Yeah. It's stupid expensive, but you probably know the feeling. I mostly made the post to make sure that I didn't miss something obvious that was better or if the grinder is not actually performing as advertised. I'm not so familiar with all the various brands.

[–] TDCN@feddit.dk 1 points 1 week ago (2 children)

I don't mind the style so much. I think it's pretty classic. I do care about esthetic and I like a white grinder which Eurika has as well, but the look is secondary to the workflow of the machine and build quality.

Any other brand you'd suggest instead?

[–] TDCN@feddit.dk 1 points 1 week ago

How do you find the build quality? I looked at one about 4-5 years ago and it felt very cheap and plasticy on a first hand feel. How is it holding up?

[–] TDCN@feddit.dk 1 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Yes it is expensive but I just want a really good grinder where I dont have to compromise and will last a long time. I want to gift myself something nice where I do t have to deal with small annoyances like poor workflow/design, annoying buttons or unnecessary electronic that can break, cheap materials that won't last more than ~5 years, uneven grind or a messy grinder that spills coffe on the table constantly (I had one of those and I hated it)

I'm not really interested in a manual grinder.

I princippet er det noget vi måske kunne få svar på helt automatisk ved at kigge på data fra serveren.

Lyder unødvendigt besværligt at sætte op 😅 nogle gange er det nemmere bare at spørge. Data kan være spoofed eller forkert kodet.

Ps man kunne også i undersøgelsen spørge ind til hvordan folk har der med AI og især "AI slop". Der kunne spørges ind til om folk har oplevet AI slop som et problem eller om folk selv har postet noget AI genereret på feddit.dk vel og mærke. Eller du kan sikkert selv finde på bedre spørgsmål. Det var bare en løs tanke jeg ville nævne.

Et par spørgsmål til den næste brugerundersøgelse kunne være noget om hardware og software til at tilgå fediverset.

Bruger folk mest mobilen eller pc eller noget 3.?

Hvilken software bruger folk på telefon, f.eks. browser eller tredje part app. Hvad bruger folk på pc?

Har folk notifikationer slået til/fra på deres enhed?

Føler brugerne at de bruger for meget/lidt tid på Feddit?

Oplever du bugs/fejl på Feddit?

Kunne måske være med til at kaste lys over hvordan folk bruger Feddit og hvordan brugerfladen og opslag måske skal ændres (eller ikke ændres) for bedst muligt at afspejle hvordan folk bruger eller ønsker at bruge Feddit?

[–] TDCN@feddit.dk 3 points 1 week ago

Aner ikke hvorfor det er så dyrt lige pludselig. Blev selv ret overrasket da jeg tilfældigvis tjekkede, hvorfor jeg lavede dette opslag for at gøre jer andre opmærksomme på det.

Håber det er okay at poste dette i !nyheder@feddit.dk. Selv om det ikke er en artikkel så er det vel stadig en aktuel nyhed som folk kan snakke om og er relevant på samme måde som hvis DR.dk havde skrevet om det (Hvilket jeg ikke lige kan se at de har)

For mig er symbolikken i lovgivningen godt nok. Det kan forhåbentlig være med til at rygere tager lidt mere ansvar hvis de ved at de ikke må ryge i et givet område. For mig er det værste den arrogance det udstråler fra rygere når de bare smider deres skodder alle vegne og det føles som det er en ret de forbeholder sig. Ved at gøre det ulovligt at ryge vil dem som stadig trænger forhåbentlig være lidt mere diskret og forhåbentlig rydde op efter sig eller tage skodderne med. Jeg har personligt egentlig ikke noget imod at folk ryger og hvis jeg ser en på en åben togstation i den ene ende og ryge en smøg gør det mig egentlig ikke noget, men i og med det er forbudt vil jeg være mere tilbøjelig til at råbe op og påpege forbudet (gælder forhåbentlig også andre) hvis det var til gene et sted hvor der er mange mennesker.

Der skal vi også have herhjemme. Er så træt af klamme cigaretskodder overalt på strande og i parker, selv om det generelt er blevet væsentligt bedre de seneste par år.

I really need som tips on how to avoid getting trapped by my own hyperfokusing.

I very often i get completely consumed by either youtube shorts or something similar and i loose complete sense of time and spends literally 5 hours on just doom scrolling and wasting time. The worst part is that I'm hyperly aware that I'm doing it the whole time and I really want to stop but I just won't shake myself off of it. I feel so bad because i should go walk the dog or go do my hobies instead. It happens the most often when I'm supposed to work from home and it makes the guilt feel even worse. If only I could do something for myself at least while not actually working. The only way I've found working so far is blocking the websites from me using blockers but I know that I'll just either circumvent them or find something else that's equally bad for me to hyperfokus on. And I do have legitimate reasons to use YouTube sometimes for work for tutorials etc so blocking it doesn't really work so well for me.

