Rivervalleymgb Posted July 18, 2016 Share Posted July 18, 2016 Forgot to tell Judy to pickup some pup-eroni. The big dogs are happy with their large Milk Bones, but the little have gotten so spoiled to Pup-eroni that they refuse to take anything else. Tongues are hanging out due to the AC being out. Waiting on AC guy to tell me the heartbreaking price of replacement. First cup gone. Slept with the windows open, but it just now got down to 75. Supposed to be 100 the rest of the week here. The humidity right now is only 84%... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tarheel Posted July 18, 2016 Author Share Posted July 18, 2016 Four different trades at LF's house at 8 this morning. Parking will be at a premium. Light at the end of the tunnel now. Julia and I made it 24 years......taken way too early Get those ACs working guys it's going to be a scorcher. How's the head this morning Carl? LF and the crew caught a bunch of fish in the tournament. Had to throw several King Mackerel back.....under size and protected. Working stiffs go out there and make us proud.

DizRotus Posted July 18, 2016 Share Posted July 18, 2016 (edited) COFFEE Dialing in the burr mill whole bean thing is proving more challenging than anticipated. The birthday pot of 8 O'Clock Colombian came out weak at 6 scoops for 4 cups. Take 2 was better at 8 scoops for 5 cups. I'm talking cups of coffee as Bunn defines them, not a "cup" as in a 16 oz cup. It's clear the fresh ground is not as strong scoop for scoop as the pre-ground. We're using the medium grind setting on the burr mill grinder. Intuitively, I would expect the fresh ground to be stronger, but the opposite seems to be the case.

Are you doing one scoop per 6 Oz? 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marvel Posted July 18, 2016 Share Posted July 18, 2016 Wife's at work, the garden is watered, having first cup of coffee... Still getting quotes for some tree removal. Prices are ranging from $3k to $5400. Bruce 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DizRotus Posted July 18, 2016 Share Posted July 18, 2016 (edited) Are you doing one scoop per 6 Oz? Yes, sort of. At medium grind, 1 scoop/6 oz cup is too weak. We'll try fine grind. The coffe recommends medium grind for drip. Perhaps the Bunn velocity brew is not "drip." Edited July 18, 2016 by DizRotus 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One company came and looked, shook his head and said it was too large a job for them. They are just getting to the end of their life span...

JL Sargent Posted July 18, 2016 Share Posted July 18, 2016 (edited) We've had some excitement this morning. I just pulled this big Chicken Snake out of my dad's coop. I count 5 eggs he's eaten. Can you see them? Edited July 18, 2016 by JL Sargent 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
