I posted a thread a while back on using a quick read thermometer to calibrate my flush routine. you may find it useful as well.kidloco wrote:I was just wondering, for us that not have Chris E61 thermometer, what is your amount of flush water in ml (or oz or whatever works for you)? In my machine manual (La Scala Butterfly Levetta) it says, when boiler is at 1.2 bar flush approx. 60ml water and pull shot immediately...That just sounds too little and it seems that is still too hot. I flush at least 200ml of water and then immediately pull shot. I mostly do light roasted coffee.
I know that amout of flushing depends on boiler pressure setting, but could you be kind to say something like 1,2bar/100ml flush or something like that so I can just try to make some sense of it
