Every time I steam milk with the steam wand, milk is seared to the wand. I've tried to wipe off the milk as soon as the wand is pulled out of the pitcher, but atlas, it's already seared and won't wipe off easily. I end up using a wet paper towel to clean it up. Is there a better way that I'm miss...

I am receiving a Linea Mini. As I understand, all espresso machines are picky when it comes to water. In preparation, I've investigated my reverse osmosis system. The water has a TPM of 26 and pH of 6.3. The target should be 90-150 TPM and 6.5-8 pH. I added a remineralization system and was able ...

When I bought my Linea Mini, it came packaged with the Pico Grinder. It was a newly released grinder from La Marzocco and at that time, you couldn't purchase the grinder separately. Now, you can buy it directly. I didn't know a...

I don't get to the gym as much as I should. All my daily ambitions don't fit in a 24-hour day, and working out is on the lower half of that list. In other words, it falls off my priority list frequently.

I work from home and figured if working out was more convenient than driving to a gym, I'd l...

After getting my Linea Mini, I went to a local coffee shop and roaster to get my first beans. Lineage being close, and knowing what their coffee taste like, figured it would be a good start to learn how to dial in coffee. I als...

A year or so ago, I bought this DiskStation mostly for storing of photos and music. I was using iCloud previously and wanted to avoid the monthly expense, plus I wanted storage access for my Roon server. After a lot of research and talking with friends, the versatility and easy UI made Synology t...

I like these headphones and use them all the time. The only issue I don't care for is having to adjust the headband down in order to fit in the case. When I pull them out, I have to re-adjust them every time before putting back on my head.

I didn't change any settings of my watch, it stopped syncing after a 13miles run. Anyone has the same issue? I know some more advanced models have mannual sync option on the watch but not this one. My Connect app also doesn't have sync option.
