@[email protected] when I post on a Lemmy community I always follow it first, so I should receive everything that is boosted in theory. For comparison, I do the same with Guppe groups and it works as you described (as long as the group is tagged)

ERRATA CORRIGE
Turns out I’m a little dumb and I read the K6 precautions incorrectly

RDT is not actually discouraged. They actually advice against spraying water directly on the metal parts of the grinder

Avoid spraying water directly onto any part of the grinder. You can perform RDT by spraying water on another object.

So there’s that. It is not so sensible to corrosion as I was firstly worried about. Yay

@[email protected] never tried RDR, but I heard multiple times about that. I don’t think I’ll try it since the manufacturer explicitly advises against that technique, however I think I’d still prefer to clean it at least once a couple of days, so the hustle of assembly would remain. Fortunately seems like I’m getting used to it, they could have done better tho

@[email protected] to be honest, it seems like there’s not general consensus about which material works better, so my guess is that they may give different results but they’re both good depending on what you like.
I’d also add that the grinder itself might be more important as the overall build quality and stability might have a role in the quality of grinding, as someone suggested that Porlex performs worse not because of the burr itself but because it is not secured well enough so it has some play side to side.
But yeah, as I said I was still happy with that, even if it was generally less comfortable to use

@[email protected] @[email protected] Until now I’ve always been using Porlex mini II, but sadly I broke the burr. I was pretty happy about it but I learned it is generally considered as an inconsistent grinder, so I looked for an upgrade in my setup and K6 seemed a good choice.
To be honest I did notice a certain range of dimension in the Porlex ground, but the resulting coffee always seemed good enough for me. I’m curious about the difference with the K6

About a.gup.pe, I’m using Sharkey to post, so I don’t really know if lemmy supports the following of users. I guess it’s not possible, since Guppe groups are technically bot accounts, Lemmy shouldn’t be able to see them as communities

@[email protected] that’s right, I’m just focusing on accounts boosting because it’s a very good way to discover people you wouldn’t see otherwise, as they may boost from networks outside your reach. And since communities speaking different languages can be more separated, that’s a good way to ho imho
