Not sure if I can adjust the OPV on the Cubika - forum posts seem to agree that any adjustment doesn’t actually change the pressure. I’ve just picked up a small bag of North Star espresso to try a slightly darker roast. It sounds similar in roast to the YB, so will order a kg of YB if all goes well!
Thanks for the tips. Might see if a much lower dose works too, eg 12-13g. I’ve just got a nice flat burred Mazzer Super Jolly and the grounds seem way better than out of the MC2 so hopefully it’s not too many fines!
Great, the Super Jolly will definitely be up to the task. Careful going really low with the dose, you start running into issues with headspace and the coffee washing around in the basket.
