coffee

I'm old enough to remember instant coffee was the norm.  Stores were full of top shelf instant coffee with bottom shelf bricks of vacuum packed ground coffee that could have spent years in warehouses and grocery store back rooms until there was room on the shelf.  

Product placement is a big deal in retail.  The best sellers are at eye level and the bottom half is for the cheap stuff.  This store has their best coffee at eye level and the vacuum packed crap well below it.  Pay attention next time you go to the liquor store.

These pictures are from the 1986 movie, Manhunter.  Granted, this store was in Florida but it's a typical coffee isle across America at that time.  



A few things about coffee.  

1. Coffee begins to degrade two weeks after roasting.  

2.  Coffee hits it's peak flavor three days after roasting.

3. Mr. Coffee type coffee makers make a shitty cup of coffee.

4. There are thousands of different types of coffees to choose from.


My point is, anyone can overcome the banality of the store bought stuff and experience coffee the way it was meant to be.  That is, roast and grind your own from green, unroasted beans from some of the best coffee regions in the world at a price much lower than the outdated stuff on your grocer's shelf.

When I first got into roasting, I had no intentions on spending hundreds of dollars on a roaster just to make coffee.  I did it the cheap way with a 9 dollar pop corn popper and a hurricane lamp chimney.  

There's two methods of roasting coffee.  Fast and slow.  Fast roasting takes 90 seconds and slow roasting takes 15 to 20 minutes.  Fast roasting seems to bring out the flavors and nuance that slow roasting destroys.  This unit will produce a medium roast in 6 minutes, which makes it damn near perfect for my purposes.   

So much for the 20 dollar investment.  What about the green beans?  Tons of places online that sell green beans for a couple bucks a lb to $40 a lb for Jamaican Blue Mountain (my personal favorite) and everything in between.  It's like buying a car.  A Ferrari would be great but you don't have to settle for a used Yugo, either.  You can start with Guatemala, or any other central american country, and work your way down.  Look into Coffee Bean Corral.  They usually have bargains.  I've been buying beans direct from Kafetos in Guatemala for about $35 for 5 lbs.  Not bad.  Berman is another place that has tons of exotic coffees from all over the world with fast delivery.  It's easy to amass a collection of boxes full of different coffees, just to see what they taste like.  It's a free market with lots of competition so the prices are stable with lots of good sales to make room for new stock.  I'm not concerned with shelf life at all.  I still have some of the first beans I bought years ago and they roast up and taste just as good as the day I got them.  And they sat in an unheated garage all this time, in a paper bag.

Roasting is like making pop corn only messier.  When coffee is roasted it blows off chaff and fills the area with lots of floating coffee skin.  Best done outside.  Ask me how I know.  The chimney has a duel purpose.  To let the chaff out and the beans in.  This unit has no start button so it's plug n play.  Best use gloves so you don't burn your hands on the hot, glass chimney.  And that's pretty much it.  

Before I got semi-serious about roasting, I used to fire it up and let it run until the beans were black and oily.  In other words, burnt.  Too much heat kills the flavor.  Instead, listen for first crack.  It comes a couple minutes after startup and happens when the beans release moisture.  Second crack is when they release their oil, stripping all the good flavors, like burning toast.  

I prefer to roast 45 seconds after first crack is done.  A nice roast with all the good flavors.  Of course, the grind and brewing method could make or break it.  A conventional coffee maker won't pick up the subtle notes and tones that lingers under the surface.  A vacuum system will make the best coffee but the cheapest one I could find was over $80.  Best to invest $20 on a french press.  

Just for example, I was drinking Marsellesa coffee from a Mr Coffee type maker and it was good.  I tried some in a french press and I was shocked this very same coffee had floral notes and deliciousness the Mr Coffee destroyed.  Live and learn.

Here's my $20 french press with some Guatemala.  Yummy.

When I learned there was no such thing as an espresso bean I was shocked.  Espresso is the method of making espresso, not a type of bean.  The beans are usually house blends of at least three different beans.  The stuff you buy at the store are usually leftover beans roasted black for espresso.  Maybe this is why most espressos taste the same. 

This got me thinking of blending specific coffees to make my own espresso.  Here's my first espresso blend.

Brazilian 50%

Colombian 25%

Guatemalan 25%

Roasted together at medium, about a minute after first crack. 

It was ok.  I suspect my espresso maker wasn't up to par.

