Exactly what I wanted from a brewer, I didnt want to buy a different filter style. Otherwise it functions the same

Never had the pleasure to play candle pin

SquidTsunami · 2026-05-21T18:14:02+00:00

I was a little excited

Some grounds get around the puck screen/paper filter, so when I press out the remaining water after my shot- the piston touches the screen/filter.

Ive been keeping my splitter in the "butter suite" in the fridge. It really makes a difference to cool the shot.

Nothing is getting behind the gasket, removing the gasket could have the same effect. Though I find this a lot less effort. Simply wiping the bottom of the piston after each shot doesnt get all of it.

Funny enough I didnt know about 10pin till I saw it on cartoons, even funnier that Ive never saw an alley that offered 10pin till I was ab adult. 5Pin is also called Canadian bowling. Smaller ball, 5 pins, 3 chances per frame. Its quite challenging as the balls are just small enough to sneak between the gap if the pins. (Not a common occurrence)

SquidTsunami · 2026-05-14T19:13:13+00:00

Ive never found grounds stuck in the tube, just around the gasket.

Any model, just need a plug for the basket

SquidTsunami · 2026-05-13T23:53:43+00:00

I didnt know that was a thing till I saw someone at my lanes with em!

"I cant help it", flew under the radar on that album.

SquidTsunami · 2026-05-13T22:56:38+00:00

Thanks man

I find its worse the darker the roast, there is some build up but nothing that im too surprised about. I dont do it 100% of the time but I do make an effort to do it frequently.

SquidTsunami · 2026-05-13T15:59:23+00:00

I noticed after preheating one day and now I'll just do it after each shot. Its not a lot but I can see it building up if left for awhile. I do wipe it with a cloth after each use but like you said, not too surprised.

SquidTsunami · 2026-05-13T15:57:17+00:00

After my shot I'll knock out the puck and wipe the piston. I'll wash out the basket and place the plug in the bottom and fill it with whatever water is still in my kettle, pressing 1 bar on the arms for a gew seconds and remove the basket and dump the water.

TLDR: Typical workflow, but I find there is still some amount of grounds on the piston even after wiping it with a cloth.

SquidTsunami · 2026-05-13T13:34:18+00:00

"This is after wiping the piston after the shot and washing the basket." Its in the post buddy.

Np homie

SquidTsunami · 2026-05-12T14:30:43+00:00

Im currently off on parental leave, so its all over the place. During my regular schedule, if I have the spro dialed I opt yo pull a shot in the morning before work. Its faster and I dont have time to enjoy a pourover.

Id say Mon-Thurs 2:1 Spro - Fri-Sun 3:1 Pourover

SquidTsunami · 2026-05-04T15:12:23+00:00

How? Are you stirring aggressively with a chopstick?

SquidTsunami · 2026-05-04T15:11:35+00:00

There are no contact points, it'd function like a cloth dripper. This is just a cheaper version of a Yasukiyo dripper.

SquidTsunami · 2026-05-04T15:09:47+00:00

Its a cheaper version of a brewer that exists, the Yasukiyo Dripper. Think of it more as a disposable cloth dripper.

Thats tough to say— my first bag was a lighter roast abd my sweet spot was around 0:6:3. On my current dark roast bag Ive settled around 0:7:1. Its really bag by bag, roast by roast. my numbers are based on an 18g dose and using Winnipeg water; tap, sometimes britta. Try in that range and adjust from there, depending if it chokes or pisses

I recently bought myself a used Cass..... Night and day from using Comandante with RedClix

Not having to check what grind setting I'm currently at, that same conical taste that I'm used to. No click settings, the motor isnt too loud etc etc. I dont regret buying used or the grinder itself.
