“An Eighth Amendment claim has two components — objective and subjective. To satisfy the objective component, “the deprivation alleged must be objectively, ‘sufficiently serious.’ ” Henderson v. Sheahan, 196 F.3d 839, 845 (7th Cir.1999) (citing Farmer v. Brennan, 511 U.S. 825, 834 , 114 S.Ct. 1970 , 128 L.Ed.2d 811 (1994)). “Therefore, ‘extreme deprivations are required to make out a conditions-of-confinement claim’ ” Id. (quoting Hudson v. McMillian, 503 U.S. 1, 9 , 112 S.Ct. 995 , 117 L.Ed.2d 156 (1992)).”
