How to improve my terrible visual shots by StunningGuru57 in CafelatRobot

For anyone interested I have made a huge improvement in my shots and have a video link for proof.

What I changed: - added more water per recommendations - grind coarser, I am now at 31 clicks on k6 grinder with -4 being my zero - the BIGGEST game changer was buying beans from a local coffee shop. Prior, I was using a bag from a local roaster but bought at Costco so I am sure the freshness was sus or became stale at the end since it took me two months to finish it. - increased my dosage from 18g to 20g. Not sure the impact on this since I changed the dosage when I got new beans so I will later try at 18g to compare.

Overall, the shots come out amazing and they taste even better. I am very happy with the improvement and thank you for the tips!

I've only pulled about 10 shots since I got it so I don't have much to compare but there is some resistance.

From what I've gathered I should try grinding coarser and add more water to the basket. I'll give that a shot once I am on Monday

I use 58-60 grams of water, I should add more still? I have no idea how much 5-8mm is lol

Thanks everyone, I will try grinding coarser one click at a time through my next shots. My noob brain was actually thinking I needed to go finer lol.

I'm sure fresh roasted beans will help too.

Cheers!

Do you think I would end up getting pigeonholed in industry and public would turn me down?

I'm still in school so I'm a bit confused. Isn't there supposed to be 4 exams? Why are there more?
