I have the same one and can attest to its greatness.

I spent a lot of time on the niche tech/maker/cooking subs. Seems a lot of the fediverse did as well, because the ones I've found here are almost as active!

I got them from homeroastcoffee.com he hasn't had them since. They don't seem to be exported from Puerto Rico all that often, and it was definitely before Hurricane Maria.

Supporting the HA Devs is the only reason I didn't set up a reverse proxy myself.

I'm chalking it up to various different Lemmy app growing pains? I've settled on Liftoff, and it gets random weird 404 errors.

I started with Plex, but I would say it wasn't until I spun up Nextcloud and got it running that I really would say my life changed. My entire family now has Nextcloud accounts, a family calendar, instant upload of pictures from my phone, all my recipes, and I even have OnlyOffice document server running for editing documents in Nextcloud.

I primarily use my super automatic. I won't lie, my palette isn't developed enough to dial in beans based on origin.

I think once people start to figure out just HOW the Fediverse works, they'll start spreading out. I joined beehaw originally, then they defedereated from lemmy.world, which is where most of the communities were that I had subscribed to. That's why I joined lemmy.world...

I keep thinking about a drum roaster, but am of the mind "if it ain't broke..." My superautomatic holds about 10 oz of beans, so 8 oz at a time is perfect. I haven't tried anything from Rwanda yet, but I haven't really found an African coffee that I truly like yet. On this journey, I've found out that my favorites regions are Nepal, Haiti, and Yemen. Unfortunately, I think other people are finding those less-than-common beans, because their price has been rising as of late. Used to be I could get Haiti for around $10/pound, now it's $20-ish.

Oh, and forgot to mention - green beans also last significantly longer. 8-12 months versus 1-2 months for roasted. I can buy in bulk, save money, and have fresh roasted for the week!

There's a lot of benefits, at least for me. I got into home roasting because I wanted Jamaican Blue Mountain (after a friend had gifted me some). Found out how much it cost, then as I went down the rabbit hole, I found out that I could get green beans for significantly cheaper than roasted.

Now, I find that I enjoy trying all different kinds of single-origin that I've never heard of/seen from bigger roasters. I've had coffee from Nepal, Puerto Rico, Yemen, Java, Sulawesi, and countless other farms around the world.

Cost is also a factor. I can get a pound of Jamaican Blue Mountain for as little as $20, whereas roasted (depending on estate) can be $40-$80.

It can be a pain in the ass, if I realize I'm out of roasted beans and want a cup of coffee. It takes a good 30 minutes to roast and cool, but in the end, trying something new is worth it!

Same here. Found a local roaster that I really liked, so I was buying their roasted beans for a while, then decided to roast some Nepalese beans (hadn't had them in a while, and it is my favorite cup). Back in to it now for a least the next 5 pounds of beans!
