As a nurse, I can tell you what my first thought was, but no (also walnut would be a terrible material for that).

      That’s a valid argument, you’re right.

      Those things normally are the size of a small sauce dish. We use them to measure small amounts of coffee beans to make a single or a double shot of espresso (I’m measuring 18 grams for a double). The sprayer is the size of a small lighter. Measuring individual portions enables us to change beans in between and prevents a large stash to degrade in contract with oxygen.

      We’re admittedly a big over the top, but it’s a fun hobby and makes some really tasty cups on top.

        Tbh I’ve never seen greater or more intricate feats of engineering than those inspired by the consumption of habit-forming substances. As a psych nurse I encourage you to thank whatever you believe causes the world to turn for the things you are addicted to that are legal.
