Puck screen, yes screen, sticking to grouphead, what to do?

Just recently after changing my tamper my last 2 shots the actual puck screen, not the puck the puck screen itself, was stuck to the group head. Not tight just barely like the water was holding it and not letting go. I was able to lightly touch it and it dropped off. First time this has happened

Best Bottled Water for Espresso - UK

My issue is that there's no doubt for me. I much prefer the espresso from acqua panna water than from the Waitrose lock hills. I find there's much more depth of flavour coming through in my flat white. I think for my pour overs, I will prefer the lock hills though I haven't tried it with acqua panna

Option-O Lagom 01 Discussion

Ode + SSP Lab Sweet user; considering upgrade to Lagom P64/P100/P-01

I figured I'd come back and share where I landed if others who are considering a similar upgrade come across this post. I made the plunge and went with the Lagom 01 with 98mm omni burrs. I am just 1 week into ownership of the grinder but am very happy with what I'm tasting. Much more clarity and separation

Profitec Pro 800, won't heat after power outage

What is the line voltage when this happens? It could be too low for the PID to operate. I guess you will know if it works when the power service has been restored
