Huh, I was wondering why 10% of our patrons disappeared overnight. It’s normal for a drop-off at the start of the month but not normally such a large one

Oh the number of times I’ve burned myself during a nozzle change on my 3D printers, lol.

Have you tried the shower head insert from coffeepilot? My least favorite thing about my moccamaster was the uneven distribution & extraction, that solved most of my issues (I still babysit it and use the flow switch for different parts of the brew cycle) & now it makes a better cup than ever before

I get a certain satisfaction out of putting my neo back in it’s case when All’s said and done

An old girlfriend was back in town and she wanted to take some pictures of us playing around for her OnlyFans. After we had done the deed she handed me her phone & told me to pick my favorite pictures & send them to myself. Turns out she has a coworker with the same first name as me & I wasn’t paying attention due to the afterglow…

I haven’t had any problems getting lactose free milk to foam, but I normally use a little beater-whisk-wand-thingy instead of a steam wand or automatic frother, so it’s possible the method will impact how well it froths into a nice foam. The next time I break out my De’longhi instead of my Flair I will experiment & compare foam.

Califa Farms & Oatly have solid “Barista Edition” oat milks that work well for me. If it’s the lactose & not the dairy that’s the problem for you, you can try lactose-free milks; e.g. Kroger has their “Carbmaster” milk which is lactose free, there’s also Fairlife which works just as well as traditional full-fat milk.

If you are unable to get Barista editions or lactose free milks then your best bet would be the creamiest oat milk you can get your hands on.

I’ve also got a fun one like that from working security!

I was working the solo overnight shift during Christmas break at a factory & noticed a gift-wrapped cylinder sitting in one of the common areas. I picked it up to bring to the lost and found & decided to see if there was a name tag or something. Well, there wasn’t a nametag, but there were a few wires poking out that made me realize I was possibly holding a pipe-bomb.

I called 911 while freaking the fuck out and was told to stay calm and very still while they sent someone to save my sorry ass. After about 30 minutes the Michelin Man’s blue cousin strides in, asks me a few questions, & decides it would be safe enough to take the Christmas gift from hell outside to deal with.

While the bomb was being taken care of I took a few cops to the security room to download all of the footage from the past few days. Turns out the gift-wrapped grenade was juuuust out of the cameras view & there was no way to tell exactly when it had been left there.
