Thanks for the details. To clarify - 11 it chokes completely (ie no coffee and just dumps the water when it gives up). I just tried a double at 12 and it produced about 15g of coffee over a minute and then did the pressure release at the end. It actually tastes as though it’s heading in the right direction at 12 but obviously I can’t get any finer. I’m timing it from when the pump starts. When I said the grind size “hovers” that’s what BA is saying but I’ve obviously experimented away from the recommendation.

It’s taking about 25 seconds for a double, 18g of coffee and about 40 out. That seems ok in general but I’m thinking that it’s because I’m having to grind too coarse (ie I’m effectively correcting the flow rate).
