Synesso Baskets - group buy!! - Page 6

Received the baskets I ordered. My thanks to Jonr for putting this together.

Regarding unpunched holes, all 4 of the ones I ordered have this problem--several unpunched in each. I haven't tried punching them out yet. Looks like it could be tricky to make a hole that's not too large, which is probably as bad as no hole.

This has been my observation as well with the 18g baskets: clean dry pucks.

Wow, I thought it was just my imagination or improper tamping technique. I've only used the new baskets 3-4 times and the pucks seem to be drier, stay together and not fracture as much as when I use the 21g basket.

I used a tiny sewing needle and gently popped out the unpunched holes... I also cleaned up a couple of partial punches too. The basket now works perfectly.

Thanks Jon for organizing this purchase!

Shoutout from Australia. I'd gone to my PO box for a week before I saw it in my mail at home. At least 4 days sitting under my nose.

Massive thanks to Jon for getting me 4 carefully wrapped and packed baskets. Top bloke to deal with.