I knew some Cubans who made espresso by filling a sock with a pound of grounds and soaking it in a bucket of hot water and letting it steep.  That stuff was rocket fuel.  



I should point out I was out of the picture for a few years.  Not that I was sick or spent any time in the hospital or became a vaxx casualty.  I've been an anti-vaxxer since before the Gardasil fiasco.  This covid bullshit was even worse and I felt it necessary to immerse myself into research and compound my own medicines, since I refuse to see doctors or visit hospitals.  I came up with some interesting natural cures as a result.  The medical community has been weaponized as well as every other construct in life.  And it's weaponized against us.  

We all lost friends and relatives during this thing we're experiencing through death, cancellation, or drifting apart.  No one's been spared that and it's turned the world upside down.  We all know this was no accident, even those with koolaide hair and those responsible will pay.

There's so much that happened the last few years that it would be impossible to cover a fraction of it in a single post.  I'll try to put some puzzle pieces together in the future.  Hang in there.

Ok.  A post about coffee after a few years of total absence is like ignoring the most disastrous period in history but I have my reasons.  I choose not to dwell on the negative today and offer a cup of coffee instead.  

We're all in this together and if we stick together, even the far left, we can beat this.  

It's simple.  Don't comply.  Ignore any and all mandates.  Don't believe a word they say.  Find other ways to get the truth and get the truth out.          

Now, get out there and brew some coffee.

debunking the narrative

The Covid Family X experiment is done.  Everyone survived with some symptoms to nothing at all.  Of course, the whole family was scared shitless, due to the insane amount of broadcasted propaganda they all had to endure.

This is the way it's supposed to be.  It takes about two weeks for a virus to cover the Earth and the vast majority never knew they even had it.  Some were sick for a few days to a few weeks but they're all the better for it.  We are designed to absorb viruses that our bodies use to build up our immune system.  It's as simple as that.

Unless your health is severely compromised or you have underlying respiratory problems, wearing masks and social distancing is the very worst thing you could do.  It keeps us from developing our own immune systems to fight off infection.  We survived 100,000 years instinctively doing just that.  This is the first time in history healthy people were coerced by our governments into doing the opposite of what nature intended... Cowering in our homes wearing masks with non-stop programming by the legacy media.

If you think your immune system isn't strong enough or you're fearful of exposing yourself to a faux pandemic, you can build up your immune system with vitamins D,C, and zinc.  Get outside and walk in the sun.  Stop being a victim.

Take some time and pay attention to what this woman says.  Then ask yourself why the brightest medical minds in government want to ruin the economy and put your life at risk.

corona family x 2

It's been like three weeks since I've been monitoring corona family x.  That poor family, locked away like a crazy uncle in the attic.  Three generations sealed in a house filled with corona virus fumes.  Nothing to eat but leftovers and pantry treats and the occasional goodies left on the doorstep by neighborhood good Samaritans.  Lepers in their own neighborhoods.  Diseased freaks re-inhaling death from China, locked away in home, with blinds closed and TV on, watching and waiting for the newest news about their horrid condition and death.  Oh, the humanity!

Only this house of multi-generational coronial infected victims seem like normal American shut-ins.  No symptoms outside of overweight and lethargy.  Certainly not enough to go to the hospital and have a tube shoved down their esophagus. 

I suspect the government is feeding us bullshit.

corona family x

Every morning I turn on the radio to NPR for my daily dose of propaganda.  For awhile now, there doesn't seem to be any news outside of corona.  All they do is talk about it, interview "experts" to fire up the masses with panic and fear porn and how it's Trump's fault.  Yesterday they had a doctor on who said he took Hydroxychloroquine for his corona virus and didn't feel a thing, like it was just as good as nothing.  I'm thinking, "You're not dead, ya stupid bastard."  Yeah, this is my daily routine.  Judge me.

I realize no one really knows anything so I decided to conduct a study.

I found a family who tested positive for the virus.  Three generations in one house and all but one contracted it.  They watch TV and play games on their phones, have various ranges of health issues, and three generations so I can study the effects age has on this condition.  At this time, the whole house in on lock-down.

Ok, on the surface this sounds like a cold thing to do, secretly experiment on a bunch of people unfortunate enough to catch this virus.  If I could help I would, but since I can't, the best I could do is pay attention from a distance, take notes, and get the answers I'm looking for.  I'll get updates on their conditions from others they know to keep myself out of the picture.  I'll call them FAMILY X. 

