Yeah Bryan glad you mentioned knocking the portafilter... I still see seasoned guys do this, so I guess some old habits never die. I simply don't see the point, but will say that the guys I see doing it use a wooden handled tamper, so that is better…
The shot was about 25 seconds, looked to be a 16gr. or so dose in a ridged Marzocco 14 gr. basket. 1.75 oz.
When there's less amounts of crema, i perceive shots as being "hotter". Because in the same fluid volume, there's more... um, fluid. The sho…
Yeah I'm pretty sure that's all washed as well... if it's the flagship I think it is. Well, there goes my theory, haha.

5 bean blend. All washed to the best of my knowledge, but they're secretive so i can't be sure.
Just curiious, was the shot bitter, sour, flat, acrid, astringent or just boring and blah. I'm still amazed sometimes how as little as a gram or less dose difference pulled the same time same temp can make a world of difference. Then there's the tim…

Yeah... we stopped roasting beans months ago... just wasn't crucial anymore and WAAY better than 'white espresso'. :0) We are considering not even putting coffee in the cups, just serving paper cups with water in them and seeing if the customers not…
I had an experience yesterday that reminded me of this thread.
Went to a locally known indie shop serving the same coffee that i use on slightly better equipment than i have. (their Linea has flow restriction, mine doesn't. they have a Robur, i hav…
How recently have you had a shot that wasn't leveled, distributed, or... tamped?
There's a very strange curve in learning this (or any i assume) craft. You start out knowing nothing, you learn to do lots of stuff, then you eliminate everything that…
As I know it, the theory on the curve is that it focuses the pressure more towards the middle in order to help prevent side channeling. I know that personally I prefer a slight curve to my tamper and I find that I get the most even extraction rates…
Hello, the arabica my company is growing, grows in the shades of trees. Also it's growing at a height of +1200mtrs, that's probably why your's isn't growing well. I don't know if you make coffee, but you can use the pucks as fertilizer, actually any…
Thanks for your clarity and opinion. I removed the nay-sayer stuff as you are correct, the focus of this blog is squarely on Clancy. I do disagree on your last point (but will save those comments for another blog). I think that if someone claims to…
