I’ll pay more attention to this great explanation of bitter vs sour to try and figure it out. What’s weird is we visited a local coffee house yesterday and I ordered an espresso and it was worse tasting than ours at home lol

Top tips. AND I would personally add the number one tip: cleaning your gear. If your coffee taste is getting worse over time then you’re missing out on cleaning your coffee machine and grinder. So: - clean your grinder regularly - clean your portafilter - clean your brewgroup - use a waterfilter if necessary

Great video AJ. I like the systematic way you go through each variable, best video I saw on this topic. Few years ago I installed a PID in my Silvia and it was a game changer in terms of adding consistency to the process. I also kept detailed note book listing all variables, such as grind size, timing, etc etc for the various coffees I use. This might seem over the top for some folks, but it's fun to me, and now I can diagnose issues pretty quickly when I'm trying a new coffee bean. And coffee bean is the one thing that will constantly change, no two bags of coffee are ever the same. Cheers.
@Wholelattelovepage
@Wholelattelovepage 2 жыл бұрын
With the level some people go to, that doesn't seem over the top at all. It actually sounds like a nice way of tracking your process and preferences. True that no two bags will be identical, but at least now you can reference your past experiences and get in the ballpark. AJ

Great video AJ. Very thorough. Could you and/or Mark revisit some flow control topics in the future? Loving my Synchronika with FC, but I notice some odd extractions at times-e.g. sometimes the 1/4-1/2 extraction will run faster than a regular 1 1/4 with preinfusion. Seems counterintuitive to me…
@Wholelattelovepage
@Wholelattelovepage 2 жыл бұрын
Hey Spencer, there will be more flow control videos coming eventually. I will say though that shot timing kind of goes out the window when flow profiling. Your example does sound counterintuitive, but I've experienced it myself before as well. The best explanation I've heard is that the low flow gently and evenly saturates the puck, allowing for degassing and expansion of the grounds in a more natural way. Full flow/pressure right out of the gate, especially on a rotary pump machine that ramps up quickly (pretend you didn't do a pre-infusion), can force fines to the bottom and almost "clog" the holes in your basket. The abrupt pressure could also be "re-tamping" your espresso and compacting it further, slowing the flow through the puck. AJ

I recently got the Gaggia Classic Pro, which I immediately fitted with a PID controller. The grinder I have is the Niche Zero. Using a grind size that makes sense (very close to what I used with the DeLonghi Dedica) makes the extraction time extremely fast (36g out in mere 6 seconds). The only way I managed to overcome this is by reducing the grind size all the way to Zero! I feel like something is wrong but I couldn't put my finger on it. 😢
@Wholelattelovepage
@Wholelattelovepage Жыл бұрын
Hi MT, So ya, that's way too fast! I know they advertise that grinder as espresso capable but for a number of reasons it's not one I'd ever recommend for espresso. As you've found it does not have the precision needed. Perhaps there's something wrong with the grinder. Any decent espresso grinder should be able to grind fine enough to choke (cause no flow) a machine. Understand your Dedica (unless you modified) uses a pressurized filter basket. In those, it's the restriction of the filter basket which controls flow rate and not the grind size of the coffee. When using the standard non-pressurized filter basket on the Gaggia Classic Pro the grind size creates the restriction and controls flow rate. You must get the grind size right to enjoy the better espresso made using a non-pressurized filter basket.

Excellent video - as a strictly espresso (never milk or sugar) drinker sometimes a lungo sometimes a standard, I have never had a consistent coffee with crema - flavour has always been 'bright' or in my flavour expression sour and on occasion burnt or woody - now I know why: - grind, bean freshness and/or arabica blend, water temperature. If I could sit near the barista watching the extraction I would glean the fact that 90% of them in cafes don't know how to make a good espresso - their mistakes well hidden in milky coffees which the majority prefer and cannot discern when they drown their beverage in sugar. Thank you for a very instructive, constructive, clearly explained tutorial

When new to the espresso world, you will go thru a lot of beans to find what works best. Document your weight and grind along with the timing. You will get it the more you do it. Try to stick with a certain bean roast and focus on that before you jump to another. Coffee beans are all different and you will learn that thru that process. Take your time and enjoy it. Its definitely a hobby if you want it to be! Cheers!

I just recently got myself a Eureka Mignon Silenzio grinder and am still in the process of experimenting with different grind levels. Taste-wise, so far not too bad but videos like this explain perfectly why I'm not quite there yet. Practice, practice, practice! The only other thing I'm having difficulty with is trying to get good microfoam using Oatly Barista milk with my Gaggia Classic Pro. More practice is needed I think! Great video!

Great video with helpful answers. Other videos are often lengthy and don’t get to the point, heck often don’t even provide an answer. Question: what’s a good amount of coffee for a single shot?
@Wholelattelovepage
@Wholelattelovepage Жыл бұрын
Hi fL, Thanks for the comment and question. Traditional Italian singles use 7g of ground coffee but there are single basket which accommodate 10g. If you see an impression of the shower screen in your puck after an extraction you've dosed too much coffee. For coffee out traditional ration is 1:2 so for a 7g dose you're looking for 14g by weight in your cup but you can change the ratio to your flavor preference.

@@Wholelattelovepage This is super helpful! Thanks for sharing! Now that explains why Italian espressos are so tiny, hence 7g → 14g. I think my basket is designed for 9g, but I need to add 10-11g to properly tamper it without gaps. So I will basically just aim for 2x output :)

I just got back into Espresso. My machine came with a bottomless filter basket with a 28g filter. Some of my shot problems may be due to the huge basket. Just switched back to more normal size. I am using the Ceado E64 grinder purchased from you. Flavor is good but I know it can be better. Machine is Crossland CC1 new PID with 3 separate customizable programs plus steam.

Hi S, Thanks for the comment and your patronage. Wow 28g is huge - like a quad shot! Ceado E5P/E6P grinders with 64mm burrs are excellent grinders.
