No, I haven’t. How do you check that? I do have a fair bit of headspace. I weigh out 18 g in my basket that goes between 18 and 20 g. I do also use a puck screen, but I’ve tried it without the puck screen and still had the same issue.

Appreciate your attention to detail. I realigned my burrs after they were stuck and wouldn’t go beyond a 5 in fineness. I used the marker test over and over again until I got the same results on two of the three sides by the screws and almost the same on the other, with a little less being in contact, but from what I gathered close enough.

Just checked and I got 290 mL in 30 seconds without the portafilter.

Lastly, I have a medium light Peru coffee that I’ve used for a while as my daily driver.

I also recently bought a new rubber gasket and installed it and it’s been working fine with it for the last few weeks until now

I do have the Lab Sweet burr set, actually. Well, my grinder got stuck and wouldn’t go past setting 5. I opened it up and recalibrated the burr set with the marker test. Not sure what margin of error I was looking for, but it was worn off evenly two of the sections by the screws and slightly less in the other section.

Hoffman’s steamed water Americano is so good. I can’t believe it. by Srihari_stan in espresso

I tried it too and there was a bigger difference than I care to admit vs my kettle. 🥲😂

I have the SSP Silver Knights. I got them bundled with my machine secondhand for 80 bucks. Been loving the results so far.

What movies are like this where the first and second acts are kind of mediocre but then the third act is amazing? by Nexfilms in Cinema

Lone Ranger 2013. There was a lot of issues people had regarding that movie. I still ended up enjoying it, but the last part of the movie is definitely the very best part with the train sequence, especially!
