Hi everyone!

I've rejoined the Fediverse. I've been here on and off since the beginning, so I'm familiar with how things work, but I've just moved over from my Mastodon instance to my new GoToSocial instance.

I love popular culture, reading books, watching movies, and occasionally playing video games, mostly on the Nintendo Switch 2. I also do photography but rarely share my pictures online, though I have a Flickr account. I have one cat.

I'm currently reading: Robin Hobb's works. Previously, I've read: Terry Pratchett, Brandon Sanderson, and Kurt Vonnegut.

I use NixOS and KDE.

Nice to meet you!

I've spent a few days drying different #mushrooms and grinding them up as supplements to my morning #coffee. It's been nice, and might have health benefits. There's some research done at smart coffee. But I think it might be marketing and hype, but most of all very expensive.

So I put my new food hydrator to good use 😏

Yesterday's roast into the 1800's manual grinder. You can tell what kind of roast by how it grinds by hand, very similar to how you have a better feel of the road and your vehicle's performance with manual shifting of a transmission. Lighter roasts grind more and have more resistance (more caffeine!). The darker the toast, the easier they see to grind. This one is slightly past a medium, so will taste the roast more than the beans. I like it a little lighter, but my fault for roasting in the dark. Minimal chaff using the heat gun, that might actually just be remnants from the last grind. #coffee

And, final product! Which tastes like coffee, lol. Significantly, my usual cast iron pan roast results in a mixed flavor profile because hand roasting ends up with a range of bean doneness. This is quite different as all the beans are the roast level. Interesting... #coffee

Into a coffee press (metal, because I have broken too many glass ones). Then filtered. Tastes better unfiltered, but the filtering removes coffee oils, which are not great for your cholesterol levels. #coffee

**ps: the half Talenti container (which is about 235ml of volume, unsure on weight) expanded to a full pint, 473ml, now that it's cooled! So, not too terrible of a yield. I didn't realize coffee beans expanded when roasting, but that makes sense (since "first crack" is the same kind of mechanism as popcorn popping) #coffee
