I do a 1:16.667 ratio of coffee to water. That would be 30g coffee in 500g water. Pre rinse the filter. Then I add enough boiling water to bloom the coffee. After about a minute I start adding more water. Just enough to keep the grounds below liquid level. I swirl clockwise and then counter clockwise after each pour.

That’s it. Keep pouring until target amount of water is reached.

A link to Reddit to a link to unverified “documents” is not news. It’s gossip at best.

News should be verifiable and fact checked. Not some random post in a subreddit.

Agree, OPs experience sucks and it’s good perspective but YSK should be focused on facts.

Moussaka.

You have to peel, slice, salt, and drain eggplant. Then cook it.

You have to peel, parboil, and slice potatoes.

Optionally also peel, slice, salt, drain, and cook zucchini.

You have to make your meat sauce. Make bechemel.

And then layer it all together and bake it.

It’s MANY hours.

What is it you’re looking to get from the lethicin? What do you think is missing from just straight canola? What problems are you having? I think this would help with alternative suggestions.

I have a dishwand that just stays out all the time, so I’d hit it with that. Almost everything either goes in the dishwasher or gets hit with the dishwand. If I cut up something like apples or cucumber I may just give the knife a rinse before it goes back into the block

Do you roast there or move it outside when you want to roast? The smoke seems like you wouldn’t want it in a finished space without some serious ventilation.

Some People may consider this sacrilege, but I keep a small jug in my fridge that I pour any extra coffee in. In brewing this would be the solvers method :). 1/4 cup left? It goes in the jug.

Then I use this to make iced coffee.

If I’m completely empty, I’ll brew a pot of French press, and then pour it in the jug to restock.

There are no cake days, this isn’t Reddit. Don’t try to make it Reddit. Let it be it’s own thing.

This is some very ironic, animal farm energy here. The government has forgotten who gave them their power.

I’m coming here from kbin and see the link fine

I think an equal component to number of days you can go, is how long you can go each day.

That being said, I’d recommend the StrongLifts 5x5 program to begin with. It’s an A/B program, meaning in just two workouts you get a total body workout. There’s no reason you can’t use it 5 times a week. Week 1 would look like A/B/A/B/A and then Week 2 would be B/A/B/A/B and so fourth. I’d put the rest days after every B exercise.

The downside of this is StrongLifts does squats every day, so you’d be doing squats two days in a row.

It’s still a great beginner program. You may chose to only lift 3-4 times a week and throw in some very good cardio on additional days.

This program will probably take 1:15 the first few times you do it, but you should be able to get it down to an hour or less for each workout.

I use StrongLifts as a beginning program but also modified it over time. Now I’ve moved to PPL which is technically a 6-day a week program but you can just do 5 days a week and keep up the rotation the next week. It’s a longer workout. I’m lifting for at least 1:30, but usually 1:45 each time. It’s a lot more volume but the gains are large. I would start with PPL because it’s lot to jump into as a beginner.

I love the full body benefits of squats but I find my knees are liking them less and less these days.

I’m currently working a modified PPL, so a heavy off day.

LEGS

2x5, 1x5+ squat

3x8-12 Romanian Deadlift

3x8-12 leg press

3x8-12 leg curls

3x8-12 leg extensions

5x8-12 calf raises

I pretty much hate squats while I’m doing them. I think it’s cause they make my knees angry.

Is there something knee friendly I can replace squats with or alternate in occasionally?
