@weftyarn on that note, do you do anything special to clean yours? I just brush mine out on the bottom a little after each use, nothing fussy. Wondering if I should be doing anything more.
Nothing special really. Only about twice a year I open it up completely to take the burrs out and clean them with a brush. That’s it basically.

Recently learned about stroopwafels

I have been enjoying some nice roasted offerings from Reframe Roasters (Penang Island, Malaysia).
One of my work colleagues brings Reframe coffee with him to work.
I have been trying to find something suitable to bring with me from the U.K.
Settled on a nice all round Mexican bean roasted by Square Mile Roasters called Vocho Rojo.Square Mile Roasters were set up with help from James Hoffman of You Tube coffee review fame.

Have also been incredibly humbled this current offshore hitch. It is my last hitch in Dubai before heading back to work in Norway.
My coffee mentor and work colleague purchased a leaving gift for me so I can continue my coffee pursuits at work in Norway.
I am now the proud owner of Black Mirror Nano scales and the Kinu M47 hand grinder. Both quality items. The hand grinder is a lovely thing to use, super smooth bearings and very neat grind adjustment, practically step less.
-
Kinu? Thats a good friend!
-
@steelworker Completely agree, I am one lucky co-worker. It will be sad to leave this particular job and colleague. The coffee chat in the evenings at shift change have been memorable, makes the month away from home a bit easier.
I am looking forward to getting back to Norway. Their coffee is not the best but their work schedules are the best, more time at home away from work has to be good. At least now I have my portable coffee set up sorted with the scales, Kinu and Aeropress.

One of my favorite classic chocolatey beans.
And the best Franzbrötchen in town. You know they’re good when the paper bag looks like that -

@weftyarn and a trip to statement while you're round the corner?
Almost almost. They recently opened up two more shops in Schwabing which means picking up beans just got way less dangerous hehe.
-
@Tago-Mago oh yes, absolutely. not only Statement and Man vs Machine, but so many other dangerous stuff… Have you had a look into Szenedrinks a few doors from statement? Excellent selection of drinkable stuff.
Oh and here’s my Sunday contribution to this thread:
