You actually make me think of an old dear friend.... someone I often wish was enjoying a more authentic life much like yourself. I appreciate your show. Thanks!
I went through a similar experience in elementary school with the comparison thing. When I was in third grade, our teacher wanted us all to write who we wanted to be like when we grew up. That stumped me. I've never wanted to be like anyone else, and it never occurred to me that anyone else would want to be like anyone else either. So, I get it.
I wanna say hi from the Netherlands and wanna let you know that one of the reasons that I watch your channel is because I think that you are unique. That and the beautiful shots of the West Coast nature keeps me hooked on your channel. So stay your beautiful unique self ❤
Scott, I am also disgusted by celebrities. They offend me, and the thought that people think celebrities are better than anyone else makes me queasy. I am so very happy that you put out this video, and thank you for being exactly who you are. You are in my very short list of favourite TH-cam creators, and I'm grateful for your presence in my day. Thanks, it's always a pleasure to listen to you😊
I use to use the inverse method but have now got the aeropress flow control so there is no need as no drips until you plunge. I find the James Hoffmann aeropress method good for a regular everyday cup.
This came up in my feed as a suggested vid. Well...I so agree. Not on the coffee. Unfortunately my taste and smell is gone since 2018. But Idols,..stars...it makes me sick. In my 20s I looked like Bernadette Peters I was told. Now I am just old.😂
Thanks for your honesty. I have learned a lot things from you making a good coffee is one of them 😂. No one has the right to compare or evaluate you. Every one is special by his choice. The important goal is to be a good manners person.
This topic of decaffeinated coffee brings back memories from 48 years ago in my Organic Chemistry lab that was the first experiment that we performed namely the isolation of caffeine from tea. The end result was a couple hundred of milligrams of caffeine crystal needles. No we did not consume the product, but it was fun. I went on to become a medicinal chemist but now I am retired. I also share your disdain of the Hollyweird scene and opinions of the Hollywood types as if they are on some kind of pedestal. I don't even watch TV anymore.
I am taking your coffee tips to heart, it's funny, 66 years old and everything I ever learned about making coffee I learned from Scott on utube...😅 I lived in orange county as a kid & I've never been dazzled by the hollyweirds either! Hope your day is superb!
Oops!!! I just discovered your site and my first comment the other day was saying you reminded me of a famous comedian!! Sorry about that! I didn’t mean to offend. I think I was just curious if others had thought the same. It’s cool you are your own person and have confidence in yourself. I think that’s a bit unique. You are lucky to have that inner strength! ❤😊 Sara in Seattle
Well said. Authenticity is the word that comes to mind. There are some that are and some that are not. Scott, you are genuine and authentic. A lovely one of a kind! Of all the channels I watch yours is the one that I’ll watch and re watch or simply listen to over and over again because of these qualities. And, as I’ve said before, your voice is the only one that soothes me to sleep! As a Brit I respect and value our hard-working Royal Family. They are not celebrities in my opinion - just real people born into a life of service trying to make their roles relevant in a modern age. (Unfortunately the media often portray things differently for their own gain which can give a completely distorted impression.) IMO those serving us in UK are doing their best and proving that they are not immune to what life can throw at us.
Yes, you are right. You are you and unique! And I like listening to you. You have a beautiful voice. Your videos are interesting. Thank you for being you! And thank you for being there! best regards, from Paris France.
Many years ago, after moving to L.A., I worked in a law office on Sunset Boulevard from which I could see the famous "Hollywood" sign on the hillside. My husband worked in accounting in a top music recording studio. We saw a lot of famous people in our daily life, but I didn't pay much attention to them. I've never wanted to be like anyone else, nor coveted what they had. Some exceptionally talented musicians who are now legends recorded at the studio where my husband worked, and he enjoyed being involved. There was some incredible talent among the audio engineers there, and we formed friendships with one or two. It was certainly an interesting experience for a couple of Midwesterners, but after our first child was born, we moved on to the State of Seattle where we learned the joys of camping in the rain. Far removed from our exposure to Hollywood.
