Let's make it a poll. What formats should I publish an ebook on coffee roasting in?

I'm thinking of slamming out a small ebook (heavily based on articles, blog posts, and other things that I've already written) to use as a promotional piece for the larger roasting book I'm working on, make available for people taking classes from me, and maybe also make available in exchange for money. Right now I'm thinking that I want to make that available in PDF and EPUB, but are there other formats that people might be interested in?

Does anybody have a series of books on tape or a podcast or a video series where it's just them reading terms of service or end user license agreements? I feel like that needs to be a thing.

Shelf elves are false idols created because it's no longer fashionable for the church to tell everybody that they're all sinners who deserve to burn in hell and all the horrors that await them there if they don't submit to some authority send toot.

Tail accessories should be normalized. With the right tail you're never without an emergency napping pillow.

In an apparent aim to put as many X's as possible in the name of their new console, Microsoft really dropped the ball by not calling it the XXXBox.

3D printer is capable of printing uselessly thin decorative cups. Let's see if I can scale that up, thicken it out, and get something that an hold a pair of scissors and some pens/markers.

Sometimes the cat questions my life choices. It's pretty much always the same question. "What are you doing and why isn't it petting the cat?"

Why are the owls wearing hats? I have no idea. Next up, figuring out how to print something other than the owls the machine came with, but it's late so that will have to wait for another day.

I seem to have acquired a 3D printer. Making a pair of red test owls now.

Put Sumatra back on the coffee list on the shop's web site. We weren't out of that long enough and the flavor of the new lot isn't different enough that I'm making a mention of it on the main page. It's just available to buy through the site again. For anybody concerned about going there and risk scabbing on the whole YouTube thing going on right now, video embeds on that site all come from my PeerTube server and nothing auto-plays. https://wilsonscoffee.com/

So apparently if a server running Mastodon runs out of disk space it just spits 500 errors everywhere. Problem solved, sorry for any inconvenience.
