lol this thread is amazing. Hacker news is truly a place filled with confidently wrong smart people. Showed this to my wife, a barista in Seattle, and she asked me why I go to this stupid fucking site. I wasn’t able to give a good answer other than boredom.


I mean if you think about it, almost nobody here is a Barista (home or commercial), but most people here are technical. People don't realise the complexity of coffee when they haven't actually tried making espresso so it's not too surprising that you get people who think they've figured it all out in their head. Same thing happens on this website with basically any niche technology (haha, I can't believe I am referring to brewing coffee as technology).
