My mixer and grain mill allow me to make 100% whole wheat organic bread for about $0.50 a loaf. I have been using my gear for 25 years; I considered it a buy it for life purchase.
A tablet + a server running plex.
Replaces a TV, DVD player, Hulu, Netflix, Amazon et al accounts. Provides tons of entertainment when at home and when traveling.
Sleep Stuff
Personally I think there's really no proper way to value a good night's sleep. After years of dealing with poor sleep due to breathing problems in a dry climate and living with obnoxious neighbors whose religion prohibits using headphones figuring out some cheap solutions to my sleep issues has yielded immeasurable quality of life improvements.
Nasal dialaters.
I was having a lot of problems sleeping due to narrow nasal pathways + seasonal changes and my BP was off the charts. The quality of life improvement from quality sleep is hard to quantify as a value.
[Really comfy sleep masks.] (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00FJQFJX8/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&th=1)
The inner lining on these ones reliably peels off for me but I still use mine and I think I could put these on 1 mile from the sun and not see light.
Super comfortable noise canceling ear buds
I have a ridiculously loud 300lb stomping upstairs neighbor who enjoys putting together furniture at 3am due to either meth or sleep apnea or both. He also really enjoys his shitty 1990s R&B. I've had several confrontations and he's changed some of it but you can't request someone not walk around their apartment when they want. I think he has knee problems so his steps are really heavy. These things are the best answer I could find. If I put these on + a TV show it drowns him out. It sucks to rely on noise to cancel out other noise but I love these things, they're super comfortable and they do the job I need.
Coffee Stuff
GeneCafe Coffee Roaster
So I'm the sort of person who is willing to spend the right amount of money when there's value. For me roasting my own coffee provides tons of value. For starters you can order green beans online for $3-5 a lb. I order 6+ months worth of coffee at a time for around $100, give or take. This roaster has now paid for itself compared to buying coffee at my favorite roaster and is in line with the stale, burnt tasting shit you can buy in giant vats at the grocery store.
But beyond just that I get the supreme joy of truly fresh roasted coffee roasted to a level I like which is a lot different than the black and greasy shit you'll get at Kroger's or whatever. I also love that I can bring this is going to be useful if/when I'm living on a homestead somewhere.
Stainless Steel French Press
Goes with the above. I used to buy glass ones and break them, but this $40 french press will probably last for a very long time with only the screen to worry about replacing and god only knows how long that will take.
[Rough Bur Grinder] (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001804CLY/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1)
I really enjoy replacing electronic equipment with stuff I can power with elbow grease. It's not much of a workout, but it's quieter and still does the same job as the electric one I had purchased and unless other electric ones I'm not sure this one will ever break. My previous ones would break/clog constantly, this one has been trucking without issue for a year and I suspect will last several.
No joke - they are the same thing. .01% of people will ever taste the difference between the brands you posted.
Go steel if you can. Again, glass and stainless steel are the same thing, but steel lasts forever.
I've used this daily for a few years now. 0 complaints, and it was one of the cheaper steel models I've found.
I am a 3 time a day user for medical reasons. I use this https://www.amazon.com/KitchenAid-BCG111OB-Blade-Coffee-Grinder/dp/B003WIZ5PC/ref=mp_s_a_1_3?keywords=kitchenaid+coffee+grinder&qid=1562701281&s=gateway&sprefix=Kitchen+aid+coffee+&sr=8-3

If I can just add on a food mill question for anyone reading this, are you talking about this kind of gadget or something more?
My bud uses this and it works great

