shes asian right? FORCE HER TO LIKE IT.

DUH.

there must be some advantage of dating an asian woman besides bleeding you dry and running your life like a gulag.

She has a very pleasant face and demeanour, no CC2 eyebrows and isn't materialistic in any way, so I don't mind going out of my way for little things :)

Nabob Coffee?

I don't like coffee all that much, but I miss my mom's percolated Nabob coffee. I guess I grew up with it. I remember drinking a cup during the special occasions she made it. To each their own, indeed.

The Phillips 3200 LatteGo that's on sale here (https://forums.redflagdeals.com/amaz...99-99-2597988/) is a very decent superauto machine.

God damn. I was thinking if it was something like 399 I MIGHT be able to get the wife to agree. Yeah at $900 it's not happening for me.

Is that like a Winston Slip?

Or you talking about RS's Mr.HappySilp


Probably a slip-up when he created his user name.............. Happy Slip, as in Happy Ending, Slip. So, like a Winston Slip. Not E-Spec approved.

SSM_DC5 01-30-2023 05:32 PM

^yes him

Badhobz 01-30-2023 05:40 PM

$900 isn't even that expensive when it comes to superautos.... The 3200 LatteGo is one of the best bargains out there for a superauto IMO.

399 will get you shitty coffee, no latte, no ice coffee lol.

How is it making “iced coffee” ?

One-Touch Iced Coffee: A slower flow rate and lowered extraction temperature makes for a shot that's perfect when served over ice

Different shot profile to regular espresso/brewed coffee.

Hondaracer 01-31-2023 02:10 PM

Ahh.. so it’s not actually adding ice or anything it’s just pulling a long shot so it can say it makes iced coffee.. lol

cafe22 01-31-2023 02:13 PM

Seems like a marketing gimmick... Most of these super automatic machine uses a pressurized basket, so even at a slower flow rate, the pressure is the same as the 'regular mode'.

Lower extraction temp = less hot water = higher acidity. I would think most consumers who buy this machine would prefer a more 'traditional' tasting coffee with little to no acidity.

roastpuff 01-31-2023 02:47 PM

It probably is a marketing gimmick. I had a Miele superauto myself and eventually was not satisfied with the espresso it was making, and turned to a proper semi-auto set up to make my own drinks. Some days I do miss the one-button easy use of the superautos though!

Printed these for my brother and myself. They work great!

Cost around $10 in materials - filament, needles, and screws. Calipers/wire cutters were extra.

EvoFire 06-10-2023 05:52 PM

Can I see the printed product? Isn't plastic a little weak for this?

Razor Ramon HG 06-10-2023 06:48 PM

Here's a video I took last night right after we assembled it.

There's pictures of it in the Printables link.

I printed it in PETG filament. Works perfectly fine.

Some people have remixed the model.

This guy here made the spin ring thicker and uses that instead of the handle.

Thanks for this suggestion, was in North Van the other day and picked up a Costa Rica blend from then... she really likes it, said it's miles better than any of the grocery store stuff!

EvoFire 07-31-2023 09:28 AM

I have no interest in buying my own nice grinder, and my current grinder really sucks, plus I dislike having to deal with grinding. Anywhere I can take my beans and have them all grinded so I just scoop them in the morning for my coffee?

Before I get crucified for it. Coffee does matter, but in the face of convenience and requirements of two kids, this makes more sense.