P.s. I saw a campervan like yours somewhere on the Central Oregon Coast last night as I was driving up to my weekend campsite. I won't say where, just in case it was you! But I'm sitting here in a cloud on a mountain in the forest, 58°, listening to mourning doves and a bull elk bugling, and it's lovely! Have a great weekend!
@@StaticCamperVan Right. It's either that, or I would do something ridiculous like buy one of those industrial grinders like you see in Whole Foods and put it in my van. I was already seriously looking at getting a nut butter grinder like some of the stores have.
I did not know this brewing info about light roast & decaf. Very interesting. I don't care one iota about celebrities. I do enjoy watching someone who is good at their craft, be it acting or a backhoe operator. I also enjoy people who have figured out how to live a life that THEY are happy with, something that truly works for them. I think that is, in part, why I enjoy your videos. You set out to figure out a life that works for YOU, and you found it. Thanks again for another good video.
I also call it Hollyweird, I did several programs on KPFK lived in LA for 30 years. I hear what you're saying Scott and understand your point of view. 🌱🎶
You're right about Hollyweird. My Husband has a brother that worked in the music business and a sister that worked as a makeup artist in the film business. My husband was in a couple of bands as a drummer and guitarist. Mainly amateur bands. He also met some famous rock stars of the 80's. He was warned about the weirdness from his siblings. There's actually truth to what you said about the celebs. He's the only one of his siblings to leave California. Just to crazy there for him.
I grew up in a family of 7, number 5 in line. Same feelings when following siblings - teachers compare you to your older siblings. It was a small school so we all knew each other. We are a society that likes to compare people to others. You are unique which is nice.
Scott You are right and I like your just the way you are ,I don’t like to be compared to other people,so I understand you , by the way I love your videos
💜 i’m not real sure how to respond to all of this. There were so much in this video. I feel like I should be saying something so profound but you kind of had that figured out when you were a young boy. To even have thought about being able to bring that up to an adult in your youth is pretty profound. I understand it deeply. there’s always this tendency to compare each of us to one another, especially in our younger years. I actually remember getting to college and the world changed for me. I no longer cared about what anybody thought about me. I didn’t care to try to fit in I didn’t care to try to be like everybody else and I am braced being different. and different isn’t bad is unique. And you are unique. And that’s why you have so many followers on your shell because you are so different than what we are used to out here. You have such a consistent vibe that draws in people and attracts people. It is so comforting to join you out here in this manner where you share what you want to share with us. So I can say, I see you… And I do I see you here where you share with us. I am glad you are who you are. Yes, it is human nature to want to say things like oh you remind me of so-and-so or so-and-so. And I agree with you. I don’t think this is meant as anything to offend you. I think it is something that is meant to, just strike up a conversation and it may have some people fall into that trap of thinking you are someone other than who you are. Seems to me that you don’t let this take you down and that you were comfortable with who you are. My best friend still falls into, the comparison game where she feels like she compares herself with everybody else and she tries to break away from that. I ended that part of me many many many years ago. I am grateful for all that makes me who I am. As far as Hollywood and or Holly weird… I can kind of understand that as well being the person that grew up around that, and seeing the part of that that the rest of us don’t see. But I’d like to think that the people who go that route in their life or also people who are just trying to attain their dreams, and something they love and express themselves in that manner. I don’t think it’s all that weird. I just think what Hollywood can do to people can be very traumatic to the people who are going through potentially and for those of us who watch it and think that all of those actors and actress, actresses and producers etc. etc. in entertainment have it all together and have the best life ever is really not real. It’s all fade. So, wow, I just took up a lot of space here. I am dictating as well so I am sorry if it’s all over the place. But I just wanted to say I really appreciate this video and I think so many of us are going to be responding to you in such a manner that we understand where you’re coming from and and we appreciate you for you. please keep your videos coming out. They really allow us to get to know you better. And we get to see so many places that you share with us that are so beautiful. Like I said, your vibe is very relaxing, mellow and comforting. In this day and age that’s a really hard thing for us to find in this world so if we can keep living vicariously through someone like you, we embrace that. Thank you so much! This was a pretty RAW video… And now, I’m just rambling I suppose… Take care be well and stay with us!💜
I think the most important thing is that YOU don't compare yourself to other people, "Hollyweird" or other. Such a preoccupation can only lead to dissatisfaction because there will always be someone with more money, considered more attractive or successful, etc. And having more of any of these things doesn't necessarily make people happy anyway. Keep doing you! :)
Scott...thank you🎉...thank you. It is getting harder by the day living un a worlrd that is full of judgement, advices that you dont ask for and the comparing issue everybody around others bring out just for them to feel better. I am so happy for you...Living your best life, as a loner but not feeling alone. Thank you. Thst is exactly what I want and need. But right now it is not possible. BLESSINGS.
Hi Scott, great video . And yes , I totally agree with you about Hollywood and celebrities . I’d rather watch your video instead of reading about their lives . 😊
I'm with you on the Hollyweird thing. Unfortunately pop culture is firmly entrenched in seemingly most people. My coworkers will talk about celebrities and sports figures more than they will talk about themselves. I find it very strange. I''m pretty sure my coworkers are human, but sometimes I wonder.
I would never compare someone with anyone else holly weird or even an athlete. I didn't like growing up when someone would say why aren't you like so. I have never seen why any of those people are so revered when they bleed red and are like others. good vlog Scott. have a nice day! You are lovable the way you
I'm in total agree that Hollyweird is determined to lead society off the road of realty to fantasy. Nothing like living on the road, and tossing out the source, TV. Then getting refreshing human contact from real people like you Scott.
Hi Scott, Good to see you, your unique self! I so agree. It is scary to me when we put value on "fake" "reality". I love the coffee chats! Coming to you from the beaches of Rhode Island -for today anyway, haha!
Hi Scott I like you more because you are different in a really good way I find you genuine.talking about hollyweird. I’m from London well we have a comedian here called rickie gervase.i think I spelt his name wrong but if you say the name over google& award ceremonies I think you will find him refreshing.i do he’s hilarious the way he talks to the stars.he sertainly brings. them down a peg or two.loved the coffee chat thankyou.
I've learned not to rest my joy on other flawed people's opinions, because they are like bellybuttons. There is only one static camper van man. Enjoy your coffee.
I was raised in a subculture that was big on measuring, comparing and judging. It got ingrained in me. "This thing is like that bad thing, therefore..." "This person is like that good person, therefore..." But after I got out of that group I became more aware I was doing this - a lot. So I've tried to change my ways. Now I know that if someone reminds me of an undesirable person I should keep it to myself.
Hey there young Mr. Scott👋 Hope you don't take this the wrong way because I do enjoy your videos. And I understand you are a unique individual. When I first ran across your vids, you did remind me of a mild mannered Clark Kent....and I believe that he too would be disappointed in Hollywood. Thumbs up, annd have another cup of coffee!😎👍☕️
Scott, I learned some new tips about making a good cup of decaf...thank you. I drink decaf only, so I am always looking for a great tasting decaf...swiss water processed, of course. Maybe you could do a video that shares some of your favorites....so I can order them. I am grateful for you being you....
Actually, the only two decafs that I recommend are this Catkin and the Fogline, that I mentioned. I only talked about the two because they are the only two that I would purchase again.
Hi scottt my apologies my comments about your sense of humor comparison the reason why I follow you is because you are so unique and I always Enjoy your content. Have a nice evening sir
Hi 👋 hi 👋 Good morning ☀️ I enjoyed our time together this morning. I always love ❤️ a good cup of coffee and a friendly chat 😊 Thanks 🙏🏼 Have a beautiful and blessed weekend 🚐☕️🌮🍊🌻🦋
Im a coffee person! I do understand about coffee. I find my best cup is from the pour over method. Of you're in the California area, try purchasing whole bean coffee from Christopher Bean. Ive never tried the decaf, but the regalar coffee is my definite go to! Wonderful having a cup with you this am! 🌺☕🌺
I agree. People are good and mean well. I feel that if you live on the street or in a mansion you are still an individual and should be respected as such and treated the same. It’s just culture Scott, the way we are raised and taught but sometimes living life and growing older helps us see there is no divider in who we are as a person rich or poor we still should live one another and each be treated equally. Which means we need to be humble no matter who we are or what kind of life we lead. We are all different yet the same.
You're great just being you! I understand. My mother always said, Why can't you be more like the other kids. I'm the middle child and I told her that I'm damn proud not to be! I turned out to be more successful of all of them. Don't discount people like us. I'm not rich by any means. Just content with myself and my life.
Regarding coffee grind size: I use a hand grinder as well, an 1Zpresso JX, but I determine the proper grind setting by how fast the coffee pushes through the paper filter of my AeroPress. I notice that some coffees, particularly the darker roasts and decafs, crumble into powder that clogs my filter. For these I prefer to back-off on the grind size so I don't have to push as hard or wait as long for the extraction chamber to empty. I don't use the upside down method like you do, but I do stir vigorously two or three times during the 2 minute brew time. And yes, I do adjust my water temperature for light or dark roast coffee as you explained in the video. Thanks for sharing!
OMG! Thx Scott! We too have felt this way all our life. We don't, never, ever have looked up to these people on their pedestals. We too don't understand really why, perhaps we are just too practical and can see through their veneer of crap. We were offered one explanation by our grandmother - that was that we were 'jealous' of the elites. No, that didn't sit with us at all. Grandmother used to put on airs and graces when she dragged us along to church; it seemed so superficial and actually surreptitious to us, not to mention exhausting all that acting out she was doing in front of her 'friends'. We also had the same outlook on grades - given an IQ test (one of the early ones, we're 70 now), we were put in a particular learning stream 'for our own good' while we had to sit in crappy (our view, maths, english lit, bookkeeping etc. etc.) classes watching the kids in other streams doing what we wanted. More than anything that solidified the feelings against the ones who thought they were better than us. The principal who made the decision that we reckon set us back educationally for decades, thought he was one of those elites, which quite frankly pissed us off a great deal. Anyway, the last day of school with him was a purler. The Maori boys couldn't stand him either and they took his Mini Minor car, lifted it up from its parking place and put it in a high bed of pansies. We were watching this, and we can tell you, it sure as hell felt good inside , fell apart at the seams laughing, we did ... How the hell that principal got that car out of there beats me; we got on the bus and left laughing with the boys. Oh well, such is life...
Ok, this is going to be long. Sorry. 1) I watch you because you are different from everyone else. I HATE coffee yet find myself listening to you for hours. Your voice and conversation are calming and comforting. 2) I’m happy you brought this up. I am in a group and this last week we had a very rousing discussion about “normal”. What is it, who decides what isn’t normal and why we don’t want to be normal. I believe people fear what they don’t understand therefore they bully, harass and sometimes physically harm people they deem different. It’s a very interesting conversation and I thank you for talking about it. 3) who the hell do people compare you too. I think of myself as a fairly socially aware person but I can’t see anyone but Scott the Static Campervan guy. Thanks for what you do.
❤ Good Morning 🌅 Scott 🌞🌻 Love your Coffee ☕🌻 Chat in the Morning,gets me thur the Day! And the 1st Cup of Coffee is Important! Comparative of People! But you can't judge a person by their Cover! Some people have a lot of 🤑 & Publicity! Some people had more opportunities &it depends what kind of Life people are Looking for! Some people are Very intertaining& some people are Interesting to different Groups of people! But you know when it comes down to it,where all the same! We all have Great Gifts & we are Gods Children ⭐✨💫🌻🤩🙌🙏🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲
Comparisons to others and hollyweirds is just vacuous piffle. Your coffee drinking /advice is an Art form. Thank you for the education. Love and respect from here in Australia.
I’m amazed that I’ve have found someone that thinks like me…..I’ve seen people “kiss up” to people of whom people hold up because they are wealthy or even when someone is attractive…just can’t enjoy know me for who I am…I have always found the strange myself….oh well they will never change..
Your a coffee connoisseur!! I value your opinions on all things coffee related. I will admit, over the last few months I have grown a severe disdain for HollyWierd as well, that’s all I’ll say about that. Stay calm and YellowBird on.
Hey Scott, I was curious about what kind of hobbies/activities you do inside the van? Movies/TV, music, books, perhaps something else? Or have you made some videos in the past about this topic?
Hi Scott. I hate to say it but I agree about Hollyweird. When we were in LA we saw all the usual tourist spots. We were very near Hollywood but no way was I going to waste my time walking through that place. 😊
I get it Scott!! There are a few celebrities I like: the ones you almost never hear about, because they actually want a private life, and the ones who aren't afraid to call out the nastiness of Hollyweird. Ricky Gervais has been a favorite of mine since I saw him in Night at the Museum, and when he roasted Hollweird at the 2020 Golden Globes (I didn't watch it, but heard about it later lol), I became a fan😂 But yes, our differences make the world interesting, and we all have something to contribute to our world❤
❤ Love the way you Make your Gourmet Coffee Recipe! Love you Vidoes, and the way you are ! 🤩Thats why i keep watching!😍 Hollywood is Awsome ,but they make Millions & Billions and they are Actors! 👍✌️👌🤞🙌🙏🌠✨💫🌅🎆🌻🌞🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🤩
i use a cheap coffee mate electric grinder, works great. keep everything as beans until youre ready to make a cup is the best way to get the freshest flavor
It has never occurred to me to compare you to anyone. You've always seemed like a very unique individual to me. And I like that about you. Smile.
You actually make me think of an old dear friend.... someone I often wish was enjoying a more authentic life much like yourself. I appreciate your show. Thanks!

My thoughts exactly..bravo!! My own saying comes to mind.."no one is better than anyone..we are all just different!"

Great to see you this Saturday morning with a hot cup of coffee. Thank you.
I've been wanting to take a drive up to Quilcene ever since you were there. Looks like a great place! ☕🍪💕 Take care Scott
Hi Scott. Have you ever thought about doing voice work? You have such a wonderful, calming voice.
Thanks. Several years ago I signed up with an agency to get voice over work. Never got any work though.
We love you as you are. Simple. Be you.
Yes, you are right. You are you and unique! And I like listening to you. You have a beautiful voice. Your videos are interesting. Thank you for being you! And thank you for being there! best regards, from Paris France.

I cannot agree with you more Scott!! Whether on the topic of brewing coffee or Hollyweird or being compared, I completely agree!!
Another great video!!!! appreciate the honesty! Sending great sipping coffee and positive vibes!
I'm a decaf coffee drinker. Agree it is difficult to find a good decaf. Thank you for the brewing tips!
OH NO, I think I'm guilty. Apologies. You are definitely uniquely and awesomely YOU.. 🐢🐩🐶🐕🌊🌺✨🌈🌙☮️🌻☮️
My German mother and father seen Doris Day , Broadway New York ❤ Lucky me , I was named after her... Que Sera, Sera
Just be you. I’m a 7th child of 9, broke free of that mold in my 20’s. Not easy but love who I am and who I’ve become.
Knowing me, I would get a grinder like that and find a way to rig my cordless drill up to it so it only takes 3 seconds to grind.
That would be easy to do. But I’ve noticed that fast grinding creates heat that damages the flavor of the beans
@@StaticCamperVan Right. It's either that, or I would do something ridiculous like buy one of those industrial grinders like you see in Whole Foods and put it in my van. I was already seriously looking at getting a nut butter grinder like some of the stores have.

