Correct! Those drops are a negative, but it's more of a negative to saturate the puck slower according to the Decent guy. My grinder's steps and retention are so big I take what I can get for now.
The shot was nice, but my threshold till now for home espresso has just been whether I wince or not. The shots with this are all good. Maybe temp control made the biggest difference as my grind is off more often than not.
What's the best is trying different profiles and noticing the differences. It's like a coffee version of a posh box of chocolates.
Ha, I know what you mean. It felt like getting anything even vaguely in the right region took longer than anything else in the learning process. Once you’re there, the dialling in is relatively straightforward (to a degree, I don’t take it to the astronomical levels of precision some do).
