...and...
Excellent news...that looks miles better (y)...time to enjoy your coffee :coffee:
-
Everything is resolved! I got my replacement machine from Coffee addicts, night & day difference! Now this is what a new machine should...
-
Im not sure what you mean by that?
I've never purchased a new machine let alone returned one before. So this is new for me. I just went...
-
So I did end up sending back the GCP to Amazon. It was a long wait for them to return the funds and then they marked the machine up to...
-
Ok, thanks for the reply. I was getting so hung up on the timing being perfect. Guess I'll stop worrying about it so much!
-
If it tasted good, it didn't take too long 😀
Lots of folk have had tasty 40, or 50 second shots.
Time is such a poor indicator of...
-
I agree, it was a dismissive response. I am a little upset to pay full price for something that may have been used previously or just...
-
That's a fairly dismissive response from Gaggia. But that's not the point, good coffee is the point and I get a sense that you're chill...
-
Heard back from Gaggia must have been sold a used machine because I know I never put anything like that group head. My window is closing...
-
I’d say that’s perhaps the issue. On the basis the dose could go up .9g before it clicks over to the next figure, that could have a big...
-
My mini scale is 0.1g but not my larger portafilter scale. I'll check out some threads but likely order another off Amazon.
-
Even if you did move one click coarser or finer (I have no experience with that grinder) it's a huge difference, so I'm not entirely...
-
Thanks for all the pointers, I really appreciate it!
I didn't think I went finer on my grinder...so that's where I'm getting confused...
-
Nice! (y)
Compared to the shot 2 quotes above (17g in 28g out In 30ish seconds), the reason you are having differing tasting shots is...
-
The round mini scale failed on my most recent sub optimal shot so I didn't get the weight (see video).
The only reason I changed the...
-
Just pulled this shot (see video) Only change from the previous one was 1 click coarser with the 1zpresso JMAX and Using the mini scale...
-
My scales don't work well on the GCP. The numbers usually jump around, freeze or just shut off. So I've just been weighing the cup on my...
-
Stopping the pour short will give a sweeter more syrupy / viscous shot. =. taste rules over time .
-
Pulled another shot this evening and it was the best tasting yet. I do think it's a bit slow now so I'll go 1 click coarser tmrw. This...
-
I had similar concerns as the O.P. but not as much of an issue with vibration.
My solution was to fabricate an aluminum tray to support...
-
That pour is looking pretty good. How big (weight) is your coffee ? It may pay you to decant when you initially open it and divide...
-
Not the best workflow. I'm not used to making videos so hopefully it's not too terrible. Same grinder setting as last time. It wasn't...
-
Ok thanks so much. I think I'm just trying too many things at once. I really need to get a solid workflow down. I'm waiting for a new...
-
You need to sort out a routine that you are happy with and stick to it, dialling in from that - as an example I do the standard: 17g in...
-
Thanks for the reply!
I usually weigh the grounds on my mini scale in the 1zpresso cup before & after I grind. I then use the larger...
