    1. The skerton was (is?) A good entry level grinder that will give you very decent results especially for immersion-type brews. It’s what I started on and what I still use for on the go use cases. I haven’t looked at entry level hand grinders in a while so I guess some developments have happened since I got mine. (Based on a comparison video from james hoffman at the time)

    2. God yes, I tried a friend’s 1zpresso and the difference in both grind speed and effort is noticable.

    Context: I’m european. I know for sure the people at my local coffee shops are being paid a living wage, cause there’s laws for that.

    Paying your employees a living wage is included in what I see as “a sustainable business model”.

    I know the owner of my local coffee shop personally and while they charge €4 or more depending on the coffee you’re getting AND they roast their own coffee, so they cut down on the bean costs significantly while generating some extra profits as well by selling the beans, they still aren’t “just raking it in” as you make it seem.

    A coffee from a coffee shop definitely should be $4 if you want them to ethically source good coffee and have a sustainable business model.

    There’s still cheap, shitty coffee that’s built on modern slavery there’s always like mcdo. SB is the same quality ingredients but with knowing how to steam milk + syrups

    Alternatively, get good, consistently win games against people who are worse, stop coping and you’ll get to the rank you deserve.

    There is no such thing as elo hell, if you’re consistently outperforming your direct opponent you will win more games than you lose against people of your MMR and you will climb. “Elo hell” is just a coping mechanism for people who can’t admit they’re bad
