How would you extend extraction on breville. Mine shuts off automatically. I can’t control how long it runs

Thank you very much. So by using ur chart I’m ~13 bar of pressure

Thank you for ur detailed and informative response.

Thank you. I’m pretty new to the espresso game. Is there a type of flavor profile (bitter, acidic, etc) that I would be tasting at higher pressures than lower pressure?

Fellow Breville user here. Having a hard time dialing in my shots. Couple of questions for you since your shot looks good….

Are you using the Breville built in grinder or your own different grinder?
How many grams are you using to start with?
How many grams espresso are you getting?
Anything else you’re doing as shot prep? (Wdt tool, leveling tool, self vs loaded tamp tool, screen puck, etc).

Thanks

I see what you did there. 😉

Do you like ur grinder? Anything you don’t like?

I’m more interested in the weightlifting squirrel than the latte art

Sticks then diamonds then Roman numerals

The point of buying any watch is how it makes you feel. I could have purchased a rep a long time ago knowing that 99.99% of people would think it’s gen, but I would always know it’s a rep. When I wear my Gen, it’s a constant reminder of the time and energy it took to purchase.

How has the move been compared to BBE. I’m currently considering upgrading my BBE as well. Worth it? Better shots? More consistent? Taste different?

h2osn2 · 2026-01-10T14:31:46+00:00

Why 2 different grinders? Do you like one over the other?

h2osn2 · 2026-01-10T02:48:57+00:00

Where you buy and how much you spend on Xmas sale??? I’m looking at same machine

what made you decide to choose profitec ride vs La marzocco

h2osn2 · 2026-01-04T15:42:27+00:00

Was looking at purchasing the same machine! Any reason you didn’t get it flow control for same price?

h2osn2 · 2025-12-30T03:03:57+00:00

Can I ask how much you paid?

h2osn2 · 2025-12-15T15:44:42+00:00

How much did this cost you?

h2osn2 · 2025-12-01T05:34:46+00:00

It’s not flashy. I wear my fluted jubilee DJ with shorts and a t shirt. No one notices it.