Thinking of getting one of the electric grinder/mincer/stuffer like this: Homeleader Meat Grinder Mincer, Sausage Stuffer, 800W https://www.amazon.com/dp/B06XPB3QLM/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_F7ZBzbFGQVS59
Very thoughtful gift, what has your husband been making?
> So...snuscentral claims a tin of General Mint White contains 24g of tobacco. A pound is 454 g. So...if I bought a pound of tobacco from your linked website, it should make roughly 19 cans of snus, no?
Well, not exactly. If the can contains 24 g of snus, I would assume that is a can of portion snus. With loose snus, the cans used to contain 40g of snus. Now, some cans of loose only contain 37 g of snus. I define a 'can of snus' as equal to 40 grams of snus, using the old measure of the contents of a can of loose snus.
A pound of tobacco, assuming one INCLUDES stems, would equal 448 grams of tobacco (16 ounces x 28 grams per ounce). Since snus is 50% water (roughly, I'll come back to this momentarily), then a pound of tobacco would make 896 grams of snus. So a pound of tobacco would make 22.4 cans, each containing 40 grams of snus. Roughly, a pound of tobacco is enough to make two rolls of snus.
However, this isn't as exact as it sounds. In my experience since the first of the year, I am getting roughly 3 cans of snus out of 50 grams of tobacco. The recipes call for 50 grams of tobacco & 60 ml (grams) of water. This alone is 110 grams. You must dilute the soda ash in water. I dilute it in 10ml (grams.) So now we are at 120 grams of finished product, which is exactly 3 40 gram cans of snus. Don't forget though, we have to add the glycerine to that, which is almost another 10 grams. I'm not sure what happened with my maryland puro. I somehow managed to get almost 4 cans out of 50 grams of tobacco. Due to the high stem content of maryland tobacco, I had to add more water than usual, which is probably why I got 4 cans from 50 grams.
>Oh, do you know if a coffee grinder will grind fine enough?
I use two different grinders, one of which was thrifted. For the stems, use a grinder similar to this. (Don't buy new. I see these at thrift stores ALL of the time.) I break the stems (only the middle stem, aka mid-rib) into 1 inch pieces after stripping the leaves. Then I run them through a grinder of this type. The point here is to prepare the stems for the next grinder.
I grind the leaves in this. If you notice the center silver dial with dots on it, that dial can be turned to 'fine,' which is the setting I use. I also grind the stems in this one, after running through the first grinder. I then use a large kitchen strainer to sift the tobacco flour. What doesn't pass through the strainer goes back into this grinder. Repeat until everything passes through the strainer.
I have this sonofabitch. The thing kicks ass.

I was looking for pour overs that specifically were filter-less for the reasoning of: more eco-friendly and more cost-effective for not having to buy filters every time. I chose that brand after researching different ones on Amazon, looking at reviews, etc. That one had the best reviews and seemed to be sufficient. Do you think otherwise?
My budget is somewhere around $100-$125
Here is the one I have in my Amazon cart:

Finalizing my shopping list to move from 1 gallon to 2.5-3 gallon batches, BIAB, all to be done on my condo glasstop stove. Can anyone tell me if I'm missing anything on my shopping list?
5 Gal Kettle w/ thermometer and valve
Hose Barb Fitting
Elbow Barb Fitting for bottling (assuming I use my kettle as a bottling bucket)
Fresh Grain Bag
Grain Mill to replace Corona Mill
3 Gal Carboy (or should I get a 5 gallon bucket? Or something else?)
Hose for clean transfer to fermenter
Wort Chiller (and all the necessary plumbing to add a t bar and valve to my kitchen sink)
I have a larger auto-siphon (although I'd rather find something else - I hate auto siphons) to rack to a bottling bucket.
What am I missing? Do I need a false bottom?
Thanks!
actually this works. gets you really high. you'll want to first dry it out for 2-3 weeks. then you've got to grind it, which you'll want to use somethign like this https://www.amazon.com/Chinese-Medicine-Electric-Pulverizer-Certification/dp/B01MG2FEGE. then you'll need to find a glass pipe to smoke it with. Then the most important step - that almost everyone does wrong, and why nobody thinks carrots get you high - is you've got to smoke the bowl using your anus. yep, just put it up there and pucker-up. You'll probably need your boy to light the bowl tho. no homo, no homo. good luck, OP!
Not really.
My dad uses something like this. It's heavy as balls and it's a real workout to use, but there are electric ones and you can get a drill adapter for a 1/2" drill if you prefer.
Yeah I am crushing my own grains and my crusher I bought isn't the greatest. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B014M8WS14/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I may head up to the LBH and by a kit and use their crusher. That might be the big factor.
I just looked it up on Amazon, and the US version says it has a 1600W hearing element.
Here is the link.
can't go wrong with a box of these http://www.amazon.com/Pure-Hemp-Cigarette-25-Booklets/dp/B00DCCR55G/
i'm not to sure about a rolling machine but with that many papers who really cares right?
My recommendation is to get this meat grinder because it can handle decent sized bones, and then go down to your local asian grocery store and pick up a bunch of chicken wings, salmon heads, a beef liver, some chicken hearts & gizzards, & some shrimp. Go home and grind it all up under the finest settings of the grinder, and then baggy/freeze a bunch of meal sized portions.
When you feed: thaw out a baggie, mix in a little extra calcium powder (no D3) just to be safe, add a little cod liver oil, and mix in some diced fruit. It will mimic a varied diet of whole prey, and he/she will gobble it up like there is no tomorrow.