It’s all fade. So, wow, I just took up a lot of space here. I am dictating as well so I am sorry if it’s all over the place. But I just wanted to say I really appreciate this video and I think so many of us are going to be responding to you in such a manner that we understand where you’re coming from and and we appreciate you for you. please keep your videos coming out. They really allow us to get to know you better. And we get to see so many places that you share with us that are so beautiful. Like I said, your vibe is very relaxing, mellow and comforting. In this day and age that’s a really hard thing for us to find in this world so if we can keep living vicariously through someone like you, we embrace that. Thank you so much! This was a pretty RAW video… And now, I’m just rambling I suppose… Take care be well and stay with us!💜
I think the most important thing is that YOU don't compare yourself to other people, "Hollyweird" or other. Such a preoccupation can only lead to dissatisfaction because there will always be someone with more money, considered more attractive or successful, etc. And having more of any of these things doesn't necessarily make people happy anyway. Keep doing you! :)
Scott...thank you🎉...thank you. It is getting harder by the day living un a worlrd that is full of judgement, advices that you dont ask for and the comparing issue everybody around others bring out just for them to feel better. I am so happy for you...Living your best life, as a loner but not feeling alone. Thank you. Thst is exactly what I want and need. But right now it is not possible. BLESSINGS.
Hi Scott, great video . And yes , I totally agree with you about Hollywood and celebrities . I’d rather watch your video instead of reading about their lives . 😊
Thanks Scott! ❤❤❤☕️☕️
Cool beans. Agree that what you say re: comparisons is something to really consider for our well being. Glad you shared.
Hi Scott goodmorning hope you have a great breakfast coffee! Enjoy the wonderful weekend ❤
I'm with you on the Hollyweird thing. Unfortunately pop culture is firmly entrenched in seemingly most people. My coworkers will talk about celebrities and sports figures more than they will talk about themselves. I find it very strange. I''m pretty sure my coworkers are human, but sometimes I wonder.
Coffee brewing is science 😂, iam brewing pour over, and using fresh grind to😊.
Thanks for the video, and your wise words.
Mvh Jens.
I'm one that wants to be MYSELF INSTEAD of like someone and everybody else. Be yourself Scott! LOVE that in a person! You're fine the way you are! 🙏❤😉
👍🏻
I'm with you, Scott, on Hollyweird!
Agreed 100%.
I, too, I just wanted to be noted as me. Nothing more, nothing less.
I likewise find the obsession with celebrities and comparing people to others quite ridiculous and annoying.
I so enjoy your video's.
Thanks for sharing.
I would never compare someone with anyone else holly weird or even an athlete. I didn't like growing up when someone would say why aren't you like so. I have never seen why any of those people are so revered when they bleed red and are like others.
good vlog Scott. have a nice day! You are lovable the way you
I'm in total agree that Hollyweird is determined to lead society off the road of realty to fantasy. Nothing like living on the road, and tossing out the source, TV. Then getting refreshing human contact from real people like you Scott.
Hi Scott, Good to see you, your unique self! I so agree. It is scary to me when we put value on "fake" "reality". I love the coffee chats! Coming to you from the beaches of Rhode Island -for today anyway, haha!
Hi Scott I like you more because you are different in a really good way I find you genuine.talking about hollyweird. I’m from London well we have a comedian here called rickie gervase.i think I spelt his name wrong but if you say the name over google& award ceremonies I think you will find him refreshing.i do he’s hilarious the way he talks to the stars.he sertainly brings. them down a peg or two.loved the coffee chat thankyou.
I've learned not to rest my joy on other flawed people's opinions, because they are like bellybuttons. There is only one static camper van man. Enjoy your coffee.
I was raised in a subculture that was big on measuring, comparing and judging. It got ingrained in me. "This thing is like that bad thing, therefore..." "This person is like that good person, therefore..." But after I got out of that group I became more aware I was doing this - a lot. So I've tried to change my ways. Now I know that if someone reminds me of an undesirable person I should keep it to myself.