How do I get out when I find myself in that trapped state? Let me know how you are dealing with it.

I wanna add that I'm medicated with methylphenidate but it doesn't really work on getting out of the trap if I've first gotten in.

 

Danish rye bread, known as "rugbrød," is a staple in Danish cuisine, renowned for its dense texture and rich, slightly tangy flavour. My recipe however is on the milder side and is probably more palatable to people from outside Denmark. This bread is packed with whole grains and seeds, making it not only delicious but also nutritious. Unlike lighter, airier wheat breads, Danish rye bread has a robust, chewy consistency that pairs perfectly with a variety of toppings. It's commonly enjoyed as an open-faced sandwich, topped with an array of ingredients such as cold cuts, cheeses, smoked fish, eggs, fresh vegetables, or simply just a good layer of butter. Whether for breakfast, lunch, or as a snack, Danish rye bread provides a satisfying and wholesome base for any meal.

I hope this recipe will work for you, and please let me know if the bread doesn't turn out well, as the recipe always works perfectly for me every single time. I buy flour at the local discount food store, but I've used many different brands, and it still works just as well.

Good luck and feel free to send pictures of your results.

Everyday Rye Bread with Lots of Seeds

Ingredients

the recipe is for a single loaf of rye bread fitting a 3L bread pan

  • 10 g fresh yeast (3g dry i think)

  • 3 dl buttermilk/kefir/yoghurt or whatever you have on hand.

  • 5 dl water

  • Juice of 1 lemon

  • 12g salt

  • 365 g rye kernels

  • 200 g wheat flour

  • 270 g rye flour

  • 315 g additional seeds, mix as you like, e.g.

    • 90g flaxseeds
    • 90g sunflower seeds
    • 90g walnuts
    • 45g chia seeds
    • 1 Tbsp dark malt flower (optional)

For the additional seeds, you can instead also use:

  • A handful of cranberries
  • Wheat kernels
  • Pearl barley
  • Chopped almonds
  • Hazelnuts
  • Oats

Mixing

Dissolve the yeast in the wet ingredients and then add the rest of the ingredients. Mix everything well for 10 minutes on the machine. If you don't have a mixer, you can stir it by hand in a large bowl with a wooden spoon/spatula. Then pour the dough directly into a 3-liter bread pan. After the dough is in the bread pan, smooth the surface with a wet spatula or fingers. If you like, you can sprinkle some seeds on top as decoration (I usually dont).

Cold Rising

Cover the bread pan with an 8L plastic bag and an elastic band, or use cling film. Place in the refrigerator for 12 - 24 hours.

If you want to bake the same day, you can use about 15 g of yeast and let the dough rise at room temperature for about 2 hours instead, but be careful not to let the dough rise too much as it happens much faster than in the refrigerator. I generally discourage this as it gives the seeds and kernels less time to absorb the water. Cold rising in the fridge is preferable.

Baking

Take the bread out of the refrigerator 1-3 hours before it is to be baked so it can come to room temperature and finish rising. Keep an eye on the dough and see how quickly it rises, so you can preheat the oven in good time. When the dough is ready, it should preferably go straight into the oven.

The dough is ready when there are 5-10 small pinhead-sized bubbles on the surface. This is not always visible as it depends a bit on the flour, but otherwise, 2 hours is usually enough. Generally don't let it stay for more than 2 hours, especially if you live in a hot climate.

Preheat the oven to 180 degrees and put the bread in when it is ready. No fan. Place the bread on the very bottom rack, as low as possible. Bake the bread for about 1 hour 50 minutes or until the internal temperature of the bread is 96-98 degrees.

Take the bread out of the bread pan immediately after it has finished baking and let it cool on a rack

Remember that ovens can vary, so if the bread, feels a bit soft on the bottom side and slightly under baked, give it another 5-10 minutes in the oven but this time leave it out of the bread pan. If you feel like it takes significantly longer than 1 hour and 40-50 min to bake maybe your oven is a bit colder than mine so raise the temperature 5 degrees next time you bake.

Wait with slicing and plastic baging the bread until it is completely cooled. It can take several hours. You can put a thin tea towel over it while it cools on the rack if you want a softer crust or to protect it a bit while cooling over night.

Enjoy.

Tips

Mix the dough in the evening and put it in the refrigerator until the next day. Then you can take the bread out when you get home from work the next day and bake it durring the evening and have it cool down over night.

