cramped by modern standards. I would go at least 512Gb. Buy your SSD from elsewhere, it’s much cheaper.
• maybe grab an extra USB-C in case you need to plug an external drive while charging your PC.
