1:15 Hi, I have few questions. Shouldn’t you stop at 25 or less grams to have 28 g in the cup? Right now I see that you got 33.2 g which not actual 1:2 ratio. When you stop at 28 g isn’t still extracting as liquid is still running to your cup? Also, about 1:2 ratio and time for 14 g coffee. Should it also be 25-30 s? I saw a lot of videos and read articles, but most of them were using 18-20 g of coffee and were suggesting 25-30 s. So I wonder if time should be the same or shorter for 14 g. Thanks in advance! :}

@TomsCoffeeCorner Жыл бұрын
Hi there! Yes, you could stop in advance. I just try to switch the cups out quickly. You can still attain a 2:1 ratio with 14 grams, but only if you are using fresh beans and grind fine enough. In the meantime however, I am using the Dedica with about 16 grams, and aiming for 30-35g out. Cheers!

This video is very helpful. Thanks Tom! Your channel is the go to place for Delonghi Dedica Users. I had a few questions though if you would be kind enough to answer it 1. What is the exact extraction time for the 14g bottomless shot? 2. My Bottomless portafilter basket has a lot of space left between the tamped coffee and the brim when I’m pulling out 14g shots. Whereas, with 18g it fills up appropriately. Would this space affect the quality of the shot? Also, Can you please make a video for single shots (7-10g) for the Delonghi Dedica with the bottomless portafilter?

Hi there! Thank you for your kind feedback. I would say to aim for 25-30 seconds for a double, including preinfusion. A single will probably be shorter to pull.

@TomsCoffeeCorner Жыл бұрын
Hi! A double is traditionally 14-16 grams, but it really has to do with volume. You need to fill the basket and tamp it, so that there is still a few mm of head space above the puck. This generally translates to 14-16 grams, depending on the roast. Cheers! PS - I start counting my shot when pressing the button, since that is when the process starts, and when the coffee puck starts absorbing the brew water.

Hi, Tom. I hope you will read it :-) First, I am impressed by your knowledge and time dedicated to run this channel, stunning! It made me buy Dedica 685 plus metal nozzle for improving steam wand and, at last, NPF to see those beautiful tiger strips on liquid running into a cup. As I am waiting for the delivery I got a question. Your espressos look beautiful, you mentioned you worked on pro machines, so how good espresso could Dedica made if everything is done as it should be? Would you compare it somehow to espressos done by pro machines you used to work with? Will shots from De'Longhi make smile on my face by feeling something extraordinary in my mouth? Or rather the shots from 685 won't be in any way comparable and not even close to those produced by, at least say: Gaggia Classic, Rancilio Silvia, Lelit Anna? Thanks for your reply, my best regards to you.

@TomsCoffeeCorner 2 жыл бұрын
Hi there! Well, I think you need to put things into perspective. In the EU, the Dedica only costs €150. For that price point and a couple of mods, it provides a very good result. You will probably need to surf a little with the steam mode hack, to get the temp up. I have used Dalle Corte machines, costing more than my car. Those provided of course better espresso. But you have to consider that those machines run 12 hours a day, so they are at perfect temperature, along with their pre-warmed cups, they have a consistent workflow (temp and pressure curves), and the espresso beans were top notch. To render the situation, I do not think that a GCP or Silvia, which cost 3x more, make 3x better espresso. You will have to experiment for yourself. Cheers! Tom

Hi tom, thank tou so much for your videos I’m learing a lot from you 😀 I have a question about volume setting for dedica arte machine. I’ve set the volume about 30g with 15-16g of coffee beans manually and followed the exact same procedure, but whenever I checked the extracted amount with another shot after I programmed, It’s always 39g or even 41g🥲 so it basically has no point of setting the volume. Do you have any advice on this? And I also wonder if it works exactly the same as you set when you pull another shot

Hello Hesham, this is pretty heavily debated. Some say first drop, others say when the pump turns on. The important thing is to be in the ballpark (25-35 seconds let’s say), and it should be reproducible. Also, you have to trust your taste buds as well. The espresso taste will ultimately tell you if the espresso was over (bitter) or under (sour) extracted. Cheers ☕️ Tom

Hey Omar, thanks for the good question. 1) I only have the 1 hole tip, so I cannot comment on the 3 hole tip. But my experience with other machines is that the 3 hole tip will be faster at steaming. 2) As you probably know, the most important thing to do after adding a bit of air in the milk, is to get the milk SWIRLING. To do this, try placing the tip of the steam wand JUST under or at the surface of the milk, really CLOSE to the edge of the pitcher. Try adjusting the angle of the pitcher to the steam wand too, to get the swirl going. Once you get a swirl, don't change the angle, just keep the swirl going. *I will probably soon make a video with the mod, how to steam milk with the Rancilio wand. Happy coffee drinking!

Hi, i have neruza bottomless portafilter and ims 16-18 gr basket. I grind fine enough but whenever i shot its 17 gr btw, i got only black bitter coffee around 20 second. No crema like this. What am i doing wrong? I have very good espresso with default pressured double basket. I put 13 grams in get 30 ml with full crema. I need some help with nonpressure bottemless basket.

The perfect shot doesn’t exists, individual tastes are different. Italian espresso recipe is a marketing strategy, without any logical criteria to justify. How many people goes crazy with this idealistic coffees where have been proven dozens of times that is better to variate the ingredients of no matter the food or beverage to adapt for individual’s satisfaction…