Of course, they have no idea I'm doing this and I intend to keep it that way.   Considering the total bull shit that's flying about COVID-19, I'm sure I'll learn far more about this virus than what NPR decides to tell me.

I'll keep ya posted.

hand sanitizer

Since there's no hand sanitizer to be found, I thought I'd be resourceful and make my own.

This new and improved hand sanitizer came out at 130 proof.

Hell, this is better than the Dollar Store stuff.

toilet paper

Last night the local supermarket put up a wall of toilet paper.
Today it's gone.
There's a sign saying another toilet paper truck will be in tomorrow.

What does it say about a society that obsesses over toilet paper?

I can make a single roll last a week and that's if I eat nothing but apples and oil.

The other day I saw a guy pushing a shopping cart full of gallons of milk.  Nothing else.  Just milk.

I saw a lady pushing two shopping carts full of toilet paper.  Nothing else.  Just toilet paper.

Hand sanitizer, rubbing alcohol, and Clorox were gone in every store I went to.

Walmart had a plentiful supply of extra large eggs at $.78 for a dozen and a half.  They also had lots of butter and cheese.

BUT the priority is something to wipe your ass with.

Sometimes I despise the species.   

double field generator redesign #1

With all the wet weather and warm temps this winter, my cloudbuster lost it's footing and collapsed under it's own top-heavy weight.  A redesign is definitely in order.

I stripped it down to single parts and cemented a better footing but I can't use the same base due to the basic architecture.  Two large field generators pointing at a 40 degree angle would require a 20' counter balance.  So, I went to my junk pile.

Since aiming is no longer an issue, it's going to be a vertical stack with an orgone field generator opposite a top cement bubble.  I still have to work out the details but I got the base field generator assembly down.


I made this field generator years ago when I was cranking them out one after another, with the mofo being the last of this design.

It has an inner ring of extremely dense orgonite surrounding a mobius coil made from 100' of 18 gauge solid copper insulated wire.  The bulk of this unit is powdered iron oxide, aluminum and copper chips, and lots of sand, all held together with resin. 

At the base of the pipe is a medium density orgonite stopper used with a 2" stack.  After a few tests, using the orgonite stopper in this fashion puts out an impressive energy field.  Just what this project needs. 

The 4" PVC encloses the short stack and separates the stopper from the field generator.

A 1" copper pipe connects the two field generators.  I still have lots of cutting and shaping before the final assembly.  I'll post more when complete.

I just want to point out, as soon as I took this unit apart the sunshine and blue skies were replaced with overcast, cold, and semi-miserable weather.  Just a bunch of shitty days in a row.  Since I first built the double field generator in the original configuration before I took it apart, the weather was great.  From July to March the weather was pretty much spectacular.



Since this unit was designed for great weather, I'm betting there will be an improvement after I fire this up for the first time.

I guess we'll see.

tv cops

The other morning, I found myself in a clinic waiting room with the TV on some kind of cop show.  Since I quit watching TV many years ago, I don't have a clue what the morning line up was but I question why a cop show would be on this early in the am.  I watched it anyway.

The first thing that happened was a bunch of cops broke down an apartment door with a battering ram and started roughing up the inhabitants.  The head cop went to one of the guys and as two other cops held him the cop punched him in the gut, real hard.  I figure that's a lawsuit right there and if I was him I'd be demanding my lawyer. 
The head cop then began his interrogation by yelling questions and slapping him around.  When he wasn't getting the answers he wanted the cop slammed the guys face on a hot burner on the stove.  As the guy was screaming in agony I thought to myself, that's gonna leave a mark.  After a few seconds he pulled the guy off the burner by the hair and there was a distinct circular mark from a 1500w burner on the guys face.

All the while this was going on, all I could think was this cop has got to lose his badge over this.  Hell, after my lawyer gets through with him he'll be spending time in an ass pounding prison while all his savings go to me and my lawyer.

Commercial... Yeah, this is TV.  No pause button or fast forward.

Back to the cop shop. 

I was expecting the police commissioner, or police captain, or desk sergeant, or someone in authority to grill this cop about his over-the-top handling of a suspect.  As far as I could tell, there was no search warrant, no knock on the door, no reading of his rights.  Just crash, smash and totally disfigure a guy.

Apparently, while they were there drinking shitty coffee and eating day old donuts, they got another tip about someone else so off they go to another place. 

Again, they don't knock.  They destroy the door, run inside and find some guys on the sofa watching TV, to which they point their guns and yell at them to stay where they were.  The head cop interrogates one of the guys and, again, didn't get his answers fast enough so he shoots him in the leg.

