  • A question for the espresso experts:

    I'm aiming for a brew ratio of 2 and an extraction time of ~28 seconds. However, I'm unsure if I should count the pre-infusion as part of the 28 seconds? I used to aim for 30 seconds from the moment I pulled the lever up, but this morning it dawned on me that I might be better off starting the timer the first coffee appears at the bottom of the portafilter? Which with current settings would be approximately 8 seconds.

  • Think you start the brewing timer as soon as water enters the basket- so you were doing it right to begin with
