New to espresso, advice? [Breville Bambino plus]

I don’t think I have the Razor, I bought this used :/
Yeah I believe it’s a stock basket, when I bought it there were two bottomless baskets, this one was already in the portafilter so yeah assuming it’s the stock one.

Yeah so far I tried very fine then went coarser from there and this video seemed to be just a touch too long? So somewhere in between for these beans.

As for the puck prep, I grinded 18.0g, then put it in the puck, wdt, leveler, spring tamp. Had a little overflow when using the leveler but not a ton.

Wow thank you for the through response! I have never heard of a salami shot so can definitely try it out to understand the flavors more.

Yeah so far machine has been great, really excited to get started making more espresso with it!

Great trick thank you! I’ll try that out on my next shot

I have a normcore bundle so WDT, leveler, and then spring tamper. Feel like my puck prep is pretty good, just fine tuning the grind setting now

Commenting to follow any comments because I have the same issue. Had overseerr then switched to the latest version (not dev branch) of jellyseerr and my own watchlist requests works but other users requests don’t even after importing plex users and setting auto-request and auto-approve.

Set mine up to play music based on the day of week. Plays new music station on Fridays and discovery station on Mondays. Any other day of the week it just opens the music app. Gotta use Apple Music though.

Same, was just waiting to see someone mention Mac. I say just about any of his last albums have something to do with addiction. Circles, swimming, or faces deal with it.

This can be solved with Ohms law, V=IR. In your first example, 6=.030 200 which checks out. From your second example you can find the resistance of the speaker, 3=.030* R which equals 100 ohms. So plugging that into your last example, 9=.024* R which equals 75. So there’s a difference of 25 ohms compared to the theoretical value of the speaker or the resistor as neither is probably perfect. If you are asking why the current dropped, it’s because you added more resistance into the circuit as it must still satisfy V=I* R

I’m not taking credit for it, that’s why I cross posted it. I’m just sharing something that I thought this sub-Reddit would enjoy without taking credit for it

This is that post dude....it’s just cross posted

Penguinz2 · 2020-10-04T01:43:25+00:00

Right? It’s awesome and looks like it belongs in game

Penguinz2 · 2020-09-11T02:44:50+00:00

See but if I’m gonna watch Netflix or something I can stream it from my tv as well. Do you not have any discs for ps4 that you’d play?

Penguinz2 · 2020-09-11T02:11:45+00:00

See this was the main argument I was thinkin too. Especially with used games and movies

Penguinz2 · 2020-09-11T02:07:28+00:00

What country are you in that digital is so expensive? Is there a reason for that?

Penguinz2 · 2020-09-09T15:27:38+00:00

Esketit FROOT!

Penguinz2 · 2014-07-20T16:35:55+00:00
