Yeah throwing in variable pressure and having a fixed volume of water to deal with make it a bit more tricky to dial in!
Not sure if I mentioned it previously, but I definitely had a lot more success once I dropped the pressure I was putting on the lever. Though it's still all by feel so hard to give any specific advice there!
At least you're not roasting your own 200g batches of beans to add into the chaos of dialling shots in!
I'm struggling a bit with the La Pavoni / Sette Baraza setup at the moment - things are a little inconsistent, even with the same grind & weight.
Obvs I blame the beans and incorrectly aligned chakra.
