I started playing as Dennis said with the bowl and spoon and for the next week or so thats what I am back to while the Hottop is in for brain surgery

Back to the OP Yep grind varies from bean to bean and it also varies across ther life of a given bag for home use where it may be opened for a week to consume. Also variations due to humidity as well. The key here is to remember if you do try different beans roughly what you needed last time as to grind to save creating sink shots for the first one or two.

Blonding yep stop it if you see it, go back to playing with grind (normally finer to fix) dose and tamp.
The key to all of this is do YOU like what you are producing and if you try varying ONE THING at a time does it taste better or worse.
Enjoy the journey
