I make a 12 minute steep with 15g/300g coffee:water ratio. A bit coarser grind than what I’d use for pour over. I (accidentally) found out I like it the most.

I have a 1L french press jug that I fill with 80g of coffee, coarse grind (34 on 1zpreszo JX) and top with cold water making sure all the grounds are wet and stirring lightly to make sure they’re all wet. I leave it in the fridge for 12-18 hours and filter through the mesh. I dillute with hot water or just microwave it after dillution if I’m too lazy to boil (blasphemy I know). I sometimes mix it with tonic water or ice and drink chilled.

Make sure to pop it in the fridge. Room temperature extracts the acids somewhat which isn’t to my preference.

Cold brew, followed by French press. With cold brew you want a coarse grind but it doesn’t really matter THAT much compared to pour over. You just dillute to taste. I do it in a french press so it’s easily filtered. The french press is also forgiving. I’ve oversteeped by 5 minutes and the coffee is still drinkable. Lately I’ve been mostly drinking supermarket generic Arabica bean brews since I’m on a tight budget but I wouldn’t do cold brew with specialty coffee anyway!

This is exactly what I’m doing right now. I play a game that I can play for 2 hours daily max and it’s fine, I can do without it easily. I also fell into the OW2 trap and I became unbearable to the people around me.

I feel like I didn’t word myself properly because I haven’t played WoW or any of the “problematic” games for 6 months now. I managed to keep myself occupied with cross stitching and books. It’s when I see footage/hear music that I get these feelings of wanting to play again.

I actually agree with you but the mental health communities on Lemmy haven’t caught up yet, and I figured one could find more people here that could relate.

Not sure if related but my nsfw account is unusable on jerboa. My subscribed feed is empty as if I’m logged out and I appear as anonymous on the account selection but my all feed is from lemmynsfw. Account settings do nothing because I’m effectively logged out as soon as I log in. Everything is normal on web.

Just tried Lucas Zahradnin’s recipe from 2015 and it worked so well with the Burundi light roast I had at home. He recommends Kenya but any high density washed coffee works well:

• Inverted method

• 20g finely ground, 5 clicks on the porlex mini… I did it with 8 by mistake but it turned out delicious, I just like having some acidity in my mug.

• 230ml of water at 80°C. I make my own barista water since the one from the tap is liquid limestone here Recipe for the water.

• Rinse filter and preheat. I do it over running boiler water from the tap.

• Add the coffee to the chamber.

• Pour 60ml of water.

• Wiggle the AeroPress for 15 seconds to mix the water and grounds.

• Pour another 170ml of water.

• Fasten the filter cap, flip, press for 30 seconds.
