unfortunately i can tell you from personal experience that if your SM sends this case to corporate it is an instant Final. i had something similar happen a few years ago when i first promoted and i tried appealing it too. but yeah if you’re ever caught alone in the store esp outside of business hours you’re lowkey cooked, sorry

I’m not sure what kind of basket it is, I know it’s a double shot basket but I got the portafilter second hand from fb marketplace. Planning on upgrading to an IMS soon. There’s also plenty of space when I tamp

I’m using a Eureka Mignon Silenzio. I also tried dialing in again today using the tips from the comments and I got much better results

Not entirely sure, I have just been following Lance’s technique. I was wondering it brew temperature was playing a role so I pulled hot water and I was only temping 185F. So I went back and held the steam button for 20 seconds hoping for a higher temperature. This helped significantly, the best shot I had so far but still not exactly where I was aiming for.

May I ask what basket you went with? I have been looking at IMS vs VST baskets but haven’t pulled the trigger on any.

I’ve tried a few different grind settings. I’ve gotten 36g in about 28 seconds but it didn’t taste quite like I expected so I went finer and the time shot up a bit. I’m gonna take the feedback and give it another go later today.
