... I attribute it to swinging metal at small things for fun ...

And until a few months ago, between 7 km and 10 km daily dog walks. Sadly, those have diminished greatly since March.

I walked the course when I played Oliver's this past Sunday and considering that I wasn't wiped at all, I can see myself doing that a lot more in future rounds.

I also shot my best round ever ... a 77 on a Par 71 track. With the trail elbow and the shaft position corrections that I am incorporating this year, I can see myself doing THAT a lot more too.

Did you see barbie? I kinda wanna go...

Yes saw it Friday. It was awesome!

We saw Oppenheimer on Sunday... Less awesome.

Was Oppenheimer awesome but in a bummer, history stinks way? Or was it just bad? I also kinda wanna see that one, but probably with fewer giggles and teeheeing at the cute pink clad folks...

So, are you tellin me it wasn't....... The bomb?!?

I just picked up some coffee gel for hiking, beats snorting powdered coffee.
Some chocolate for emergencies, like withdrawal symptoms.

Folgers makes coffee tea bags, they work really well and taste pretty good, for roughing it.

We are gonna eventually see both - watch Oppenheimer straight and watch Barbie after smoking a full RAW King Cone.

I want people who mix beer with fruits or spices to be arrested, so I'm defenitely in the "hot coffee" camp.

I am usually in the same camp but I tried this for grins and it tastes like a pumpkin pie. Not something I would drink much of but they accomplished what they tried to do.

... I do 24 ounces of water to an ounce of coffee, overnight for at least 8 hours. Strain out the bits, and dilute to your taste ...

So ... do the grounds just float on top and make the pot look like the mouth of the Don River?

You’re so fancy…lol. I use the Walmart brand individual caffeinated electrolyte packs.

We have a craft brewery that has a mango white ale served with a slice of orange. Damn, that's good with a hot Rubin sandwich.

They should sink after the first 6 hours, but it is nice to have some coffee filters or a small strainer around if your mix has more dusty grit that wants to float. Luckily the conversion process usually means folks have some filters around. They make convenient strainers for us daily warriors. A kind of cone shaped sieve that fits to a mason jar mouth.

It wasn't bad. I went high AF fully planning on napping throughout and I stayed awake. Just kinda slow to get going and not really a type of movie I'd go to see

I have a buddy who just brought one single "mio energy" squeeze bottle on his most recent week long hike. He just shoots it undiluted, apparently... *shudders* I am somehow still friends with him

We have the paper filters - but we also had a coffee maker prior to this one with one of those conical wire mesh filters. I bet that would work well. It would also work well if we can find it.

* searching ... searching *

Just a guess ... but does he also scroll with his index finger?

Indeed. I used my cone one from pour over for a few months before I decided coldbrew would be my go to, and so upgraded to a slightly easier, but similarly reusable method. I do hope you like it. I rib jeff a lot because he is a goob and a good buddy, but I honestly found the discovery of coldbrew to be a coffee drinking upgrade! We're all weed connoisseurs, and this I feel is just another step to us all becoming pinky out fancy pants friends. Like trying a dry herb vape for the first time, but coffee!

I have 3 of those things.

Nope. I actually observed my friends after @Laughing Grass grass shamed me. I am the only one I know... It might be the arthritis, or it might be that I just suck, who can say.

The curmudgeons response is cold coffee is like drinking a beer with a cigarette butt in it. Hot coffee and iced tea, that is god's plan.

Is the curmudgeon you? Or another in your home? Would that person say a hot alcoholic drink like a toddy, or a hot buttered rum is similarly not in gods plan? I love this coldbrew discourse. I should make a thread
