Agreed that consuming outside is no issue right now. In the same sense, you are a special kind of *sshole if you BYO at a restaurant that serves alcohol. Just get take out. Don’t monopolize one of the few tables they have if you’re not going to buy booze too. These people are hurting. At least get ...

another 2005 fourrier gev vv that's totally ready and gorgeous.

the bonavita has a pre-infusion and it's dirt cheap for how good the coffee is. no clue if it'll last 10 years, but for around $120 it's a no brainer. not only is the water tank graduated, but the lines have suggested coffee weights in grams. that is beyond delightful.

Horrible article. And he does not sell wine. One of the biggest wine stores in NYC told me they get more requests when a wine is mentioned on daily candy that in the NY Times. that's an odd thing for a wine store to say since daily candy closed years ago. given the number of emails i get referencin...

Next week I think will be easier.

As for alcohol consumption outside, there are no rules right now. It’s pretty amazing.

Thx, I will check that out. One can sharpen a serrate knife using a diamond or ceramic "honing" rod. It is a PITA but makes a big difference. I can't seem to get my shun to stay sharp and my wife makes bread all the time so it is key. had no idea! wow. well, this one slices bread perfectly forever,...

On the subject, does anyone have a great rec for a high quality break knife? Prefer one of high quality which can be sharpened relatively easily (yes I know how to do this reasonably well). We have a Shun bread knife which while fine is pretty awful to sharpen as that metal is super hard and genera...

came across this on drop. was looking for a new "beater" type gyoto and this seems to fit the bill well. does anyone know about Fujiwara Kanefusa knives? i see them on a lot of chef-type knife sites. $57 for a solid gyuto? https://drop.com/buy/kanefusa-japanese-kitchen-knives?utm_source=linkshare&re...

Is there a huge variation in the air temperature such that you want to observe any potential variation in liquid temperature? If the air temperature is pretty steady, then the liquid temp will be too ... On multiple occasions, I’ve taken a bottle temperature with an infrared contactless thermometer...

don's right, but to make it even easier and cheaper buy the kumo sensor and a compatible probe on amazon such as this; https://www.amazon.com/Aideepen-DS18B20-Waterproof-Temperature-Stainless/dp/B07RDFMR6Q this is the sensor you should buy: https://goo.gl/D8ZWfL you'll also need the tag manager, whi...

add egg and make a panade (the breadcrumbs by themselves depending on the ratio will dry out the meatballs). also, use a higher % fat meat mixture. once you have the blend down, you can whip them in a mixer for a little air. works quite well. and this will be accurate 98% of the time: start at serio...

I appreciate this commerce corner and have already picked up some nice wine through it. The common convention for risk is that it is on the buyer. The common custom for shipping varies. Some sellers include shipping in the wine price while others will state that buyer pays for shipping. What is the...

The issue we have isn’t Funke’s obsession, it’s the idea that if you’re not doing it his way, you’re doing it wrong . That’s bullshįt, but.... I can live with it.

lots of articles re adding baking soda to the water, something about alkaline water to crisp up taters.

weird; kramer's book lists it as 1.2298 ha/3 acres, but no owners at all.

my take is that if you like the nespresso, you should def stay with that. a dedicated machine plus a good enough grinder (more important than the machine imo) will likely frustrate you AND result in coffee that you won't like as much.

ybarselah

the temp of the water doesn't matter for obvious reasons, nor does distilled etc. the ice has to freeze directionally and that's what those insulators do (freezes from top down). a cheaper way is just to fill a large container (metal bowl works well), fill with water, and freeze that. remove and the...
