If I were to say that it will be nice and peaceful when my neighbours move out and them and their disruptive ways are all forgotten about , would you think that I was going to kill my neighbours ? -

Have you tried a Clever Dripper for brewing your coffee?
Over the years I've tried so many brewing methods and there are of course pros and cons for all of them. For most of my years in Thailand it's been a French press which is great for brewing strong coffee and keeping lots of the essential oils, though not producing the healthiest version of coffee. In recent years I've just been using an old fashioned electric drip machine with a built in metal filter. OK. Super easy and lazy. Boring. But eventually not the cleanest so maintenance needed. I've never done a purist pour over method like a Chemex as too much of a fuss. Though now my latest enthusiasm is a combo of a pour over and an immersion like a French press in an incredibly easy to use almost fool proof package -- the Clever Dripper. I actually bought a knock off called a Smart Dripper or you could buy a Taiwan dripper, basically the same thing. It uses paper filters so the brew is very clean and for better or worse the result lacks the oils of a French press. I looked at a bunch of youtube "recipes" for the dripper and each one has a different philosophy. This I consider a feature. With a Clever Dripper, you can play around with all the variables for your current bean, experiment to your heart's content to pursue your own coffee nirvana. All that and it's not nearly a fussy as purist pour over. Such things as: water temp water first or coffee first (unlike a pure pour over you can just dump all the water in directly from your kettle) ratio of coffee to water grind level (I've got a burr grinder) stirring technique brewing time The filters that came with it were too small so I've just been brewing it very strong and then diluting the result with water at the end like an Americano espresso. Mechanically, it's so cool. You do all your prep on your counter service including adding the water and nothing goes through. Then you place the dripper on a container or coffee cup and it's designed to then open up the floodgates. I'd have varying results with one fail of too acidic, but overall it's a new style of coffee for me. Very, very clean and a way to bring out more of the flavor of your beans. I'm probably going to be buying better quality beans now to take advantage of that. I guess I'm saying, if you haven't tried a Clever Dripper, I would suggest that you do. -

Why are there 10,000 topics about Trump?
He is behaving much worse than I thought he would this go around but if an election was held next month he would probably win easily. The democratic party is disliked by so many and the focus on Trump is only making the situation worse. Personally I would like to see the democratic party figure out how to turn things around and start representing the average American. Not holding my breath... https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/6-in-10-voters-view-democrats-negatively-wsj-poll/ar-AA1JjDUL -
