                Damn that sounds nice! Super jealous I am [emoji1] We are going to Alaska next month and I'm hoping it's going to be around that temp.

                  That jacket is the most useful down jacket I have ever had (Paula has 3 - I thinks she's trying for the set…....) Amazingly warm, can compress to virtually nothing and pretty reasonably priced imo....

                    Thanks for the info, I have been looking for something similar and this would be great. I love my IHJ-08 but this looks more packable. When we go on our cruise, I plan on wearing a Battenwear primaloft vest under a Topo Mountain Jacket. I hope it works out [emoji1]

                      Stumptown coffee today from the deli downstairs, and it's only $1.35 to fill your own mug.  This is probably the best coffee I've ever tasted (seriously).

                          glad to see bulletproof coffee getting some love. It makes a mess out of the coffee but is a GREAT way to start the day. I really miss it when I travel!

                          I just started doing the bulletproof coffee thing. Been on it a week and I feel great. I've been using coconut oil but once I run out I might try the brain octane instead.

                              glad to hear someone else is into it. Most people I tell think I'm crazy. But I really notice a difference after just a week. Also I'm only drinking one cup of coffee a day now instead of 3 or 4 cups of regular coffee and with no crash in the afternoon.

                                I unintentionally stopped with all the work travel. Time to get back on it! I do notice the difference hugely on vs off still!

                                  Part of why I got the Able Kone is that Dave Asprey recommends a metal filter. I cold brew most of my coffee in a French press for the lower acidity but figured I'd give the metal cone a try for when I make pour overs. I've really drunk the bulletproof kool-aid!

                                    That bullet proof coffee site looks like one of those pyramid scheme sites. Not hating, just saying.

                                      I'm just using bulletproof as a general term for coffee with butter and coconut oil (mct oil etc.). I don't know about the brand bulletproof coffee, I've never tried it.

                                          yeah, f' the brand. Just the ingredients. It reminds me a lot of 'official' cross fit and you need the right gear or else it's shite. The coffee they're using here is a joke which just shows what a shame it is. Bit of a cult, but the combination itself of coconut oil and butter is amazing!

                                            I put some Great Lakes Gelatine in there too for some decent protein on top of the fats.
