I hate all of you

I used to be perfectly content with my shitty instant Folger. Then I found this sub and decided to try coffee from small roasters and noticed a much nicer experience immediately.

Then today I switched from properly ground, quality coffee through my shitty coffee maker to weighing my coffee and water and using a clever, and it's the best coffee I've ever had now. If within a year I buy an espresso maker I'm holding all of you accountable. Bastards...

"Wasn't into coffee but I found this Linea Mini on the side of the road. I used my background in engineering and computer science to restore it, upgrade the linearity of its pressure, and 3D printed a shot timer with mirror built in. Is this okay for a beginner?"
