A sometimes-leaking Keurig Elite and wait for a sale on K-Cups or ground coffee. As long is it ain't dark roast, I'm good, although I'd even put up with that mess if that's all you have. Medium roast to maaaaybe medium-dark is good for me. Ain't got no time to be doin' all the 50 ways to make coffee or make it in an anti-gravity chamber and wonderin' if the water temperature is 190 degrees or 189 degrees. I'll try whatever coffee you give me, including Maxwell House and Folgers.
I don't remember what kind of grinder I have. It's good not great, was like $80. Coffee machine is the Oxo On 9 Cup. Beans are usually the Ruta Maya decaf I buy from Costco's site.
Me. Got a Baratza Virtuoso to go with Aeropress. Got a 1zpresso hand grinder to go with Flare pro for the once in a while espresso.
It uses either small papers filter or reusable mesh filter, very forgiving on brew time, grind size, etc. and easy to clean up. You can just pop coffee grinds and filter out after making coffee and rinse a bit. One draw back is that it really only makes one cup at a time.
I have a breville barista express. It makes good coffee. I have always prided myself on being able drink whatever sludge was available though. I was a bit surprised and dismayed with myself when I went back to the office after the covid lockdown and found the coffee nigh undrinkable after going months on my breville. Still drinking it though.
I really need an actual lift or find a friend that has one but needs a hand/tools... Haha. When I rebuilt that newer Mercedes transmission I mentioned some time ago on here... I did it with jack stands, I won't be doing that again. Basically the next thing I need is a lift but waiting to build bigger garage. What height is your ceiling in your garage? Pretty sweet setup!
That **** is scary. The brand name doesn’t fill me with confidence. Props for using your garage for its designed intent while most people park in the driveway and fill their garage up with junk. If you get Renner’d, drop a line and I’ll come see you in the hospital.
Bendpak is a solid brand. I used this to redo my Camry suspension. I don’t like jack stands. https://www.quickjack.com/car-lifts...LYIq3EPxsPeOdX76CLoLR1lkF8xRsrGcaAs4REALw_wcB
once I made coffee with a frying pan & hammer. wasn't a great cup but desperation made it mighty satisfying.
I almost bought some of that stuff on Amazon a few years ago just to try, then I discovered a lot of the stuff you buy online is fake or partially-fake or "made" by civets that are caged up for that purpose. But mostly I decided to not buy it because I said "seriously? you're going to drink poop & beans coffee and pay somebody a ransom to do it?"
That's a good question. At least 14 feet, probably taller. Maybe 18? The cars aren't exactly close to the ceiling.
