  • The only thing I didn’t get: after making the ground precipitate to the bottom naturally, one could just filter it in a V60 without any issue. Normally I make cold brew with coarse ground coffee. Then I separate it in two steps, firstly pouring water in a caraffe leaving most of the grounds behind and then filtering the much cleaner liquid in the V60, which then takes much less time (but yeah more than filtering hot coffee) With his method the liquid poured is even cleaner even without additives, so I guess they’re not necessary at all









  • I’ve tested it for a while. My thought is that Aeropress really saves you in situations where actually you can’t have precise measurements and fancy equipments, that is an office where you can’t weight things and you have to measure quantities very roughly by eye

    In this kind of situation I really can’t see how the reversed method improves the process. Everything is so simple and approximate that loosing some drops of water on the bottom really doesn’t change much.

    Also, just using a 2 filters and creating a vacuum I guess is enough to cancel even that issue




  • Judge reverses herself, allowing Northville to close downtown streets this summer after all

    That’s good news, however it’s not like other opposing businesses owner doesn’t have a point

    Specialty retail stores in the city’s downtown area seem to be doing OK, she noted. Those like hers, who sell clothing or other goods that can be found in many other locations, are not.

    “Nobody asked us if we wanted closures,” Kauffman said. “Nobody came and talked to our business about what it would mean for us. Nobody’s supplementing my rent to make up for the losses that I have because I’m paying rent based on 30,000 to 60,000 cars a day. That’s the part that upsets me the most.”

    I mean, I live in Europe but specifically in Italy, not exactly the ruling country in the field of walkable and carless road systems, so I get that people living in USA are extremely disadvantaged in this sense, but exactly because I live in Italy I also understand what it means when an authority makes chances that are good on paper but very badly executed in reality, that’s why I honestly can’t blame completely the people who disagreed with the closure

    However I really hope they will be able to keep the neighbourhoods closed and safe in the end, but complaints needs to be listened and the people struggles acknowledged
