Reading the two comics on DST and then hearing the newshounds explain how to cope with the the hour change

I ask - does this Really effect any one here? For me its a non-happening. Other than changing the numerous clocks involved it has Zero effect on my next day. None. Anyone with DST issues that actually has an effect on you? Other than just not liking it or wanting to leave it one way or the other.

The only time DST affected me was when Indiana finally went on DST about 8 years ago....I turned my bedroom clock the wrong way! I was WAY early for work that day :D

Speaking of coffee, our Bunn BXB Velocity Brew coffee maker cannot brew more than 8 cups of coffee without the grounds overflowing the official Bunn filters.  Some slightly larger basket filters (not Bunn) are better.

 

Full disclosure, we use a Cuisanart burr grinder set to "fine" to grind whole bean coffee.  We prefer coffee black and strong, and have found that any grind other than "fine" produces coffee that is weaker than we prefer.

 

What do other Bunn Velocity Brew users find regarding filters and coffee strength?

No snow here guys but over 2" of rain.  Hang in there.

Like the music videos Mike.

Going out for a hair cut at 11:30.....the only plans for the day.  Day two of the Atkins Diet.  Need to lose 8 pounds....quick.

Concerned about Chuck.....has anyone heard from him? 

Steve is a shortimer now.  Moving day right around the corner.

Hey there Diz................the FINE grind is what is causing the overflow....   Try backing up a bit more toward a medium grind..   Bet that will not happen..

 

Ok, I went back to bed, slept for a couple of hours!   I needed it because of the clock change and the rough day climbing around and tuning a pipe organ for 5 hours!  Anyway, here are some screen shots....IMG_3441.jpg......and the Gold Finches WITH our traditional winter snowbirds (Junkos) are all at the feeders full force :D IMG_3448.jpg

Ceptor, I will get the little 'snojoe' electic blower fired up when it gets to about the 6" mark....   It worked out really well the past couple of storms we have had...   :emotion-21:

I suspected as much.  The dilemma is the coffee was weak at other than fine grind, which prompted adding more coffee, which leads to overflow of grounds.  Damned either way.  We'll experiment to see if we can find the sweet spot.
