Fine tuning the Lego spectrometer more.
Using a maglite as the source eliminates the need for a separate collimating lens.
I also switched away from the very flaky variable slit made of a sliding brick that wouldn't stay in place if you looked at it wrong.
After some failed experiments with aluminum foil, I discovered that the round tree trunk Duplo brick was a tiny bit smaller than a nominal square 2x2 brick. When placed next to a square brick and locked in place with …

Overview of the new spectrometer setup: a mag lite sits in the groove between two studs with bricks on either side to keep it from rolling, then has a single stud gap before the slit for inserting the sample into

Brought home some #espresso beans. Pulled a shot on a Bambino Plus with default settings, then made a cappuccino on the same machine. Tomorrow I'll try with the Flair 58.

Looking down into an espresso cup half full of espresso, with a tiny biscotti and spoon on its saucer; a bag of whole bean coffee labeled La Bermeja (forest fruits, plum, almond) with a stylized gryphon silhouette.
A fine china mug painted with a Cheshire cat and the text “We’re all mad here,” filled to the top with milk foam, sitting on a Barbican coaster; a few biscotti and the bag of beans visible in the background.

Just popped into my head - a memory of an evening, lit but not bright: I was walking and suddenly came face-to-"face' with a person in full Klu Klux Klan regalia, with pointed hood. He was much taller than I am. And as he looked down on me he was slapping an aluminum baseball bat into his palm. Scary? You betcha!!
There's more to the story...

"Velkajarrun kaltaiset lukot siirtävät poliittista harkintaa sääntöjen ja tulkintojen piiriin"
"Tutkimus on osoittanut, miten talouspoliittista keskustelua käydään käytännössä kyseenalaistamattomuuden raameissa"
#politiikka #ValtionTalous

Talouspolitiikan säännöt ovat poliittisia valintoja
Arviointineuvoston riippumattomuus ja laaja-alainen tietopohja ovat demokratian kannalta keskeisiä.

It’s ridiculous how good golden beets taste like
(just add some salt and oil, e.g. avocado oil, wrap in aluminum foil and roast in oven at 350°F for 75 minutes)
