I have noticed depending on how quickly you're taking out the group handle after extraction is also a factor too fast after extraction finishes water will still be on top of the pick, roughly 3-5 seconds after it's usually dry

I use a Flair, so always have a dry puck. The main failure I struggled with was the puck not being a uniform thickness. This would show up in the flavor and strength of the extraction. I finally figured out that it came from the density of the coffee not being uniform before tamping. Using a spinny thing can help with that but produces a shear line in the puck integrity which can lesson extraction. Also, if the low density was below the grounds that the spinny thing moves, it did not fix the issue. WDT does not fix this issue either. I would not even know that was my issue if I had a wet puck.

mmmm suprised the WDT doesn't help. Hopefully you're happy with the end outcome.

@@ArtistiCoffeeRoasters With the Flair I get a dry puck and can inspect the coffee distribution in the puck and where coffee was extracted in the puck. If the coffee put into the puck is not evenly distributed, including density, voids, and volume then a WDT does not fix it. I have time efficient ways to ensure that none of these happen that are way better than a Weber shaker and an expensive grinder. The only time I use WDT these days is if the coffee is grossly uneven at the surface of the puck, and that hardly ever. WDT can produce holes running through the length of the puck if done poorly which introduces channeling. My house is at 50% humidity, and I also have no issues with static, without spritzing. I am starting to suspect that a lot of information being given to consumer coffee makers (not cafes) is to sell stuff rather than teach them how to make a nice espresso. I see no reason for a properly trained cafe to WDT. I am not talking about your channel here, BTW, which I find very interesting.

I am 100% agreed with your comments and suggestions. I owned a Breville Bambino Plus espresso machine. Often we are seeing puck was stuck on the grouphead most of the time. There are numerous factors that causing this. First, we need to perform regular grouphead maintenance, despite that the machine will promoting you for maintenance, but it is always a good practice to perform more regular maintenance that being defined by the machine. Based on my years of experience with this machine, although this machine has 3 way solenoid valve, but it doesn't really help much. So, my solution is, the moment machine produce the last drop of the coffee, you need to pull out the basket immediately, which means the machine hasn't completely suck back the water. This way you won't get puck stuck on the grouphead. I had tried many times, most of the time i don't have any issues.

Very thankful for your videos. There's no specialty coffee where I live and no access to practice or education so I literally only have KZbin. I've CONSISTENTLY had issues with my picks being soupy, having a screen screw indent in the top, and puck floating no matter if I had a 21g dose or a 16 g dose. Just started using a puck screen which has helped improve the taste drastically. But I cannot get a sweet coffee for my life and it's so infuriating. I don't know if I should start by picking a random ration (1:2 right now) or if I should decide my ratio by something else, or if I should attempt something new? I've been trying all kinds of recipes. Where do I begin when trying to decide our cafe recipe? All our baristas just hit the button and dial into the time I tell them and I preset everything for them to follow. I just don't know which direction to run.

Great advice thanks. I know my beans are definitely within the roasting date that you specify. However, I usually store them in the freezer, only to take them out to use what I need for the day, pushing the air out of the resealable bag, then quickly returning them to the freezer. What are your thoughts on this practice.
@ArtistiCoffeeRoasters2 ай бұрын
The best way to freeze coffee is to freeze individual doses. So get small containers, portion your dose into these, then only take out what you need and grind it frozen through a single dose grinder. Pulling the bag out everyday will still create condensation adding moisture back into the beans, not ideal.

I read somewhere it can but from my experience no. Crema is a result of pressure through gas filled coffee. So it’s likely connected to my first point about using fresh coffee.

I got myself a new naked portafilter and 18-20gr competition basket from ECM. I feel like it’s more a 20-22gr basket. I struggle if I only put 18gr in it. With 19gr. and a puck screen the puck is wet and the screen sticks to the puck quite a bit.

Medium to dark roasts need the extra dose I feel. Lighter roasts are better with low doses because of the slower solubility of the coffee. Try that next time.

Not sure if this is a grind issues, dose issue, or water pressure issue. I believe the bar pressure on my machine is only about 15 any tips?
