PERPETUA! I just NOW heard the name of the Rialis season! Aaaaaaaa!

[@calvindogwhistle-coqui3673]

Perpetua isn't the name of the Realis season it's the name of the next main feed season! It will be played in the system Fabula Ultima. I think the Realis season is just called Realis (or if its going to be called something else they haven't said)

perpetua?

Gaming!❤

I still can't believe they named it Kin Grinder

Oh yea, 1.0 gram scales are a trap. It's not that important to use 0.1 gram precision on a day to day basis, the real problem is rounding. On any digital measuring device, you really want to have one, or sometimes half a digit more precision than you need. With a 1.0 gram scale, say 18 grams, is anywhere from 17.5 to 18.4 grams, and that's a big deal, where with 0.1 gram precision you can make the readout say 17.9, and know that it's actually 17.85 to 17.94, and probably what you care about is landing in the range of 17.8 to 18.2. Now there's a trick, you're not supposed to ever try to read more precision from a measuring device than it's built for, it's very bad practice, but, if you get to 17 and very carefully tip it over to 18, now you know you're at about 17.6, just above the rounding line, just adjust your water target to match. btw, I got a Fellow Opus, adjusting it has not at any point made sense, I feel like it's lying to me about something, I feel like maybe the removable burr isn't seating correctly no matter how much I clean it, but also it seems like the grind size scale is just wrong. I'm not getting better at making coffee because I'm emotionally defeated by the Opus; I don't have the energy or the bean budget to spend four hours making coffee trying to find even one reasonable grind size that's edible. I'm doing v60 pour-overs for now and I've found if I set it way too high, I can add enough creamer that it doesn't strip my mouth of all it's oils. (medium roasts from a local roaster that I know is doing a good job)

could very well be an alignment issue or worse. i've heard really nice things about the opus but also heard some QC issues as well. maybe look into burr shimming? or maybe contact fellow. definitely worth trying to recoup some of that money and put it towards something that doesnt drive you mad if you can. fwiw even people who like the opus i've heard complain about the grind size adjustment. i dont really even understand how to use the inner micro adjustment thing on the blue ring.

​@@FriendsattheTable The blue microadjustment is simple, every explanation I've seen of it is insane. This gets out of hand quickly if you try to use the numbers printed on the machine because each number is on the 5th step, number, step, step, step, number. Each step is supposedly 50 microns, I don't understand how to use microns so let's stick with them. Set the big adjuster to 7, that's 1,400μm(?). One big step up is 1,450μm. one small step is 1433.33~μm. One big step and one small step is then 1,483.33μm, and one big step minus one small step is 1,416.66~μm. By working with two different increment systems you get a bunch of extra precision, instead of 50μm or 33μm, the maximum precision is 17μm. Generally speaking though I'm just not at that level, I'm struggling to get roughly a good grind size, I really don't think the target window for decent should be less than two big steps wide, but all the guidance I see says it should be numbers below where I'm at.

i'll say that when i make coffee on my conical hand grinder grinder, which has a resolution of about 12 microns per click, i usually adjust by 3-4 clicks. when you're doing pourover and it goes wrong, what are the signs, what's wrong about it?
