Not sure I'd bother doing this in all honesty. I started off by doing this when I got my 1zPresso JX / Robot but then I was like.. hang on... why am I doing this? I have no intention of ever using this coffee... it is darker than any coffee I'd ever drink... it's older than any coffee I'd ever buy etc. So even if I got in the ballpark of those beans, the ballpark of the beans I actually want to use might be totally different. And they were.
You should be able to get in the ballpark pretty quickly even using nice coffee. Maybe three shots to get close and then fine dialing? It's worth it I reckon.
