    Are we really this pathetic?

    Indeed. And sometimes its not even all that much offgassing. All you need is something other than nothing. Sometimes that inch of water will kick up an inch thick layer of foam... most of the time it will just be nice and creamy... and actually creamy is best as it indicates that enough of the...

    Are we really this pathetic?

    190F/88C for us I pour enough water on the grounds to cover them by an inch, give it a swirl to mix, and then let it sit for a 10 count. I then observe the grounds to see it they have started to froth. A fresh bean will release a goodly amount of gas akin to yeast proofing. If there is no...

    Are we really this pathetic?

    It should at least triple the richness if anything. They are probably not using near enough coffee or giving it enough time to brew.

    Don't get me wrong. I wouldn't like to paint over a precious harwood either... but the stuff I'm painting onto is really nothing more than common knockabout softwoods.

    Are we really this pathetic?

    If the guide was something trying to get you to pair up mocha java hazelnut with a whitefish dish... yeah... thats pathetic. If it was a guide telling you what the roasting levels and flavor outcomes were, that is kind of important. I tend to overthnk my coffee and can make it 100 different...

    The buffet and hutch was a soulless piece of pine and color conflicted. Now it is the life of the party.

    That would be yet another scrubber holder. It has a 2 inch crossection of a loofa sponge. I use it for pans that need a natural fiber so not to destroy the finish. I also use it to lightly brush the crud out of our cast iron... without soap, mind you... gotta protect that seasoning. It works...

    Perhaps you just need knobs that have the contents spelled out on them. Yes... the cabinet that says 'glasses' really is glasses... you dipshit. Or... instead of words... literal pictures. A little pewter dish for dishes, a martini glass for glasses... I'm sure they exist.

    Don't get too wild. Those uppity drawer pulls end up being anywhere from $25-$55 apiece.

    Inky's mixed up life

    Its just a funny universal trick that happens between people at the start of a relationship. They wont fart around each other, they tend to clean up their habits and language, they try to present a model of desirability and health to cement the attraction. They have to be able to relax and let...

    I just took a few hasty pics pre-coffee here at 620 am... so the flash and color corrections from sheer darkness is killing most of the warmth. These photos are more clinical that real life. In real life, everything looks awesome :D All inner cabinets have a single coat of urethane for...

    Oh yes... they look very nice. The kitchen is 100% done now that I have just recently put in the buffet and hutch. It was a raw pine set from an unfinished furniture joint. I had just spent 40-50 man hours over the last three weeks disassembling, sanding, priming, 2 coats of paints, and a...

    Our contractors brother was the flooring guru... and he apparently just recently entered into a brutal divorce... so... sigh.
