I've seen Escaflowne so I know better than to trust something like that.

In other questionable email, I got spam from a psychic offering fate alteration services.

Someone pretending to be my mail admin at work just tried to phish me in Spanish. Of course, that's unlikely to succeed because I am my mail admin at work and I never send messages like that in any language.

What's wrong with the Argrathi? They have tech that lets them live decades in an artificial reality while their bodies only age a few hours and the best use they can come up with is SimJail?

In a situation like this, I like to go back to the lab roaster, try a different approach to roasting the coffee, and pull more cups in a narrower range. In this case, starting at a temperature slightly cooler than when I pulled cup 3 and ending at a temperature slightly hotter than I pulled cup 8.

On the light roast, something around cup 3 has a wonderful aroma, but the citric qualities lack flavor intensity. Cup 6 is nice as a medium roast with a medium body, smooth mouthfeel, and a mild honeydew melon flavor. At cup 8, smoky aromatics add complexity to the cup without fully masking the underlying sweetness. It's a nice presentation of something on the lighter side of a dark roast.

The competition coffee is very obviously a high quality coffee with a lot of potential for different flavor expressions, but I think a different roast profile would give me better results.

@debugninja@banana.dog I recognize that I'm the only active user on my server and have accepted that anything I post might be ephemeral. You can guess the appropriate backup procedure from that.

I think I want to do a video on coffee cupping forms. I have a bunch of different ones that nobody uses anymore and am old enough to remember a lot of the history of why the forms changed and some approaches that never gained traction. I have other projects that need to get finished first, but I think I could make that video both entertaining and educational.

Cracked open a box of my competition coffee today. Since the competition got cancelled I'll just sell the coffee instead. Can't taste that until tomorrow, but it smells nice.

I suspect it's Apple since I never have that problem in KMail on Linux.

Don't know if it's the sender or just Apple's Mail.app but I needed to do the whole copy base64 text into a file and command line decode into a PDF thing again today. :cirnoStare:
