In response to this post@mattblaze there is still a tower with those horn antennas off highway 11 in northern Ontario. There used to be a set where I grew up, but now it's just a massive tower with a few tiny cell antennas on it. Fiber went through in 1990 and we all got touch tone.

Used the "inverted aeropress / Clover" technique for the first time this morning.
I have a metal screen, it came with an instruction card that calls for 22g of grounds...I did 18g and it still seems like too much.
Didn't seem as unsafe as an inverted aeropress full of boiled water might. No burns!
#coffee is pretty tasty, not sure I can tell the difference compared to using the aeropress normally.
@johnefrancis I honestly can’t remember what the normal method is! Glad the inverted method worked for you. I agree that the difference is probably minimal unless you’re using exceptional beans and water; the method was developed for barista competitions.
22g is definitely way too much.

In response to this post@Gargron I've been here full time since 2022, and I'm pretty happy with it and where it's going. Thanks for your huge contribution, I'm optimistic it will turn out well.

@MostlyHarmless have you been draining it? You have to keep draining it or it starts to fill up after 25.

@Gargron there's the proverb about being in bed with an elephant. It doesn't work well since a Mastodon is a lot like an elephant. Anyway, fediverse integration with Meta and other large evil corporations is looking like a worse and worse idea. Meta is a very large elephant to sleep next to.
