The whole “premature launch” thing has me feeling self conscious.

I wasn’t sure where to drop this - they spelled @DreamTheaterRules ’ alter ego wrong, but he’s got a crystal named after him: https://apple.news/AKG0auPTrSYizwhvqJnx1_g

5. Unless you count the Kemper Stage. Actual pedals - a tuner, a fuzz, a blues driver waza (I list it by name as I’ve never been sure if it’s a boost, OD or distortion), an echo+ reverb and a looper. I could really go down to the tuner and the echo+reverb and the little Mkv25 for the tube rig...

I voted DC because I find them more comfortable. I have no idea if you will.

I finally am getting consistent with the espresso, based on my most recent 2 shots (consistent, 2 shots, lol). Both of them were shots that could be enjoyed straight up. I generally turn them into americanos, just easier on the maturing digestive system. 17.5 g in, 40-ish g out (36 - 42 g). I...

We hit hi 70’s to low 80’s midweek, I’ll give it a go then. I like the idea of adding the sugar before pressing.

You too are a blessed man!

Similar boat, home player, Mesa Mkv25 combo and a modest pedalboard. Volume was always an issue. Many of the same players here, @Bogner @dmatthews @JasonE @DreamTheaterRules @László and a bunch of others helped out, and I ended up going Kemper. I got a stage unit and a powered Kabinet. I use the...

Definitely no hurry! The roasting thing especially is interesting to me, whenever you care to share that. It would be fun to go from green to roasted to grinder to cup on my own.

I was headed to pour overs, and, kinda, accidentally bought an espresso machine instead. Ida probably been just as happy with pour over. I drink americanos most of the time. I’m a gear head though, so the espresso machine kinda fits for me.

Damit - now I have to get a bottle of Sambuca to try it. I've had the traditional Sambuca with 3 espresso beans floating on top.

Wow - I thought pron was not allowed on this site! Stunning. I love the back. I mean I love the whole thing, but I love the back.

I decided to split the coffee stuff out, on the off chance there are other coffee nerds here. The only threads I found with coffee in the title died out 5 or 10 years ago. Here it is, in case anyone here is interested: https://forums.prsguitars.com/threads/coffee-stuff.58275/

I just picked up a new espresso machine. I thought I'd fire up a coffee thread, because the newest one I see is from 2013. We had some discussion here: https://forums.prsguitars.com/threads/new-amp-or-midpriced-modelers-or-is-anyone-here-still-playing-a-tonex.56609/page-15#post-867278 But I...

You’re pretty much set with Tonex then. You can pick up at least a couple Tonex’ for the price of anything close in capability I think.
