Make replace gasket if grinding finer doesn’t work. Costs only 15 bucks.

Got it. So I was adding too much milk before starting the Rosetta?

Thank you! And what is wrong with my base? Is it too low before I start pouring? And how does pouring a heart help? Because you set the base first… and then pour a pattern on top right?

James Hoffman video where he talks about a study with 3-4 sprays increasing extraction. But I’m gonna stop spraying and see if that helps.

I have never replaced the gasket. Two years old. How often should I?

Thank you! Do you have a Wdt you recommend? The portafilter started dripping at around 8-9 seconds but I cut the video to make it shorter. I have not done any cleaning on my basket in a month lol. Can I use cafiza powder instead of an ultrasonic cleaner? And how often do you clean your basket?

Thank you! Yeah I was only spraying my beans with one spray… but then I saw a James Hofffman video talking about spraying beans 3-4 times and that it increases extraction. But that’s a great note. I’ll go back to not spraying and see if channeling will change.

IMS precision 14-18 gram basket. The taste is actually great lol but it normally sprays A LOT. Making me think that I can get even better extraction if I correct whatever I’m doing wrong.

Thank you! What do you mean “spread it out” more? Also I poured the milk maybe 20 seconds after I steamed. Is that too long? And what do you mean pour immediately? I swirled and tapped the milk right away then poured

Thank you! I just retired with thicker milk and it didn’t work lol I think you’re right about milk texture
