I posted in tips but got negligible responses. Is anyone brewing sprovers with a medium roast like Nossa Full Cycle?

I have not been that successful so please share your sprover tips. I have been experimenting with Scott Rao's Filter 2.1 and Brian Quan's Sprover (both have...

Made a quick video this morning to share how I make high EY shots with medium/light roast Kenyan beans.

I also used a filter paper on the bottom of this shot, which ups the extraction even more, but it does decrease the beauty of the bottomless portafilter extraction.

San Remo seems to have thrown their hat into the ring for the high end single group home machine. The design is very similar to the Cafe Racer. It will be available in 110-120v and 220v with a water tank. It has a manual paddle to pressure/flow profile real time and...

Hi everyone,

These are pictures with the large paddle...

I took a few years off HB. When I left, WDT was understood to help folks having a hard time with even extraction but the general consensus was that if you can avoid it altogether your shots will be better.

These days I see a dozen brands with WDT tools and grinder manufacturers...

This thread is for a Faema Urania I just purchased and is in process to being shipped. I am making this thread now to document the process as it is the first time I am arranging for my own transportation rather than the seller providing it.

I also thought it would be useful to...

My Quick Mill QM67's E61 lever action was getting a bit stiff and squeaky after 1 year of use, so I decided to lubricate its cam. With the exception of the shower screen, I've never disassembled any part of an E61 group before. Both of my machines have E61 flow control devices,...
