For those in SLC, there is an interesting twist to Spider's story. The owner of Publik coffee is Spider's daughter. She should tell the story, it's fascinating.

Also, I hung out for a time...

if you don't want to spend the money on the rebar/cages stuff; checkout the Florida Weave method. It cheap and effective. Fall cleanup is easier, if you sisal twine. I use T-posts fence posts. ...

In the Reed Hastings/PowMo article did you see the mention about "MoonBikes"? I didn't know what they were. BINGED it, some sort of French eSnow Bike. It looks like another annoyance for the...

I have one. I came from a Whirly Pop coffee roaster. The artisan thing is an issue mostly because you can't share roast info. What's nice is the added roasting capacity, and lots'o control with...

With Ascension skins, you stretch the skin from the tail. The tail piece flaps around and doesn't hold the tension. It is also a PIA to reach back behind you to pull the skin from the back when you...

I've been frustrated for years with the tail fastening systems for skins. They never hold and always flap around. I'm looking at changing to BD's new corded tip attachment or the coltex one. Who...

tgapp,

What's your review on the Weber grinder? Thumbs up or down? How does it compare to the Niche? Buy it again?

Have you found on great greens to roast?

I ordered the Galo. I happened to be in Oakland a couple of weeks ago. I went to the Royal Tasting Room and tried it there. It was good. But with their free shipping and no CA tax. waited to buy...

Did you get the Galo from Royal? Is it the washed or the natural? That looks delicious.

Do you think this is a good explanation for flow control?

It's not so simple as "private property". The land was part of SITLA land swap. Home Lease holders in the area have right away access, granted to them under SITLA. Those rights didn't go away with...

I agree, this is the best coffee discussion on the web right now. So much knowledge shared, with unbiased reviews of equipment, beans and technique.

Roasting kicks my ass. You have to have...

I will be selling a Niche.

There is nothing wrong with it, and I really like it. There is no sane reason to change, but coffee and the pursuit of the perfect cup, causes irrational behavior. I've...

Talking about grinders, and grinder envy;

Tgapp how's the new Weber? Is it worth getting? I have credit to get one, but being somewhat fiscally responsible (but coffee gear irresponsible); i need...

K, here's a new topic to talk about. One that might fit in between Splat's "artistic" contributions to TGR and the constant bitchin" of the decline of western civilization because of the IKON pass. ...

It sounds like you may have done this already, but check the holes of wand. Sometimes one or more of them get plugged. Also with the tip off you can check to see if the problem is pressure with the...

I got the flow control for the e61. It very interesting to use so far. I'm trying to dial in how best to use it. There are a few blog posts/vids on the internet, but they are little all over the...

Interesting. I guess I'll be buying one. Where's the best place to buy Whole Latte Love?

TGAPP, will you please educate me about flow control devices. Should I buy one, how they work and how you use them.

thanks

I've been meaning to chime in on this thread for awhile, but tgapp has been echoing everything i would add. ZZZ, I hope you realize that you're at the beginning step of a addiction. Once you start...

Thanks for the beta. I'm in SLC around 15th and 15th. I'd love to roast with you.

Tgapp,
Where are you looking to get your Aillio? Sweet Maria's or direct? I've been looking at them for the past couple of years but have not pulled the trigger. One, because I'm new to roasting...

Freeze the tomatoes first on a cookie sheet then vacuum seal frozen. No need to blanch and peel them. When you thaw them to use, the tomato skins will peel off. Another good option is get a...

tgapp,
how do you control the roasting smoke? And who makes your roaster? Are the controllers and thermocouplers part of it or did you hack them. I haven't seen one that looks like that before.

Today's tomato yield. Now to spend the day giving it away or processing. Stink bugs are a problem. Other than smashing them or diatomaceous soil, what have you found to be the best way to deal with...

La Sportiva Spectre. Great pair of boots. Size 28. Asking $300

It was 7 straight days of bluebird with cold temps. It was good to get a visual of all the terrain. It was the second time for me to Icefall. Here's a shot of Le Clit from my trip before.147454

We were the next group after you. We had a full week of sun and glacier travel. Icefall is a great hut and Larry is an incredible host.147347

It depends on what you want do. Here's a lead for someone that can point in a direction. She's great. She's a physical and rehab medicine doc.

He noticed them and made several Larry type comments. I thought they were some type of snow crop circles meant to communicate with extraterrestrials. Either that or a bad mushroom experience.

I was there a couple of weeks ago. No new snow, but lots of sunshine to get up high on the glaciers. North shady slopes skied very well. The food was great. Allison cooked for us, but Mo is in...

You have a pm.

Did you try the hot air popper route before you went to the Hottop?

this is a little more than your budget, but it looks interesting.

I got one from B&H on Monday. I haven't had time to test it out yet in the bright sun. The best thing I've seen so far is the screen on the front that tells you what the settings are without having...
