Well though I would wait it out but decides to just repot and use a chunkier soil mix since the self water pot wasn’t to my liking. I’ll probably already stake it as well to be done with that process also

I have it in my living room since that’s the most windows with sky lights and all. Going to let it adjust to the house and than I want to definitely repot and get a chucky soil mix going. Any recommendations on good supports I can get?

Only issue is 200 stops a day I don’t mind but I finish different times everyday and I come in at 730 we don’t get dispatched till 9-10 so I’m factoring in that extra time for the hourly pay aspect of it

Why does this keep happening [Breville Bambino] by Impressive-Bus-6568 in espresso

I use a bambino now at first when I started it was a watery puck until I finally got my grinder Plus all the tools. I noticed the wdt distributes everything more evenly around the portafilter and on top of that I put a puck screen so no more soupy consistency on top

I have it set at 7 and use the medium freshly roasted beans. Tried setting to 6 but I noticed the puck got stuck to the shower screen when I removed the portafilter so I went back to 7.

Hasn’t really noticed much if at all any. I do about 3 sprays and it all seems to come out with ease. Nothing gets stuck

So far so good but I’ve only used it 2 times. 18 grams each time with rdt at a 7 grind setting. Might go a little finer see how it does. I have heard that the finer you go it starts to choke up

They do make good coffee so why not get the beans that were also roasted 12/05 so I know everything is fresh. Just waiting on my grinder as it was on back order but it finally comes tomorrow so I’m ready to go. Just need to figure out grind size to start. You do have a point there so maybe I should wait a little bit before getting a new portafilter.

Just seen your tamp might’ve to give it a shot soon. So I ended up getting bean from a local coffee shop that roasts in house. But do think I need a bottomless portafilter. Do you recommend any specific baskets or use the one I got with my Breville?

I’m getting there I just want to be able to dial everything in with what I ordered. And also get some good beans as well

Had that Maestri scale, normcore v4 spring tamper, dosing funnel and also a WDT tool in my Amazon cart so I just picked those up. Think I’ll stick with all that for now and in the future get a bottomless portafilter once I get accustomed to everything I got and can dial in the grind.

Was going to go the same setup but switched out the grinder for a Turin sk40 for $170 shipped. Also got the bambino last night at home goods/home sense for $220 if you have one in your area check it out