Thanks Ray
Thanks for reminding the forgotten truths.
I just bought some decaf to drink later in the day. You have inspired me to try decaf.😊
Hey there young Mr. Scott👋 Hope you don't take this the wrong way because I do enjoy your videos. And I understand you are a unique individual. When I first ran across your vids, you did remind me of a mild mannered Clark Kent....and I believe that he too would be disappointed in Hollywood.
Thumbs up, annd have another cup of coffee!😎👍☕️
Scott, I learned some new tips about making a good cup of decaf...thank you. I drink decaf only, so I am always looking for a great tasting decaf...swiss water processed, of course. Maybe you could do a video that shares some of your favorites....so I can order them. I am grateful for you being you....
Actually, the only two decafs that I recommend are this Catkin and the Fogline, that I mentioned. I only talked about the two because they are the only two that I would purchase again.
Weird is saying it politely 🎥
I agree with you totally
Hi scottt my apologies my comments about your sense of humor comparison the reason why I follow you is because you are so unique and I always Enjoy your content. Have a nice evening sir
Hi 👋 hi 👋 Good morning ☀️ I enjoyed our time together this morning. I always love ❤️ a good cup of coffee and a friendly chat 😊 Thanks 🙏🏼 Have a beautiful and blessed weekend 🚐☕️🌮🍊🌻🦋
Im a coffee person! I do understand about coffee. I find my best cup is from the pour over method. Of you're in the California area, try purchasing whole bean coffee from Christopher Bean. Ive never tried the decaf, but the regalar coffee is my definite go to! Wonderful having a cup with you this am! 🌺☕🌺
👋 Scott 😊
Hello
: ) THANKS MUCH for sharing, ENJOY your Coffee : ) ALL the BEST and Cheers : )
I agree. People are good and mean well. I feel that if you live on the street or in a mansion you are still an individual and should be respected as such and treated the same. It’s just culture Scott, the way we are raised and taught but sometimes living life and growing older helps us see there is no divider in who we are as a person rich or poor we still should live one another and each be treated equally. Which means we need to be humble no matter who we are or what kind of life we lead. We are all different yet the same.
You're great just being you! I understand. My mother always said, Why can't you be more like the other kids. I'm the middle child and I told her that I'm damn proud not to be! I turned out to be more successful of all of them. Don't discount people like us. I'm not rich by any means. Just content with myself and my life.
Agree with everything you said !
Just tried Purity decaf, free of glyphosate/mold. Doesn’t really need cream it’s so good!
Regarding coffee grind size: I use a hand grinder as well, an 1Zpresso JX, but I determine the proper grind setting by how fast the coffee pushes through the paper filter of my AeroPress. I notice that some coffees, particularly the darker roasts and decafs, crumble into powder that clogs my filter. For these I prefer to back-off on the grind size so I don't have to push as hard or wait as long for the extraction chamber to empty. I don't use the upside down method like you do, but I do stir vigorously two or three times during the 2 minute brew time. And yes, I do adjust my water temperature for light or dark roast coffee as you explained in the video. Thanks for sharing!
Good method. I’ve heard nothing but great reviews about 1Zpresso grinders
Just be you, that is good enough.
You are unique! 🙂
Your heard Scott!! ❤❤❤
OMG! Thx Scott! We too have felt this way all our life. We don't, never, ever have looked up to these people on their pedestals. We too don't understand really why, perhaps we are just too practical and can see through their veneer of crap. We were offered one explanation by our grandmother - that was that we were 'jealous' of the elites. No, that didn't sit with us at all. Grandmother used to put on airs and graces when she dragged us along to church; it seemed so superficial and actually surreptitious to us, not to mention exhausting all that acting out she was doing in front of her 'friends'. We also had the same outlook on grades - given an IQ test (one of the early ones, we're 70 now), we were put in a particular learning stream 'for our own good' while we had to sit in crappy (our view, maths, english lit, bookkeeping etc. etc.) classes watching the kids in other streams doing what we wanted. More than anything that solidified the feelings against the ones who thought they were better than us. The principal who made the decision that we reckon set us back educationally for decades, thought he was one of those elites, which quite frankly pissed us off a great deal. Anyway, the last day of school with him was a purler. The Maori boys couldn't stand him either and they took his Mini Minor car, lifted it up from its parking place and put it in a high bed of pansies. We were watching this, and we can tell you, it sure as hell felt good inside , fell apart at the seams laughing, we did ... How the hell that principal got that car out of there beats me; we got on the bus and left laughing with the boys. Oh well, such is life...
