Hey @Vineeth Kumar V , got any advice on wall thickness?

I highly recommend this thread with nearly every kind of speaker configuration designed and tested in DIY. The last project completed was a 3D printed Bliesma/Purifi design. Apparently it’s good enough. There’s plenty of conjecture and debate in the thread, but it’s worth a read for the...

There’s a great video with their analysis of the different surrounds moving in a simulation which shows how it remains constant even while under rapid movement and extreme distances. I just don’t have the time to link it right now. Besides the patentable details, Purifi puts everything about...

Purifi is happy to explain how their surround works. It’s about keeping all of their T/S parameters the same regardless of excursion. It’s under Sd modulation. https://purifi-audio.com/blog/tech-notes-1/some-speaker-problems-that-needed-solving-1

You know that pour overs are considered the most sophisticated and simple way to brew coffee in the specialty world, right? :p

That's a really nice glass, damn.

Just replaced all of the gaskets in my gaggia for... $10 and 1hr. Love autos.

This, please.

The K6 is the only manual grinder that looks like it can take the attachment. I have broken a Hario Slim this way.

I just got a Kingrinder K6 for decaf and single dose grinding/travel, it cuts so clean and smooth. Easily the best entry grinder on the market at $100 or less, and is good enough to be endgame at the same time.

Just to get started.

Spring or Push? I hear really good things about Profitecs.

A Lelit is one of my dream machines. No practical experience, but in theory it should be able to make every recipe imaginable. The only counterpoint would be that a used Decent is $3000, so it depends on your location and retailer. A Lelit Bianca has always seemed much more desirable than a...
