So can we talk mugs? I tend to make a half liter (~17 oz) of coffee in a French Press in the morning. I run into the problem that I get about a half hour to 45 minutes (I’ve never timed it this number might be wildly off) in before the, “Crap! Its getting cold!” moment and feel like I have to accelerate my consumption to...
I’m a big fan of the Fellow Carter Move mugs. They definitely keep coffee hot (or cold) for quite some time. I actually have to cool off my freshly brewed coffee before I put it in the mug if I want to drink it in without waiting a long time. There are a few lid options, but I’ve found that the standard lid and slide lid keep temperature the best. There’s also several sizes available, though the 20oz is listed as a cold mug, it’ll work with the hot lids.
I realize I sound like a shill for the brand, but I just really like the mugs haha.
They definitely aren’t the cheapest option, that’s for sure. They do their job well, and they don’t leak at all with the standard lid. The wide opening is definitely a very nice feature, it does feel more like drinking from a traditional mug.
One thing to note, and I haven’t experienced this myself, is that some people have reported that the ceramic lining can absorb some unpleasant odors. Though I think that was just the early batches, and has since been fixed.
So I started collecting bottle caps in college when I turned 21 with the rule that I had to be the drinker of the brew. 22 years later I’m still collecting and now color coding without purpose or end goal.
I like to use a French press for my iced coffee so that it has more body and a thicker mouthfeel. I use James Hoffmann’s French press method, but use a 1:14 ratio of coffee to water. The water is split 70:30 water to ice. After the brew is done, I just pour the “concentrate” over the ice to cool it, then pour over fresh ice in a glass.
My standard brew ends up being 32g coffee, 315g water, and 135g ice.
Currently using wezterm, mostly because it supports font ligatures and alacritty doesn’t (I really like the fancy symbols haha). I do use the window management in wezterm, but I’d go back to tmux if alacritty implements ligatures.
Let's talk travel/insulated mugs.

To the guy that collected bottle caps for a month... 22 years later... (lemmy.world)

What's the best way to make iced coffee?
I don’t like any ice watering it down. I usually make pour overs, my current beans pictured...
Terminal emulators
Curious what terminal emulators people use/recommend? I'm using Alacritty myself, but want to try other ones
