Hi everybody - 1st post here!
I read many times about a 5 seconds (approx) delay before coffee flows from the portafilter, but mine appears immediately. My workflow seems to be generally good - I use a Rocket Evoluzione, bottomless portafilter, 18g of ground coffee (dialled in...

Hi. I'm about to purchase a wug2 and can't decide on burrs. I drinking black espresso only. Medium roast. 1:1.5 . My current grinder has 64mm SSP HU.
