I got a used hdd to store some files i don't use alot and it's showing 2 weak sectors on hdd sentinal. Are these sectors about to go bad or is it a glitch because I am not seeing any issues with my hdd (stored about 150gb on it and ran witcher 3 and it worked perfectly).
I’ve had a V60 setup for a few years now and I’m reasonably happy with my pour-over routine but summer here in East Tennessee makes hot coffee a harder sell from about June onward so I’ve been making cold brew in a mason jar. Just coarse grind, cold water, 18 hours in the fridge, strain and done. It works but Dana tried it last week and called it thin and I think she’s right.
There’s a coffee shop near us that does nitro on draft and the texture is noticeably different, almost creamy, which I can’t replicate at home. I’ve been trying to understand whether that difference comes from the nitrogen itself, the pressurized serving or something about how the concentrate is made before it even gets to that stage.
I started looking at home nitro cold brew coffee maker options out of curiosity. The range goes from fairly affordable countertop systems all the way up to what Alibaba has listed for commercial grade equipment, and I can’t tell from specs alone what’s actually driving the texture difference.
Is it worth trying to replicate at home or is the nitro effect something that really needs proper pressure equipment to work? I’m not trying to build a full setup, just trying to understand the mechanism before I spend anything. Any help would be very appreciated. Thank you.
For me it's las venturas, the city feels very lifeless, the atmosphere is very hollow and the roads are also designed poorly.
