Coffee gadgets - It's always great to learn about new gadgets. Please share your favorite hardware or full setups. It might inspire newcomers to experiment!

Local businesses - Please promote your local businesses. If you are not the owner of the business you are promoting, kindly ask the owner if it's okay. It would be great if the business has a physical store to include an exterior or interior shot.

Spoiler, its RDT

In case people do nto know what RDT is, which they really should if they have been into coffee for a little while as it makes a big difference:

RDT is Ross Droplet Technique, which is very much adding water to beans. Named after David Ross who came up with it back in 2005

No mate, the issue is someone having to use ChatGPT to try and figure out what you were talking about, simply because you were too lazy to type a phrase, causing this entire comment chain here.

If you're communicating with other people, it's frankly a tad rude to assume that everyone should spend some of their time working out what you're talking about, rather than taking two seconds yourself to type clearly

This might sound harsh, but it's good advice for the world in general, especially in a professional environment

What utter garbage.

Any community particularly one for nerdy hobbies has jargon as part of it's discussion and doesn't have explanations littered in every instance jargon is mentioned. Part of joining in that community is asking or finding out what the jargon means. Asking like an entitled ass over not understanding jargon in a hobby you aren't familiar with shows what sort of person you are.

Again,, I answered the question when asked.
