We should make a song contest where artist(s) from each instance sings/plays a song, like Eurovision (I am aware of Lemmyvision's existence)

English

I’d like to call it Fedivision.

I know Lemmyvision exists and it is awesome but it focuses on country instances, whereas Fedivision would be about the fediverse as a whole and would see each instance as a potential contestant. Lemmy, mastodon, misskey, pixelfed you name it.

And yes, unlike Lemmyvision, Fedivision will be about people singing, composing, mixing (sometimes bad) songs, not submissions of songs from original artists. Contestants will be able to sing or play an existing song or submit something they cooked themselves.

I feel like this approach is more compatible with Fediverse in general, as all instances already act like a country: they have their own culture, people, and “laws”. Fedivision will be about the culture of each instance instead of countries.

I want to make it a reality, I need help and feedback from y’all. I am not really an artist in any way, so it would be really cool if somebody cooked a poster.

Do you think this is feasible? What would you like to add? Let me know.

      I was about to crunch the numbers to check for myself, thanks for doing it, you did a great job.

      Amazes me how they made it work considering the amount of arcane shit it takes to make jet engines work. Of course it is possible since electric motors are torque monsters, but it still must’ve taken insane efforts to make it work.

      I wonder if we’ll see these flying anytime soon or if they’ll get shot down by the fossil fuel i industry just like everything else that is amazing

      I ground my coffee at the 1.5.2 setting. Seems to be the sweet spot for the beans I got. The result is beautiful coffee with a strong body and a bit of very pleasant acidity in the background.

      I also tamped it by hitting the funnel on the kitchen counter repeatedly and started with room temperature water.

      Thanks everyone!

      Well I already grind very fine (coarse espresso grind!), and going finer results in even more acidity from what I found. It is probably channeling. I may be confusing bitterness with acidity but I doubt it since it just tastes like lemon.

      I increased my grind size from 0.9 to 1.5 after reading some threads on the net and from what I remember 1.5 yielded better results. But it was still very acidic and lemony.

      I don’t think it is the beans. I specifically requested full bodied/low acidity beans and drank a cortado made from the same beans in that cafe. It was delicious and visibly less acidic compared to your average light roast.

    Is moka coffee supposed to be sour?

    English

    I don’t like acidity in my coffee much. Stuff I get from my moka pot on the other hand was always very acidic.

    Recently I bought a bag of very good, beautiful smelling beans from my favourite coffee shop and brewed it on moka pot. The results are still the same, it almost tastes like lemonade. It is undrinkable amounts of acid in there.

    I use the 1zpresso Q Air. I tried nearly every grind setting between 1.6-0.9 (chart, please click). Always the same result.

    I also tried starting with both hot and cold water. No difference.

    I do not tamp my coffee and flatten it nicely by shaking the basket. I don’t overfill the basket.

    My moka pot is 2-3 years old and I might need to change its gasket, wonder if that has anything to do with it but i doubt it since the gasket still seals pretty good except for a 5-10mL water leak every brew.
