I would be interested in seeing how people are doing this and their results. I have a decent as well and have not messed w/ this yet

I'm not sure that there is a breaking in period as such for the machine. Perhaps what's been referred to is getting to know the CT2?

Sounds more like a slayer shot than a blooming espresso, but agree that's another fantastic way to pull shots
