What is something you SHOULD cheap out on?

    I agree except for condiments. They're cheap enough already compared to how long they last that I think it's worth springing for the good stuff. Duke's Mayo, Grey Poupon mustard, Cholula hot sauce, Ken's Steakhouse salad dressings, etc. If a bottle lasts you six months, what difference does a few dollars make?

    For staples like flour, bread, canned products, OTC meds, who cares. I'll go as cheap as possible.

    I'm normally fine but something about the shape and texture of the standard ibuprofen tablet just sticks to my throat, or at least feels like it's sticking to my throat.

    I have a Surface Pro 4, and I'm looking for a simple PDF viewer that works well in tablet mode. I used to use Edge, but after they switched to chromium it lost a few key features for me (pen input automatically being a pen instead of scroll, pen eraser working, full screen page swipe rather than scroll, etc). Everything else I've found is either way overpowered and cluttered, or doesn't work well with tablet mode and pen input. Any suggestions?

    Also this might be off topic for this community as this is a carbon steel pan (Merten & Storck).

    Modified version of [King Arthur's Pain de Campagne recipe](https://youtu.be/UL6ogX38NcY?si=lipKyfnRS69i2g5c). Work two cups (one per loaf) of semi-sweet mini chocolate chips into the dough before the bulk rise step. Definitely worth a shot! Delicious toasted with some butter, would probably make great French toast as well

    I've been using my Rancilio Silvia with my Eureka Mignon Manuale grinder to pull two double shots daily for about a year now. I've been working really hard to maintain consistency with my distribution and tamping, but the one thing that has been consistent is how uneven the extraction is. Nearly without fail when the coffee first emerges from the bottom of my bottomless portafilter, it emerges from back to front, and blondes much faster at the back then at the front. I know this is causing uneven extraction and unnecessary bitterness. What could be causing this, and how can I improve? Is it something intrinsic to the machine or am I habitually tamping crookedly? How can I diagnose?
