Looking for feedback on greens from Wholesale Origin
Yes, there doesn't seem to be much information anywhere. However I did get a reply to my query via their contact us form on the website and they do indeed offer samples. You just have to ask. They sell both boxes as well as full bags but their full bag lists are rather vague as far as traceability and information

7g VST/LM Single Shot Basket Tips
It depends on the coffee, could need to use up to 8.5-9g or more to get a dry puck at the end - myself, I don't care about soupy pucks that much, i just clean my knockbox regularly. I'd also recommend a thin puck sceen like the ones from sworks design

A dozen origins or so into this, I thought I saw a trend with washed versus natural processing (just like IKAWA has in their app), but now I've
