How does everyone pull this blend? Onyx website says 19 in 55 out in 25 at 198 degrees. It's pretty good but feel it could be better.

Hello,

I am looking for a set of commercial espresso machine and a grinder to start practicing pulling shots and latte art at home.

The goal is to open a quality coffee shop in Luxembourg by January 2021. I am mentioning this as it would make sense if the entry level machine...

Hi All,

Firstly, I am a novice, please go easy.

I have a Rocket Giotto Type V Machine and Mazzer Luigi Grinder.

Prior to buying, I took a 3 hours course on making espresso but I just can't seem to get it right. I am just not clear or getting confused watching videos on how-to...

Hi everyone,

I am new to this forum and in desperate need of advice for buying a new electrical grinder, mainly to be used for the Aeropress, and occasionally a Bialetti.

I currently have a GSI Outdoors Javamill hand grinder (it was a gift) but it's absolutely useless. It's...

I'm currently looking at dual boilers under 2k and the options that I've come up with so far are: Caffeum Perfectus Minima, Profitec 300, Lelit Elizabeth, and Luca a53.

I'll be making at least two 8oz lattes a day and would like to get more into espressos. My goal is to find a...

I was looking at the helor stance motor on option-os website and noticed the Coming Soon for the Lagom P64 Flat Burr Grinder. It appears to be a single dose grinder with adjustable RPM similar in design to monolith but keeping the asthetic of the HSM.

I haven't been able to...

I've just seen there's a new, version two of the Porlex Mini and Tall hand grinders. I know these are not incredibly high end, but many people enjoy them vs some of the less expensive Hario hand grinders and such. I have the original Tall, with the slotted handle (the second...

Hi

I've watched some many videos. Tried so many different things. But I just can't master even doing a simple latte heart.

A start high and slow to make my base. Then come down low and pour the art but it always just loses its shape and turns into more of a blob. See...

Hi all

I'm trying to decrease my final weight of a double espresso. I'm pulling a 1:3.5 ratio. I used 16 grams of coffee and final weight was 56g. Brew time was 30-35 seconds. Coffee is about 2 weeks off of roast. It tastes well balanced. I think I am at as fine of a grind as...

Hello,

I'm a newbie, and loving all the coffee talk. Thanks.

My dad is 80 this year and suddenly wants 'an espresso machine'. He and my mom drink drip, good drip, but not espresso. They won't be interested in a higher end grinder. But they might go for a grinder/machine combo....
