  • I like flavored coffee on occasion. We have two grinders, the slightly lower quality one gets all the flavored beans, they never go into the good grinder.

    That said, I got a handful of flavors recently to share with friends. I like to bring our espresso machine glamping, I set it up on a table under a tarp next to our tent, with a 100 foot cord running to a small generator.

    When I got home, I tried mixing a little bit of each flavor together. 5 flavors,a few beans from each. It was honestly terrible. Far worse than any individual flavor by itself. It wasn’t unique or interesting, it was bad, and I’ll never do it again 🤷‍♂️

    Edit: That said, while I would never put flavored beans in the flavor free grinder, as a matter of principle… I’ve never noticed a problem when changing from one flavor to another in the flavored grinder. So I doubt the grocery store grinder would affect the flavor that much 🤷‍♂️











  • I guess my worry was that they wouldn’t be dry by the morning.

    I wash my feet before going to bed, and I have a second pair of socks that I only wear at night (when it’s cold, otherwise none).

    Like I say, if I had to go more than two nights, I’d have to figure something else out. Maybe two pairs of hiking socks, so one has 36 hours to dry instead of just 8 or 10.

    That’s actually not a bad idea… I could do that now for little effort 🤔
