    take the cap off and push it all the way through. The rubber of the plunger will poke through the end and you wont compress it while storing it.

    Beer temple
    de prael brewery
    Browerij 't ij
    Cafe Soundgarden for a decent dive bar
    Cafe Gollem
    In De Wildeman
    Cafe De Tuin

    etc etc etc theres plenty of good brown bars dotted around, plenty of shit ones too though.

    de Ton Ton club is worth checking out, just so you can drink a beer, play daytona and check out the red light windows all the same time, although i think theyve rearranged since i left so the arcade games are in the back.

    Vegabond or dop hert, Dop hert is kind of out of the way though, so probably vegabond(which is only a short walk from RLD and most of the touristy stuff. If its a nice day they have a terrace that looks over canal as well which is really nice. I moved away from AMS about 4 months ago so there may be more things that have opened since then that are worth a look.

    Where are you staying?

    If you're a coffee fan I can hook you up with all the good places to visit as well...

    Amsterdam (in no particular order):
    Dop Hert
    Koffie ende Koeck
    TerraZen
    Vegabond Cafe (also a vegan supermarket)
    Bolhoed
    De Vegetarische Slager (market "the vegetarian butcher")
    Golden Temple
    Maoz Falafel (veg but im pretty sure also vegan options)
    De Vliegende Schotel (just moved to bos en lommer)
    Back to black cafe (everything vegetarian, sometimes vegan stuff)

    Albert Heijn is starting to get mock meats and soy products more and more, as is Jumbo but the selection is still limited, for that sort of thing go to the vegatarische slager. Nothing is super expensive on that list and its all reasonable to good quality. Theres a few more but I haven't eaten at them.

    Hows the water temperature?

    Id be inclined to grind a bit finer but your pre infusion time seems long already. Im not familiar with the quickmill or its pre infusion timing.

    Real Baristas don't wipe.

    Depends what I ate for dinner the night before and how long I wait in the morning for my first coffee...
