Does anyone do descaling on your machine?
I read that in SIngapore, our tap water are pretty soft, some suggested that its not a need.

Im running a Breville dual boiler BTW.

Another quick question.
What pre-infusion you guys running?

my current setup is
18g bean
94deg
7 sec pre-infusion
23 sec extraction
= total 30 sec
about 42g out.

find that little over extracted.. slight bitter.

i tried playing with the grind setting, but still cant find a good spot.

Preinfusion settings usually depends on beans.

Usually I would do preinfusion for light roast only maybe around 3-5 seconds at 3 bar? as it’s usually pretty fine grind and need some preinfusion to pull properly. Medium or dark roast I don’t bother.

How's Yemen Moka Matari? Should be very floral and a bit acidic?

Always so cheap. But don’t include import duties. It’s shipped from Italy, I bought my atom 75 from this site as well, same price as atom 65 bought locally.

Grinds have a heady wine aroma. Taste ?complex and fruity slight sweetness.

been using aeropress filter as screen, think can use 1 piece a day over many shots, as long you rinsed it

with bundled tamper, the smaller side helped with the paper edges

came out very clean

what is the benefit? reduce channeling? cleaner shower screen?

i think mainly very clean shower screen

just need a quick wet cloth wipe and 5s flush after a shot. i see the cloth no major oils or grounds.

channel wise seems always success got 2 streams out the spout

need cheapo tamper for this, wet the filter, put on top bigger side facing up, and then tamp down, use smaller side to make fine adjustment to paper edges
