  • @mmccarthy @Jonny69 @Scrabble thanks for the in depth tips - I really appreciate it. will get practicing with the milk and try just using the double basket for a bit.

    I suspect it’s due to old beans, but I’ve been struggling to get an espresso out of the machine with the same depth/strength and crema as from a decent coffee shop. Is this just something one has to put up with if you don’t have a commercial machine?

  • I get great crema out of my Gaggia Classic, a bit of research on how to dial in your setup and some practice pulling shots will get you there... It's mainly window dressing tho', crema actually makes you're coffee taste bitter!
