I’ve been playing with the Weber basket for about two weeks and haven’t been able to pull a good shot consistently or at least back to back.
Today was a good day – I pulled my wife a God shot and followed up with my own.
I’ve been trying to get a back to back shot without any luck – I’d be as anal as possible to follow exact recipe without any luck.
The only variable I changed was using a manual grinder. I’ll see if I can repeat it for my afternoon coffee
For now, I’m on a high – I know it’s a little sad but maybe this group may understand it a little better than anyone else 😅
24g in
40g out
5 second (poor man) pre-infusion
Circa 25 second pull
Filter paper and puck screen
On ECM Mechanika Max and 1Z J Pro
Anyone else have same breakthrough
Any feedback?

Love the Basquiat back there, that’s some great espresso area deco
Beautiful machine
Nice cup
cup is beautiful, what are they called?
Looking very nice, indeed! May I ask the name of the scales you used in the pictures?
More CREMA!
Nice, this machine should last you a long time. Enjoy your espresso!
And the electric grinder we should avoid? What model-make is that?
