I, like other Vivaldi owners, have found the Triple basket to be something to play with a couple times, and then toss back in the drawer.
Im able to fit 18grams in the double basket, and some coffees, 19grams, without hitting the bolt when locking in. For the past few weeks, thats how Ive been dosing(and buying coffees that do well as such), with good results. Of course, your mileage may vary... and in this case, I wouldn't be surprised. Most people find ~16grams is the sweet spot. And yet again, one of the longer standing members on the S1 board, Niko, is a big fan of using the Triple basket, dosing 20grams, pulling things on the tight side. My suggestion, start out where most people suggest, and then adjust from there, IF you feel the need to change anything.
