 Welcome back to my YouTube channel. This is Daniel Rossell here For today's video. I'm going to be trying something a little bit different I've been getting these YouTube comments for about the last year since I started posting more videos on YouTube And I've been typically writing back to people and I felt like you know, varying it up a bit Sometimes it's hard to get sufficient depth when you're writing back and I thought you know seeing as YouTube's a video platform Why not do video answers? So I'm going to call this YouTube mail bag. I'm going to try to get through four or five of my recent comments here on YouTube and I hope that this will be an ongoing thing as I have mentioned recently I am currently trying to reorganize my channel make it less random There have certainly been a huge variety of topics to date It's going to be a work in progress. So if the randomness is bothering you You don't have to stick around but if you do enjoy the randomness Stay along for the ride and this mail bag is going to be Coming some somewhat regularly. Let's just say I'm also speaking of other developments on this YouTube channel and going to Ireland tomorrow First time in a number of years. I'm very excited about this I'm also very excited about the fact that I'm transiting through Turkey as a Turkish coffee a fissionado the homeland of coffee I'll be at just the airport So we're gonna be we're gonna be talking about Turkish coffee We're gonna be talking about Networking and maybe one or two more questions. I'll get around to answering in this first mailbag video. Okay first question first comment That we have let's go for this one. That's unbelievable. This is from Ray Nunes. Nunes I think that's a Portuguese name Nunes Ray says that's unbelievable after a month of suffering just found this video. Thanks a lot. No problem Ray I think people usually buy this hardware to balance internet referring. This is about the ER 605 TP link failover bug resolution video That's why they don't get problems I brought this I bought this to have backup internet So it was easy to realize the network has changed I don't know if people most people buy the ER 605 for load balancing I have don't have any data to support that idea, but I think you're probably right I haven't tried the load balancing on the writer as I said in the various videos I did about it I just use it for backup internet the backup one backing up the main one I have said in a couple of videos that I wasn't so impressed with TP link throughout this home internet modification process Now my current currently my home network, which is the bottom Part of my shelf you can see behind me in the green It's actually an old TP link network. There is well besides my ISP writer. I've got the load balancer I've got a cellular TP link writer as feeding in the backup serving as a backup modem And I have a TP link access point and I've a TP link repeater So my entire apartment is actually filled with TP link hardware. It's cheap It's pretty much plug-and-play, but that was definitely not the best experience Having that bug in which basically when my primary one was running it kept switching over to my backup one I flashed the new hardware and that pretty much fixed the problem, but TP link were not helpful I must say and that's why you know, I recommend because this is a type of home networking Thing that you kind of want to set it and forget it. You don't want to have a buggy Hardware or firmware controlling your network. So for that reason, I do recommend probably that folks who have a bit more Money to play around with look for something like ubiquity or one of the other companies I also recommend there's a subreddit called home networking reddit.com slash r slash home networking and The internet's become so clogged up with these Fake reviews that it's very hard to get objective info and that's why I continue to be a big fan of reddit and advocate for Doing research on reddit where hopefully you'll be in touch with people who know what they're talking about So basically that's interesting. You're probably right. I wouldn't however if I were doing another home network backup internet build I wouldn't go for TP link hardware. Okay. I just saw I have a call to take in five minutes So I'm just gonna do one more question and then we're gonna wrap up this first mailbag Kenneth Cohen says thank you for posting. This is my how long does it take to grind Turkish coffee by hand? Whenever I tell people I'm into Turkish coffee and I grind by hand. They say that must be Who is time for that? That must take a while. So that's why I made that video. I thought I don't know It maybe it's two minutes. I've never timed it So I timed it and the conclusion is it takes about one minute to grind one tablespoon of Turkish coffee My opinion not bad. Some folks put two tablespoons of Turkish coffee in a Turkish coffee I find that too strong in the little finjans. I think if you're gonna go for two cups use a bigger cup size essentially and Anyway Kenneth says thank you for posting finding this information is indeed quite hard to find as I search for hand grinders It seems as though multi-purpose grinders can take several minutes And so a dedicated Turkish coffee grinder is a way to go so Ken I have three at least different hand grinders I have the Lido to Lido et sozen and I have a cheap one on Amazon whose name I forget and I did a video comparing grinding for Turkish using both a sozen hand grinder and using the Lido to my Conclusions whereas follows firstly if we look at the price It's big the Lido all their grinders a lot more expensive than these little things You can just buy off the street in Turkey or buy online from sozen grinders calm The grinding process was actually a lot more fluid on the sozen despite it being a smaller much smaller handle So there's that and of course because it's smaller takes up less counter space now I did grind both Turkish coffee and cardamom and both the Lido and the sozen. I grinded them together So what are my conclusions? If you really really don't want to grind anything but Turkish coffee I'd actually definitely save the money and go for a dedicated Turkish coffee grinder like the sozen There are a few other companies and I know that I'm pronouncing sozen wrong Someone has corrected me before on my Turkish pronunciation of sozen Jezva at least Jezva I pronounce right But so ZDN however, that's pronounced. I think they're good the Lido. It's nice because my wife Drinks pour over coffee. So it's nice to have a couple of hand grinders and once you get into hand grinding You know the couple of minutes per day ends up becoming quite enjoyable feels like you're doing some sort of exercise I don't know if there's actually any Benefits from doing the cranking, but it's kind of relaxing and I think one minute if you're drinking four cups of coffee per day That's not so bad to take an additional four minutes out of your day to do a little bit of you know Exercises what you think about the amazing coffee you're brewing So my sort of thoughts about the matter are if you are really sure you just want to do Turkish Go for a sozen if you might occasionally want to be grinding hand grinding for pour over for espresso for cold brew Which I'm currently dabbling in I'd recommend the Lido if you can afford it and you're a real coffee enthusiast Just remember every time you make coffee at home You're saving money on not buying coffee outside of the outside of your house So if you can afford it I recommend actually picking up one of each the dedicated Turkish one and then keeping a separate Bigger hand grinder for when you want to break out and experiment with different grinds or someone else in your house But it's interesting that you're saying that the Lido is slower for Turkish coffee I haven't measured the time difference, but intuitively I think you're right about that It's less fluid and it probably takes a lot more time. Okay. I have to jump off my mail bag to go and do a zoom call That was the first mail bag if there are more interesting YouTube comments I will be doing more of these because it's a lot more fun than typing into my YouTube studio screen Thanks to everyone who comments on my videos the engagement is much appreciated and really keep the questions coming They make my day fun to answer and Subscribe if you if it's your first time on this channel and you want to get more videos on all these random wacky topics Thanks for watching