WHAT!  You gotta be shitting me.  This cop shoots a guy in the leg and earlier that day he permanently deforms another guys face on a hot stove and I'm led to believe this is routine cop stuff?  Ok, there's two guys this cop seriously fucked up in one day.  There's four more working days in the week.  Assuming this cop gets two weeks vacation, I figure that's about 400 people a year this guy disfigures.  Why don't some of these crippled, deformed suspects complain about this psycho's interrogation techniques?  Assuming these injured suspects will end up in a hospital, wouldn't the hospital staff be a little concerned about this psychotic, serial killer, police department that fills their emergency room, every day, with victims that were obviously tortured, most heinously?  In one day a guy was shot in the leg at close range and another had his face burned off on a hot stove.  What's next?  Head in a vice?  Balls crushed with a hammer?  Front teeth broken backwards with a pliers?  Cutting off a toe with wire cutters?

Keep in mind, this is on TV in a medical facility.

.

If you didn't know any better or were a bit stupid, you might think this is the way all cops are.  Maybe this is why some people hate cops.  Maybe the question is, who watches this kind of TV during weekdays?

Things are beginning to make sense.

7g bubble

It's been short of a year and a half since I moved from resin-based field generators to bubble technology.  What started out as a study turned into a passion.

I built another one yesterday.  It took two months of designing and an hour or so of assembly but the effort was worth it.

 This unit is basically five layers.  The first layer consists of 2/3 mortar and 1/3 black iron oxide, making it an extremely dense base.  The next layer was mortar with a few handfuls of key dust.  Larger particles making it less dense than the first.  The next two layers were progressively less dense with aluminum chips with a final, neutral, layer of plaster.  The same cascading densities apply when constructing resin based orgonite.

But it's the goodies inside that makes the difference.  In the base layer I put a mirror with four neodymium magnets on the perimeter with a crystal array surrounded by citrine, shungite, and amethyst.  Directly over that is a succor punch with four magnets corresponding to the mirror magnets.  The rest of the goodies like DE, colloidal silver, ormus, rubicon, lemongrass, and tonka beans were placed at or near the succor punch.  The bubble is charged with a violet ray wand (VRW), which is basically a mini tesla coil, by two internal copper mesh pads at opposite ends of the unit.  The water used to mix the mortar/metal was run through a magnetic vortex.




I also included a sample from the previous bubble, which has the essence of all seven generations.

The most interesting part of this unit is the shekina crystal I mentioned in a previous post.  This item was placed directly over the succor punch in the fourth layer.  It not only contains my own DNA but five years worth of psychic fermentation until the solution crystallized.  I can't imagine what effects this crystal will produce, but I'm keeping my eye on it.










 



Theoretically, the qualities of these items should be boosted by the succor punch, which should be insanely boosted by the surrounding bubble.  The combination of inferred light and the VRW already shows astounding power after only one day.  I have eight more days worth of charging before this project is complete and fully charged.

Using an inferred light and VRW, it takes nine days to charge one of these things.  It's been said in order for a bubble to become fully charged it has to reach a temperature of 180 degrees.  Summer or winter, it takes that long to reach that temp.  Interesting.

So, what can these things do?  For starters, wake up the world and turn 5G into a healthy, life-enhancing thing that will bring enlightenment to the darkest corners of civilization.  Got any other requests?

cheez-it vs cheese-nips

And old friend, who is now dead, told me there is a vast difference between Cheez-its and Cheese-Nips.

They look alike, have almost the same box, share the same location in any store, and share the same price, have nearly the same name, but they are night and day in quality.

I haven't had Cheese-nips for a long time and gave in to the temptation a week ago and got some.  So much heaven in one box, I consumed the whole thing.

A week later i found myself in the cracker isle looking for more but all I found was Cheez-its.  I mean, there was three shelves full of Cheez-its of all kinds of flavors and sizes and absolutely no Cheese-nips to be found anywhere.

I figure one of two things... They didn't carry them anymore.  They sold out and were waiting to re-stock.  Either way, my choice was Cheez-its or nothing.  I chose Cheez-its.

Ok... Cheeze-its lack flavor and don't have near enough salt.  It was like eating road kill instead of a steak.  I choked them down just to get rid of the box.

Today I opened a box of Cheese-nips.  I still had the memory of Cheez-its on my salivary glans as I took the first cracker between my teeth.

