I'm doing the frying pan method, I go a few minutes after first crack. Still, these beans may be too lite for an espresso machine that's under $100. My personal pick is the ninja machine, I'm saving up for it.

About the grinder, you want to check reviews and various sites for what's a decent one. I like the encore I have (ESP) due to easy cleaning and ordering of replacement parts.

I used a spice grinder (blade) for a while, but made the switch and can't go back.

The encore is great for its price. You can also upgrade the standard to the esp burrs. However, it does take up space.

Side question, what's your roasting process?

On topic: As others have said. Investing in a proper grinder may be the next step instead of an espresso machine.

Playing them for hardware only is different from paying for hardware and then providing all your personal information 24/7 to them.

You'll be fine, a lot of the shows need to grow, but I think Voyager and DS9 from the gate is pretty solid. However, I agree that DS9 is actually better the more you rewatch. I didn't care too just for it the first time, but on the second watch 💪

Voyager's got that family feel with the cast that you just enjoy being around.

TNG is best to start after season 1. Not saying season one is bad, but it might be harder to get into for a new comer.

Enterprise is good is you like your uniforms tight.

The original series is great to get a lot of the origin information. I guess it's hard for new comers, but I grew up with it, so has a special accepting place in my heart.

Deep Space 9 is my personal favorite for political sci-fi. However, there is the occasional whatever episode. This is best to watch is order all the way through.

I still think that lower decks and strange new worlds can not be fully enjoyed without some other older trek shown under your belt, but it's only a few episodes so you can finish them both quickly.

I abandoned Discovery after season 2 or 3 (I forget) I hear it got ok later on, but idk.

Picard, just watch season 3. I watched the others and then season 3 came out. I forgot about the others.

Cool. A album of all the movie themes could be nice. Greatest hits of start trek.... Star Trek the rainbow album... 🕳️

I wonder if the government still controls the weather?

Season one is alright, I like 5 and 6 actually.

Stranger things season one is the best of that show. Each episode flows great and keeps you going to the next one. It really is a hard one to stop once you start. The later seasons are ok, but never reaching season one greatness for me.

Zootopia has a scene that shows this issue on microwave meals.

Encoding to AV1 is good to cooking CPUs.

The government wants your money and to waste time.
