Mini Gaggia + Lelit PL043 - lovely espresso shot in the office

Used 16 grams of coffee. Paper filter prevents grounds going up to the piston, and helps to even the flow. I cut the filter myself out of coffee paper filter.

Das Video ist klasse, macht richtig Spaß zu zuschauen. 😊

In den Boiler, ich werde es auch damit versuchen ! Vielen Dank

Best way I've found to clear out the last bit of grinds is to lift the lid of the hopper, and close it with a decisive motion, and the vacuum will push out most stuck grounds, if not all.

Haha with the cups of "super yoda"

Das mit dem Papier Filter ist eine super Idee, bei mir wird manchmal der Kaffee Satz zurück gezogen in den Bile

Y el agua por donde lo alimentas ? sin agua no hay cafe

Nice shot ! How do you control the temperature ? Cause the temperature fluctuates a lot with the thermostat.

[@orishechter1]

I did not get deep into heat control yet. I measured the temperture to be 95 right after the thermostat stops the heating. And it's consistent. I brew right after the thermostat stops the heating. Frankly I do feel sometimes like the shot is over heated, but that taste might be related to some other factor

@@orishechter1 Thanks ! I got one of these, and I think I've got to change the thermostat to a higher value. Cause, It stops before even reaching 90. Paper filter idea is a nice one as well.

[@orishechter1]

@@murataht Yeah, I believe the recommended temp is between 93 and 96. It's a nice little machine and I enjoy the coffee. Good luck with yours

@@orishechter1 thanks.

How’s the fred grinder going? Just bought one purely for espresso.

[@orishechter1]

I find it produces lovely espresso shots, with good chcolate flavor and a good variey of notes

[@8484davide]

Ciao che tipo di caffè usi e che grado di macinatura?

[@mrpadey91]

What is the highest pressure this machine can produce?

[@MrMarki134]

The default spring will produce a bit under 6 bar, like many home spring levers (i.e. elektra mcal, Olympia SL...)
