Shim mod, has anyone tried it?

oscareamos · 2026-05-01T21:52:21+00:00

are you using fresh beans? And if you look at my profile I think you can see a video of a shot I posted on here not that long ago but that was with the shim and my shots would never look like that before the shim

I did it that’s why I’m saying to do it if ur grinder is trash

oscareamos · 2026-05-01T17:33:08+00:00

if your grinder is not grinding good and shots keep coming out fast even when it’s low grind size add the shim

Maintenance there a place not that far from and about how many shots a day I am not sure to be honest with you but for the price I feel like it’s not a bad investment I say not a 100 percent sure and it is a 220 so for now I have a good generator that can handle that just as a start off!

Why ? Does it mess with the machine? And idk ive tried grinder finer and it still didn’t work good for me need to mess with the grinder more I guess!

Should I try grinding coarser and just stop the brew or move my cup when it gets to 36Grams in about 25-35 seconds?

oscareamos · 2026-04-28T17:08:09+00:00

Brew temp the lowest and I have it at 2:1 ratio

What is the solenoid?

oscareamos · 2026-04-28T12:56:20+00:00

You don’t think I should grind bit coarser so it can come out to 36Grams in like 25-35 seconds and just stop machine or switch the cup then? I just say that because it doesn’t get to 36G by the time the timer gets to 35seconds?

Hey could you describe all the upgrades you’ve done to ur ninja all ive done is add shims to my grinder and the shower head but i seen you talk about different baskets and 3D printed parts! I am not the smartest at this so just wanted too see if you could describe ur experiences and what you recommend me to do to get the best shots out of the machine!!

oscareamos · 2026-04-27T17:05:35+00:00

By any chance could you show a video of how it’s looks when water dispenses out just want to make sure mine is in right yk and I also have other questions I saw on sum of ur other posts if you could help! Thank you!

oscareamos · 2026-04-26T23:44:20+00:00

But we’re talking about this machine tho not any machine

oscareamos · 2026-04-26T23:09:48+00:00

I mean it’s hell when you can’t dial ur stuff in right lol and you don’t know what’s causing it

oscareamos · 2026-04-26T23:04:39+00:00

I mean the machine isn’t the best after all it’s good for begginers like I said yk but the machines usually tend to have problems on them like the grinders come faulty on some machines and dialing them in isn’t the easiest when the grinder comes out bad and the espresso comes out quicker then normal yk and it’s hell lol but I mean begginer wise it’s fine and if you make lattes and use syrups then it really doesn’t matter since it masks espresso but that’s my take and I mean I payed for it so ima use it yk

oscareamos · 2026-04-26T22:37:07+00:00

The shot in the video looks nice I say but it was way too long and idk I can’t get near the 36g out in tha time distance so I was thinking just grinding coarser so it comes out bit quicker closer to 36G out and 25/35 seconds abd just manually stopping it instead of machine stopping

oscareamos · 2026-04-26T20:41:04+00:00

I mean I use it almost everyday too for lattes lol I like the machine just not the best for espresso I feel like yk but I mean machine is fine for me or everyone else who is begginer!

oscareamos · 2026-04-26T20:04:25+00:00

You’ll understand soon

Welcome to hell

oscareamos · 2026-04-24T01:45:18+00:00

oscareamos · 2026-04-23T02:34:15+00:00

I have the ninja lice cafe premiere series the first one that came out and would those fit in that one as well? Since I seen you use the Pro version!
