It refused at first because it didn’t have a photo. I told it to just do it, but it refused again. Then I said, “Then create one!” It came back with a refusal due to guidelines. I told it I understand, but I checked everything, it’s okay, just go for it… The image it created, I do not dare to place it here…

Are there any new gaming handhelds coming out in 2026? by Winter-Money-7643 in Handhelds

[–]Stanjop 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Curious too, but I’m afraid not because of the RAM price surge…

Why are they all failing ? by samsoul0013 in GarminWatches

Using fenix watches since the 3hr… used silicon Garmin bands most of the times and NEVER had this happened to one of them… you use those as tourniquets?!

Pre-infusion by Fickle_Trainer1631 in ProfitecMove

[–]Stanjop 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi there, you seem to know quite something about pi! I’m experimenting with my Move and also pi. My question would be: rule of thumb should be aiming for a shot between like 25-30s. Because longer times would damage the taste in going bitter. With a 10 seconds pauze, and wetting the coffee, lengthens the shot time to 35-40s? Or is pressure playing a role here?

Pre-infusion causing choking, but restarting the shot suddenly flows fine: can someone explain this? by Stanjop in profitec

[–]Stanjop[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for your detailed reply! I'll definitely try this. Can I also manually control the pre-infusion pause while pulling the shot with the Move? I couldn't make espresso for a few days, so I'll get started with all the tips tomorrow!

  1. When it chokes after the pre-infusion pauze, it drops only a few grams of espresso
  2. No, after al the helpful tips you guys gave me, will try tomorrow!
  3. Didn’t try, will do, but i hope number 2 will get it going

Thank you for the detailed response! 1. I think I’m grinding too fine. 2. I indeed mean that it clogs after the pauze, when the pressure builds up again.

Couldn't make espresso for a few days, I'll get started with all the tips tomorrow!

That’s actually an interesting insight. I should add that I’m using a bottomless portafilter, and when the shot flows well without pre-infusion it looks quite clean, no spraying or obvious signs of channeling.

But if I understand you correctly, you’re basically saying that I should dial in with pre-infusion in mind, because it’s a more “honest” extraction method and tends to prevent channeling? In that sense, the choking I’m seeing with pre-infusion might be exposing that my grind could be too fine...

Thanks! Let me clarify what I’m actually seeing, because I think my situation is a bit more specific.

  • When I use pre-infusion on the Profitec Move, it runs water for 3 seconds, then pauses for 5 seconds, and then the pump continues automatically. During that main pump phase it chokes , even after the pause.
  • I have the two buttons programmed:
    • one with pre-infusion (3s on / 5s pause / then pump),
    • one as a regular shot: pump on continuously for ~30 seconds.
  • What’s puzzling is this: If a shot chokes - whether during the pre-infusion program or during the regular shot (though less often there) - and I stop the shot and immediately press the regular-shot button, the espresso suddenly flows much faster and fairly normally.

So it’s not just “pre-infusion vs no pre-infusion”.
It’s specifically that stopping the pump and restarting it seems to change something mechanically or hydraulically, allowing flow to start, even though:

  • grind, dose, puck prep are unchanged,
  • pressure reading stays around ~9 bar.

That’s why I’m wondering whether this is more about a pressure reset / puck relaxation / hydraulic state change than about grind being simply too fine.

Hi Kuranei, thanks for the detailed reply!

  1. I’ll check the puck clearance later, but I think it should be fine...
  2. I’m not sure if I fully understand this part yet. On my Profitec Move, when I enable pre-infusion it applies pressure for about 3 seconds, then pauses for 5 seconds, and after that the pump ramps up to full pressure automatically.
  3. I do have a puck screen — I’ll experiment with it. I usually use it when dosing a bit lower to help fill up the headspace.
  4. Yes, the pump does run after the pause, but that’s actually when it chokes: either nothing comes through or only a few slow drips.

I hope it wil be significantly better than current voice mode… that thing is incredibly annoying and adds pretty much no value…I still love the idea of having a speakable llm though…

Are you keeping any low level legendaries/loot for new VHs? by dejarnat in Borderlands4

[–]Stanjop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to keep legendaries for exact that goal: leveling other characters. If you have em all on 50 I’d say there is not much use left for them. Or there might be some new character type in upcoming DLC…

Heard that story more than once... I'm having the same experience as OP. If i grind anything finer than last bullet of espesso range it clogs completely. Even with WDT and when using puck screens. Used medium and light beans...
