UK - Aeropress ground coffee recommendations

I work from home. During the week, I've been using Lavazza Rossa for as long as I can remember for my daily brew in my Aeropress. In the past, this has been a perfectly acceptable caffeine hit to suit my daily routine.

I've noticed that the quality of Lavazza Rossa seems to have dropped off significantly. Quite often tasting harsh or bitter. I suspect this is down to them reducing the quality of the beans, I'm not entirely sure.

I used to buy all 1 kg / month ( I didn't always use that much) from Discount Coffee online until I discovered that Tesco is cheaper with Club card.

Can anyone recommend a decent ground coffee as I'm really not enjoying the Lavazza coffee any more.

I'm not concerned if it's an online store or Tesco. I just want something that tastes good in the Aeropress.

Weekend is a different ball game as I buy beans from my local whole foods shop.

Thanks

Energy Dashboard - Now (Current Power Flow)

Is there a minimum power requirement for devices to show up on the Now flow?

I have quite a few low power devices on Shelly Smart Plugs that never show in the flow even though they show in the Energy Dashboard.

If there is a minimum, I kind of understand that. However, it would be great to be able to turn that off.

Ongoing issues with Meross MS605 Matter/Thread

I've commented previously in other posts regarding these Meross mmWave sensors. Specially randomly dropping offline, sometimes for minutes, sometimes for hours.

I have two of these. They both drop offline. I also have 3 IKEA MYGGBETT window sensors. These never drop offline. Gateway is ZBT-2.

The latest fiasco, today, is the one in the downstairs WC, although showing as online is not reporting presence.

I will be replacing these with Aqara FP300's next month as I've had enough of these things. I already have two on Zigbee, and they have been spot on.

I'm simply posting as a heads-up if you are considering getting a battery mmWave sensor.

Willow Water

I'm trying my first attempt at making Willow Water.

1/3 small green willow stems cut to 1" lengths steeped in 2/3 water.

This has been steeping for about a day so far. According to Google, this should be ready to use in about another 2-3 days.

My question:

When i come to putting cuttings into it, do I use as is, or do I dilute the Willow Water?

If dilute, buy how much?

Is anyone else not getting a lot of channels today?

We seem to have lost all ITVchannels & Film 4. Channel 4 is breaking up badly.