I agree with you all the way Scott.
❤ Any way Scott Love watching your Adventures and will see you on the next 1 🙏🙌🇺🇸🇺🇸🤩🌻🌞
Ok, this is going to be long. Sorry. 1) I watch you because you are different from everyone else. I HATE coffee yet find myself listening to you for hours. Your voice and conversation are calming and comforting. 2) I’m happy you brought this up. I am in a group and this last week we had a very rousing discussion about “normal”. What is it, who decides what isn’t normal and why we don’t want to be normal. I believe people fear what they don’t understand therefore they bully, harass and sometimes physically harm people they deem different. It’s a very interesting conversation and I thank you for talking about it. 3) who the hell do people compare you too. I think of myself as a fairly socially aware person but I can’t see anyone but Scott the Static Campervan guy. Thanks for what you do.
Not to worry Static, you don’t remind me of any of them Hollywood Weirdos. Just my uncle Doug. Just kidding. Just one you 😊
Hey 👋🏻 Scott 🥰☕️🎉❤😊
Hello

We all have Great Gifts & we are Gods Children ⭐✨💫🌻🤩🙌🙏🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲
☕️👍😊
Comparisons to others and hollyweirds is just vacuous piffle. Your coffee drinking /advice is an Art form. Thank you for the education. Love and respect from here in Australia.
Shallow people are fascinated by Shallower people. Wiser people avoid both.
I’m amazed that I’ve have found someone that thinks like me…..I’ve seen people “kiss up” to people of whom people hold up because they are wealthy or even when someone is attractive…just can’t enjoy know me for who I am…I have always found the strange myself….oh well they will never change..
Your a coffee connoisseur!! I value your opinions on all things coffee related.
I will admit, over the last few months I have grown a severe disdain for HollyWierd as well, that’s all I’ll say about that.
Stay calm and YellowBird on.
Hey Scott, I was curious about what kind of hobbies/activities you do inside the van? Movies/TV, music, books, perhaps something else? Or have you made some videos in the past about this topic?
Coffee is my main hobby. But I prefer to be outside. Walking is my favorite activity
Hi Scott. I hate to say it but I agree about Hollyweird. When we were in LA we saw all the usual tourist spots. We were very near Hollywood but no way was I going to waste my time walking through that place. 😊
Oh you're unique alright
In a good way 😜
I get it Scott!! There are a few celebrities I like: the ones you almost never hear about, because they actually want a private life, and the ones who aren't afraid to call out the nastiness of Hollyweird. Ricky Gervais has been a favorite of mine since I saw him in Night at the Museum, and when he roasted Hollweird at the 2020 Golden Globes (I didn't watch it, but heard about it later lol), I became a fan😂
But yes, our differences make the world interesting, and we all have something to contribute to our world❤
❤ Love the way you Make your Gourmet Coffee Recipe! Love you Vidoes, and the way you are ! 🤩Thats why i keep watching!😍 Hollywood is Awsome ,but they make Millions & Billions and they are Actors! 👍✌️👌🤞🙌🙏🌠✨💫🌅🎆🌻🌞🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🤩
i use a cheap coffee mate electric grinder, works great. keep everything as beans until youre ready to make a cup is the best way to get the freshest flavor
To of the morn’n to you. At least this morning here for about 20 minutes more lol
