    [LEFT] Next one same thing over and over again. Doesn't make sense. So some button fault or dodgy pump action might account for it so do try the double button. - Yes - channelling makes some sense to me. But can't seem to stop it. I have tried timing the shot manually (hold button for...

    Let's forget taste for now. I can get a shot that tastes "good enough" to me....It just doesn't seem right the way the machine behaves (and it's not as good as a double). No, it's not happening over 3 grind settings. The point is, that if I go from a grind setting of 8 to a grind setting of...

    Nice idea, but I've just tried a few shots using both of those methods and no difference The really weird thing for me is that way the preinfusion and the high pressure part of the shot seem to show different things. - If I grind coarser, I have the pour starting after about 2-3 seconds and...

    No, it won't stall with just 1 notch finer, but neither does it fix the problems. I can't find a way to stop the early pour during the preinfusion without wrecking the main pour. Here's another video as an example. This is still 10g but ground 3 notches finer. Even ground 3 notches finer...

    Howard - it only does this with the single. If I use the double basket, I can manage a "near perfect" shot. No flow at all during a steady pre-infusion, then a nice smooth flow at a constant pressure for the rest of the shot.

    Ok, so maybe I can start with a more "objective" question. What can I do to stop the short starting early (in the first few seconds of the pre-infusion), without the machine stalling / pulsing later on? That's the key problem for me. I don't think the shot should be starting in the first...

    OK, maybe "consistency" was the wrong word. I suppose my shots are fairly consistent, as per the video. You say maybe I'm grinding too coarse. That's what I initially thought, but if I grind finer, I still get the flow starting after a couple of seconds, but then it stalls completely when the...

    Yes, when I'm making one for me and one for my wife, that's exactly what I do, and it works well. Just wish I could get some consistency when just wanting a quick shot for myself!

    Thanks for the responses so far guys. Just to clarify a few things... - In the single basket, I'm using 10g of beans and usually getting 25-27g espresso out. - The pressure gauge is about right at this dosage/grind. It hovers towards the end of the "espresso range" - Once tamped, the 10g...

    Hi, I'm having problems, specifically with the single shot basket on my Sage Barista Express. I'm hoping someone here can offer some insight, because I've drawn a blank. Let me start by saying: - I know the BE isn't the best of machines, but it's what I have. I'm just trying to get the best...