When the bread is completely cooled, it can be sliced with a sharp knife (not serrated) and put in a bag in the freezer. When you want to use the bread, the frozen slices can easily be separated with a knife blade and a little push. The slices are toasted in the toaster and eaten warm.

If the bread is sliced on a narrow cutting board, it is much easier to put in a bag as seen in the picture below.

 
 

 

I hope these type of requests are allowed here. Otherwise just let me know and I'll remove my post.

I'm soon moving to a new house and it has a little garden area of 5.5 m wide and 4.4m long. And surrounded by a tall hedge (that I don't want to remove)

At the moment, as you can see on the pictures below, it's all tiled. I initially intended to remove about a third of the tiles and make a mos, clover and wild flowers lawn that my cat and dog can use now and then. Then maybe make some tall planteres for wild herbs from stacking the removed bricks up in a square and adding some wood planks.

But now i got the idea of asking you guys if you have any better ideas for how to use this space for a little sanctuary for me and my pets. I'd love to see some inspiration, sketches or ideas from you on how i get more use out of this space. Maybe removing the tiles is not the best idea?

I live in Denmark so the climate is a bit mixed. I'm not a big gardener type of person so something simple that mostly takes care of itself is ideal. Lavenders, sage, oniongrass types of herbs and Viola tricolor and wild flowers for easy and pretty colors.

 

A few of you asked for how to do it so here's my guide. This method gives me perfect coffee every time, but your milage may vary so don’t be afraid to experiment.

Grind to filter coffe size or maybe a bit finer. Don’t go to espresso level or it’ll just clog the brewer and burn the coffee. It is generally not super sensitive to grind size so don’t worry too much. If in doubt go corser.

Always, always weigh the coffe! I found that they are actually quite sensitive to the amount of coffe you put in. Ever since a started weighing the beans I’ve never had any issues with it. If you cannot get a nice consistent flow through the entire brew and it begins to sputter too early you most likely filled it too much. So rather than fiddle with the grind size, you should instead fill it a little less next time. This is why you must weigh the beans. I use 12-13g for the 2 cup that you see here, and 28-30g for the 6 cup version. If I go outside that range it won’t brew nicely. It’s that sensitive! Grind size does very little to change this

Finally use hot water. This first of speed up the brew but also makes it easier to control the pressure inside. So pour hot/freshly boiled water in, assemble, and put on a low to medium heat with the lid open so you can see when the coffee comes. When the coffee starts to come through turn it down to low low heat to get a nice, slow and consistent flow. For the 2 cup version it’s about 15-30 seconds and for the big 6 cup version i think it’s about 40-90 seconds. I can’t remember exactly so don’t worry too much as long as it’s consistent and nice and slow.

Pour the coffee immediately. Otherwise it’ll slowly burn and turn bitter in the hot brewer. If you want to share the portion stir it a bit first since its much stronger at the bottom.

With this method i always get amazing coffee out of this little machine and i low it so much.

The milk i just heated with the Bialetti electric milk foamer but a little pot and a whisk would do the same. Don't heat the milk too much. It should only be around 65 degrees or something like that or it changes the taste. For UHT treated milk i guess this doesn't matter.

I hope this was helpful. So enjoy your coffee.

Additional debugging steps:

If you use a blade grinder: This is fine, and I’ve used one for years when I was a student and it worked just fine as well. You can grind pretty fine with that for the mokka pot. It's difficult to go too fine, but again, if on doubt go corser. Much more importantly is to avoid clumps. Blade grinders tends to make clumps so try to stir them out a bit with a needle/scewer or a very thin fork.

Clumps causes channeling and easily makes it sputter and all the water goes through too fast since it cannot build the pressure needed to make a consistent flow.

Clogging causes it to go really slow and sputter almost immediately and it seems like not all the water wants to go through. This is because it builds up too much heat and pressure so when the coffee passed through the coffee it's above 100C° so it instantly boils when it reaches the other side and gives a very harsh amd unpleasant taste.

Oh I forgot to add. FOR THE LOVE OF GOD CLEAN YOU MOKKA POT WITH SOAP! Don't be fooled by what others are saying. It's not building up "flavour" it is literally old and rancid coffee "flavours" you are building up. So please please clean you pot with soap and a soft sponge every single time.

 

Kumpir is a traditional Turkish streetfood wich is based on a baked potato with cheese and toppings. In this case, the inside of the potato is mixed and mashed heavily with Gouda cheese and topped with olives, sweet corn, roasted sausage pieces, and salty pickles. Dressed with ketchup and mayo. Many different types of toppings exists, so very easy to make as you like.
