☕ - The hot beverage that powers the world!
Coffee gadgets - It's always great to learn about new gadgets. Please share your favorite hardware or full setups. It might inspire newcomers to experiment!
Local businesses - Please promote your local businesses. If you are not the owner of the business you are promoting, kindly ask the owner if it's okay. It would be great if the business has a physical store to include an exterior or interior shot.

There's a pretty big difference between knowing an acronym for a new term about an old technique, and knowing about the technique itself. Anyone who's lived through a winter knows that static is worse when things are drier. Brewers have added water to grain to improve grinding for ages. I've added a spritz of water to beans for a while, and it's not because someone told me to, it was just common sense. This is the first I've ever heard it referred to as the RDT. You were down voted for being condescending about it
The issue here is posting chatgpt answers as fact without knowing remotely enough about the topic to know it's garbage. I wouldn't dare post answers on random topics I know nothing aboutusing chatgpt as my sole guide, its a proper dick move.
It's been a part of the speciality coffee scene since 2005, and a big part of many recommendations to improve grinding. I would be surprised if anyone who has been an active consumer of coffee content hasn't seen it used at least once.
No mate, the issue is someone having to use ChatGPT to try and figure out what you were talking about, simply because you were too lazy to type a phrase, causing this entire comment chain here.
If you're communicating with other people, it's frankly a tad rude to assume that everyone should spend some of their time working out what you're talking about, rather than taking two seconds yourself to type clearly
This might sound harsh, but it's good advice for the world in general, especially in a professional environment
What utter garbage.
Any community particularly one for nerdy hobbies has jargon as part of it's discussion and doesn't have explanations littered in every instance jargon is mentioned. Part of joining in that community is asking or finding out what the jargon means. Asking like an entitled ass over not understanding jargon in a hobby you aren't familiar with shows what sort of person you are.
Again,, I answered the question when asked.
