Although there may be a small amount of CO2 adsorbed on the coffee granules, it would never be a problem in coffee being brewed with (approximately) boiling water. Like all gasses, it's solubility is decreased with increasing temperature - and by the time water is near boiling it's been long gone. Water is also (temporarily) deoxygenated, too, at that temperature. The amount of CO2 is pretty trivial to begin with - at least in terms of what you'd taste. In fact, subjective though it may be, the coffee that inspired the original post is more sour than, for example, seltzer. Which is brought up as a further example for you (or science experiment !). Have you noticed opening a war bottle of any carbonated beverage results in a lot of gas coming out of solution and frothing all over the place? The reduced pressure (from even more gas that has left solution) being released allows it to try to find a new equilibrium of dissolved gases for it's temperature and pressure - but COLD it hardly froths at all by comparison. Why not heat up a nice big cup of your favorite carbonated beverage and see how it tastes (even after cooling).

Nope... Nagy is moved by Gin :rolleyes: :laugh: Just in case: spirituos is a name for high alcoholic drinks over here M.D.V. ;) If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about? Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

That's very nice tips for the day, we all need to be grateful for all that we have. Am going to share it in this my tutorialsblog

Maybe that's a better idea than I had - I just requested they send me the perforations and an installation manual.

Thanks for posting dave, I'll scrap everything and start over and try again.

You of course will recall the cartoon of one mouse in a scientist's maze informing another that if he runs it to the end he will train the scientist to give him more cheese. A kind of "feed-back".

a rare instance of some people doing their jobs. I would love to know all of the times scientists, engineers, accountants cooked the data due to "pressure."

Well - maybe - they have fun answering the post, playing around on the thread.

All my browsers flush cookies when they close - and I often do an intermediate flush if it's been browsed with for a while. For that matter, flash cookies are purged as well. Also pixel graphics are blocked and ads, as well (CP is one of the few exceptions to the ad-blocker). In addition, I tried on more than one base IP: my home system vs. my desktop at work in another city. Right after I bought the item that finally pushed me to post (rubber kitchen gloves) that same link showed the Small and XL at the same original price and the Large (only the three sizes available), which I had purchased, increased about 14% . I tried all the "tricks" so to speak, except I've not looked at the price via the VPN on have on yet another machine. I think the price was raised as soon as it was sold by the third-party vendor because of the increased demand. Only a theory. The logic - that they don't make enough on the initial sale . . . . or prices go up anyway. Why would this not apply to retail stores, as well? Normally, it would seem, they take items that are good sellers (and thus attractive to the most customers) and put them on sale to draw customers into the store (in the hopes they buy other items as well).
