Parts of it, but much of it is metal. Feels a lot sturdier than an Encore. I have owned both.

I have an older commandate, which is pretty fantastic and an Ode 2 for when I’m lazy or want to brew bigger batches. Also great.
At some point I have also owned a hario skerton, which was shit, a baratza encore and later on a baratza virtuoso, which were both decent. Then I had a Mahlkonig Vario W (in the us that’s also baratza, I think), which was really good, but a bit of a bitch maintenance-wise. That was also the only one that died on me. Except the skerton, but that one never really lived in the first place.
The bypass thing is real. It doesn’t matter all that much but it makes a difference. That’s why most geeks will also tell you to pour on the grounds, never on the paper.
You should check out the tricolate brewer. Full-immersion, but designed to have no bypass. And it makes surprisingly good coffee. I was dubious at first, but it is kind of neat.
It’s projecting. And delusion.
First words are also often ‘mam’ ‘mum’ and a bit later ‘da’ or ‘pa’, not because babies love their parents, but because those are the easiest sounds to mimic.
So we adopted those sounds/words to mean mother and father. Not the other way around. We are really good at finding arguments to fit our view and narrative.
I think the writer meant to say 'gone rogue' instead of 'AWOL'. Just poor writing skills.
It’s the fermentation process. You’ll find it more in natural processed coffees or honey processed. Even more so with anaerobic fermentation or yeast based fermentation.
What you’re looking for is washed coffee, or commodity coffee with no mention of the processing. Or dark roasts, as the taste of heavily roasted coffee will negate a lot of the taste that is inherent to the bean and the processing. A bit like a well-done steak.
Find an Italian place. Or an old mom and pop shop. Or you can always lick some of the burnt tires that you find along the highway if you really miss the taste of that robusta shot. /s
To each their own. No need to crap on what other people like.
These look nice. Haven’t seen them in the EU yet.
I wear a lot of clarks shoes and I have found that it greatly depends on the model. I have two pairs (craftdean wing, I think) that are easily six years old and I wear them a lot. Just service them once a year and they still look like new. But I owned another pair (not wings, they were dressier) that lasted me only two years. Perhaps the shoes in the outlet are not the sturdiest?
I have some wallabees and desert londons too and they used to be lower quality because the crepe sole would wear out fast. Last year I bought the black EVO versions and they barely wear out at all.
So clarks is still good in my book. I have two pairs of chelsea boots of the brand vagabond too, and they are great too!
Good chance the upper class were already familiar with the spices. The LSD and Warheads candy on the other hand...
I often play a game called Sailwind. Very relaxing, but impressively deep sailing sim. It's been early access for a couple of years, but the (solo-)dev is active, new features are added all the time. If he would release a paid, cosmetic dlc: I'd buy it in a heartbeat. I think it would be nicer than to "get him a coffee" or sub to his patreon.
What I'm trying to say is: not all early access is bad, not all paid dlc is plain greed. And the combo is not necessarily toxic.
If there is like 12gr left, I’ll adjust my recipe a bit and make smaller cup. Especially if the coffee is very bold or funky.
Otherwise I’ll mix it with beans that are similar. I usually have four or five bags open.
