I’ve been trying out Dendron on the Mac and Surface for a couple of weeks now. Some Git troubles (i’m not really that technical) had me slink away after some brief experimentation. I tried Obsidian out and I liked it generally, but found it a little hard on the eyes on the Mac. Why did I try it? I continue to cast about for a means of taking notes that I can stick with I tend to prefer text files flavored by Markdown, but I want a few things, such as cross-platform sync (Windows and Mac, plus iOS), and, most recently due to my dabbling with Workflowy, backlinks. It requires Microsoft’s free Visual Studio Code, a monster IDE that’s available on Mac, Windows, and Linux. YANA: Dendron is Yet Another Notes App, in the style of new hotness such as Obsidian. This bit of physics may explain what happened with the basket and paper filter method I tried. The only modification, I learned, was that you have to put a straw or something in between the glass lip and the filter paper to allow gas to escape. It turns out, yes, you certainly can: the paper filter works in the Bodum carafe. That did not work, as the coffee steeped too long/drained to slowly, producing an over-extracted cup.īut what about a Chemex paper? Could I use one of those to make a cup and jettison the metal basket? I first tried dropping a Melita #4 filter into the metal basket. I got to wondering: can I use a paper filter with the Bodum? I like pour over for producing a different cup of coffee. In this case, I’d rather go the immersion route and brew with the French press. I have a Bodum pour-over that I bought years ago, which works fine but is limited by the fact that its metal screen filter lets plenty of undissolved solids into the brew, so you get a lot of body. (K-Cups are nothing if not simple and easy to clean up.) And that’s been a great addition I can brew a nice cup in a couple of minutes, and the Aeropress makes great-tasting coffee (assuming you start with good, fresh beans). I recently schlepped an Aeropress in, as it’s small and easy to clean. I don’t have a Chemex, though, and am loathe to bring another method of brewing into the house right now.īut… there is the office. I’ve always fancied the Chemex coffee brewer it has an iconic, minimalist design, and functionally is unique in that you’re dropping a paper filter into the opening of a carafe… there’s not plastic basket or anything else to use.
