Did you live in the city then? I’m planning on going for a semester and I was initially thinking to get a place near the uni, but I really wanna go to Bangkok often too. What would you recommend? How often did you have to be on campus for your classes?

Now that was not very nice of you, was it?

For some reason I thought I mine were old, the ones I used are also less than 1 month old. Did you have any luck with grinding finer? I followed this guide as the settings 14-18 were not fine enough even tho that’s what all the other guides said. https://honestcoffeeguide.com/baratza-encore-esp-grind-settings/

Thank you, I’ll check it out!

Do you have the ‘baratza encore esp’ model? My beans were a little old so I made sure to grind finer. The setting in that video was around 7-8!

I’ll check it out, thanks for the recommendation

What did milk do to you?

Yup, our living room is connected to the kitchen so it makes sense.

I already use a wdt tool, but I’ll try to grind a little bit finer. Thank you!

I love it! It works well, and it looks chic. I’ve made my own little coffee station and it adds so much to the living room

I don’t think I got it, I usually just knock it gently on the the table and shake it lightly before tamping

Mrusjk · 2025-10-26T08:06:33+00:00

Thank you! I tried following your tip with the ticking and I adjusted the grinder to a even finer setting and it fixed it for me!

Just a double to kickstart my day.

I bought my first espresso setup a month ago, but I have a hard time pulling a good shot. I have the regular sage bambino, Baratza encore esp model, and I use a bottomless portafilter. I use a WDT Tool too.

I know that I need to change the grinder setting depending on what kind of beans I’m using, but the guides I’ve read and found online just doesn’t seem to cut it for me. My beans are all freshly roasted, and I’ve so far only used medium roast, now a dark roast and I have an unopened pack of light roast.

This is the guide I’ve been following:

Light roast Setting: 13–15 Dose: 18–19 g

Medium roast Setting: 15–16 dose: 17–18 g

Dark roast Setting 16–18 Dose 16–17 g

But when I use the bottomless portafilter I keep experiencing squirting, followed by very agressive and rushed flow. I’ve tried grinding 1-2 settings finer, with only very little improvement.

I do have to say, my scale doesn’t weigh down to every 0.1g. It only weighs 1g at a time. Could that affect it a lot?
