    You can control the extraction. Normal is one scoop for each 6oz of water, with a 4 minute steep. Change the amount of coffee and step time to vary the result.

    Even with a good grinder you will end up with some fines, a little sludge right at the bottom of the cup. That is normal, expected.
    Scoop? Blasphemy! Proper French Press coffee requires weighing both the coffee and the water! I know cuz I read it on a coffee snob forum.:D

    Yeah, I read that too :) Kinda like the "right" way to use the press vs. heat water then add kawvee.

    I've got a pretty high accuracy small scale from when we were doing some nicotine measurement stuff years ago. Considered it then said "heck no" :)

    My roasting uses 3 of the large scoops that came with my roaster. My mk1 ears determine cracking, and mk2 eyeballs ( post cataract surgery) determine roast level. Life's too short to sweat whether weight changed by 10% vs. 12% :D

    So the new rta I got is a dream. The Griffin rta by Geek Vape is so good on flavor and build room. I really like the fact that I can put dual claptons on the velocity style deck. ZOMG the flavor is top notch. I had to fiddle with it for at least a day to get it just right. I believe hands down the best tank i have hit yet.

    Does anyone know of one that would hit better on flavor?

    No worries skullblade! I will NEVER, EVER do that again!! :nah: That's a promise!! In reflection on last night even I can't believe that I was that stupid. :(

    Serious biz, Goddess.. We love you, don't want to see you get hurt, jailed, or spend the next 3 years going to classes and paying off $10,000 in fines, plus an equal attorney bill.
    But now it's time to bend over the lap. You aren't the ONLY one you put in danger last night. Some of us has inexperienced children drivers out there.

    Don't. Do. It. Now, that hurt me as much as it hurt you. I swear.

    Continued cold mornings but no snow.

    Thankfully it's looking like we may finally be done with hard freezes. Next weekend may be camp water time :)

    Fixing a dining area table, adding shims on the end pieces to level it off. Then off to the hardware store, scarf some grass seed and more phillips 100w equivalent led bulbs; the ones at hd are nice and bright, good color temperature ( buy the warm/soft white ones), and compact.

    @LynnNC goes to show you are cared about here missy!!

    Also, I think she gets the point here. Let's move on to other wonderful topics.

    What is everyone doing today?
    Other wonderful topics? OK coils are kicking my .... today. I had success the other day with my first ever attempt at dual coils in my goblin, that I figgered easy peasy to do the same with my Mutation. So I set about to do just that today. Nope, not so much success, as utter failure to get a decent build. Ahh well. Just built my first clapton (premade wire) for it, and leaving it as a single coil for now.

    I'm off to poke the bear now.

    @kad2371 fwiw, I'm staying here..

    I have dual accounts but to be honest, I don't feel at home there like I do here. I have to live with rules every day of my life. At work, the government, on the road and some I do not like. But in order to live and work I abide by them. With some of the stuff I've seen posted and read, how many of those posters would want their children read it. Here I wouldn't care if my kids read every word I've posted.

    I wish you well!

    To be clear, if I leave it won't be entirely by choice, nor will it be for what might seem to be the obvious reason. I'm not going to jeopardize this thread though by bringing it here.

    That reminds me incidentally of a time a buddy of mine was doing a cookout/bonfire. We went down to the liquor store to get some necessary supplies. I got mah beer, he got his bourbon, then we realized we were leaving the ladies out so instead of just buying their normal liquid refreshments of choice, he says '
    Ya know, wifey tried a new shot at the Legion recently that she loved, I'm gonna have to see if I can get the stuff to make some.'

    He then says to the guy behind the counter
    'My wife loves Slippery Nipples. How do I make em'
    to which the guy behind the counter replies without even cracking a smile...







    Wait for it...







    'I usually just lick em'
    Hahahaha! That's funny!
