inHeads up, my project quote acceptance rate just hit 92% this quarter and I'm kinda shocked.
Yeah, the "pricing too low" fear is real. I got past it by adding a clear breakdown of what each dollar buys them in the quote. It turns a price into a plan, and clients say yes way more often.

inJust hit 500 bottom bracket replacements in my shop log
That "15 full tubes of grease" line really hits home. We saw the same spike and started using a threadlocker and grease mix on every press fit install, no exceptions. It cut our comeback rate for creaks by more than half last season. The extra minute it takes to clean and prep the shell is worth it when the bike doesn't come back in two months.

inTried making cold brew with pickle juice instead of water... it did not go well.
Actually, I've seen it work fine with cold brew. The acidity isn't that different from some fancy coffee notes. Elliot_hall62 is right about the sludge with hot coffee, but cold changes the game. It's a weird salty kick that's not for everyone, but it's not always a mistake.
