    I might have crossed my wires, it was probably just a forum post I misread. I happened to have new ceramic burrs so I went ahead and installed them.

    I got closer to a perfect pull this morning after adjusting the right lever! Unfortunately I'm out of that coffee now so the process restarts with the next bag.

    New ceramic burrs.

    I typically use light roast beans, apparently ceramic is better there.

    Went through the hyperalignment procedure and got close but not perfect. Had to move on and get it back together at some point.

    Is this comparing total number of visitors per year to inhabitants?

    If so, it's a misleading graphic because visitors only stay for a week or two.

    We water by soaking the plants in the tub, then letting them sit on towels before going back on the shelf. A bit tedious but only has to be done every 1-2 months.

    Cisco Webex.

    You think teams or zoom are annoying? This is much worse. The worst part is with some default meeting settings, a loud chime would play every time someone joined. People kept this on for meetings of 300+ people, then they started talking over the beeps once "the popcorn slowed down."

    Extraction is heavily controlled by amount of water, temperature, grind size, and time.

    To get an under extracted brew, you would use more water with a shorter brew time with a course grind at a lower temperature. This should give you something that's sour, weak, watery, with a thin mouthfeel.

    Overextraction would be the opposite. Boiling water in a preheated brewing device, fine grind, less water, steeped for a longer time. This should taste dark, bitter, burnt, strong, with a soupy grimy mouthfeel.

    You can make one cup of each at the extremes to taste the difference, and then use that information to tweak your regular brew one variable at a time. Look up the coffee compass to help understand what you're tasting and which direction to move.

    I'm a software engineer who does woodworking, and I approve this message.

    But my favorite explanation: you grab your hand saw, and it works. You don't find out that the latest npm japanese-hand-saw-tooth package is incompatible with plywood, and you need to downgrade the package or buy new plywood to make a cut.

    If you happen to live in a city that has one, check out this online showroom: https://sandmansleep.net/

    I tried all of the mattresses, and was surprised with what I found. The Latex ones weren't as comfortable for me as hybrid foam/coils. On a lot of beds, I could feel the lower firmer layers on my hips laying on my side. Latex felt so springy it was almost trying to roll me off the bed.

    I guess my advice is to try in person however you can. I spent some time looking at naplab, but the scores range from 9.5 to 9.8 so they mattresses aren't even differentiated. In person, there were big differences that weren't captured in the scores, which try to be subjective but miss a lot.

    That's a good point, I thought about that too. Not sure how sturdy that would be. I'd probably step on it and break it eventually.

    Diamond sharpening stones. Still waiting on mine but they were cheap and I got the grits I wanted. Somehow I keep ending up putting new edges on knives, chisels, and other blades. I hear diamond stones remove material faster.

    Agreed, it was a ton of work. The back of the saw was definitely the biggest struggle because of how the motor moved when adjusting tilt and height.

    Sealing the blade shroud might have worked. I'd probably try that first if I did this again.

    The unit "hertz" means "per second". A higher value is still one second, but more events per second.

    Brackets to install garage lights

    Had minimal clearance between these overhead shelves and the garage door, and the perfect light spacing was a few inches away from the cross bars. So I designed these snap fit brackets to offset the lights inline. The lights make a huge difference, much more pleasant to work in the garage. What I learned: * there is some sag because the screws aren't at the top of the bracket. I would add a tab that protrudes on the side so I could add a screw higher. * the screw face split on layer lines on a few of these. Still works but not perfect, so I would make the screw face thicker. ![](https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/9a7613ea-a380-4ca5-92a1-23844520f4fe.jpeg) ![](https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/c198bdc8-c3ea-483b-906c-85e4f546f738.jpeg) Also printed cable management clips ![](https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/7fe9d46a-4831-4f01-9345-1adc0bf2e9d7.jpeg)