Night and day, baby.  Night and day.

lost shekina found

I was scrounging goodies for my next bubble project.  Things like a mobius cable, living water, diatomaceous earth ormus, magnets, and stuff like that.  It struck me I had a solution I made back in 2015 that's been sitting in the cabinet where I store my pilsner glasses, untouched since I made it.  I could use this for the base of the internal succor punch.  It really made the double mobius mexican hat kick ass.  It should work even better in a bubble.

About this solution... Five years ago, several of us in various parts of the world, were making these and comparing notes through email.  It was supposed to be a manifestation device and we were all eager to try it.  We were told this device was called shekina 

The process was a full pint of a vinegar/salt solution, two copper pipes set up in a colloidal silver fashion, and hooked up to a 9v lantern battery to create a colloidal copper from the vinegar/ salt solution.  You keep the process running until the solution turns green.  When that's done, you add male and female DNA.  Male and female DNA spin in opposite directions and putting them in a sterile solution will create a minute chaos field vortex that grows exponentially.  It's designed for long term use and the longer it sets, the stronger it gets until manifestation becomes easy.  At least, that was the theory.

Anyway... I got the jar with the solution and saw it was dried up.  I mean, this was a sealed mason jar and all that was left was some crap on the bottom.  Only this wasn't just crap.  It seems the whole solution crystallized into one big crystal with a green tint.  What you see here is small chip about an inch long.   

I'm not sure how it happened but it looks like I found the crystal for my bubble internal mobius.

avocado discovery

I've been eating avocados since I picked my first one in Puerto Rico decades ago.  Like many things in life, the first was the best and a fresh picked avocado is hard to beat.  After that, they've all been somewhat mediocre.  But I like em just the same.

My preferred method of consuming a ripe avocado is cutting it in half and eating it with a spoon.  Simple and easy.  That's the way I roll, baby.

The last time I got avocados, I picked out some fairly firm ones only to realize those things were far from ripe.  It took some effort just cutting it in half and I had to quarter it just to get the pit out.  This was inedible but instead of tossing it I saw an opportunity for experimentation.

I peeled and diced it and sauteed it in butter with a little salt.  After a few minutes it began to look like home fries.  Would you believe it even tasted like home fries!  I mean, damn good!

I've had ripe avocado lightly sauteed that tasted like warm avocado but only the very unripe fruit seems to take on the characteristics of potato when browned.  It makes sense that unripe fruit would have a lack of flavor and just a bit of cooking could resemble a potato taste.  In my opinion, potato is pretty much tasteless, compared to other produce, anyway.  

For anyone involved in a ketogenic lifestyle, this is a godsend.  After a few minutes search I couldn't find anything on the internet associating avocados with potatoes.  I can't be the only one who tried working with extremely unripe avocados.  There seems to be no mention of it anywhere.  Lots of recipes using potatoes and avocados but nothing about avocado as a potato substitute but it got me thinking of other ways to turn avocados into au gratin, mashed, or as a potato substitute for Hungarian goulash. 

Avocados could be the healthiest fruit out there.  Most of the calories in avocado come from fat. A whole avocado contains about 21 grams of fat, but mostly in the form of healthier monounsaturated omega-9 fatty acid containing oleic acid which is beneficial in reducing inflammation, cardiovascular health, and to some extent, dealing with cancer.

Avocados contain large proportions of fiber, which also helps in controlling blood sugar and lowering insulin levels.  The fiber also lowers the carbohydrate count making it a perfect keto food.

Avocado has been tested to be effective in controlling cholesterol.

In a ketogenic diet, your carb count should be 20 grams or less per day.  That's seven avocados or one medium potato.  Seven avocados also has the added benefit of supplying a days worth of potassium as well.
    

 avocado macros 1 medium
  • Calories: 227
  • Fat: 21g
  • Sodium: 11mg
  • Carbohydrates: 12g   (subtract fiber from carbs gives you  2.8 grams)
  • Fiber: 9.2g
  • Sugars: 0.4g
  • Protein: 2.7g 
 potato macros 2/3 cup
  • Calories: 87
  • Water: 77%
  • Protein: 1.9 grams
  • Carbs: 20.1 grams   20.1-1.8=18.3 grams
  • Sugar: 0.9 grams
  • Fiber: 1.8 grams
  • Fat: 0.1 grams


Truly, a super food worthy of praise that can possibly be a potato substitute.  I can't say the same for potatoes.

Avocado salad?  Hmmm...
