New grinder has arrived (ahead of machine and beans) so this mornings dog walk took me past my local coffee shop to buy some beans..
It all seems very easy, dialled in per the instructions for espresso which involved the machine clogging so set it back a couple of notches and have had 3 lovely shots using same amount of ground as usual but different coarseness this morning, plus 3 more I’ve put down the sink as otherwise I’ll be bouncing off the walls!
much sweeter and ambit thicker in consistency than the pre ground lavazza I usually but I’ll save any further playing until the new machine as I suspect much more refinement will take me way beyond the capabilities of my little dualit!
The hand grinder is faff though, so we’ll see how long I put up with it for before going mental and buy a grinder…
