Im just wondering if anyone else with this set up would share their dosing technique with me.
I feel like I may have over complicated things but Im finding if I just dose to the top of the basket and level off with my finger I get channeling etc, If I dose so much into the basket that I can do 2 settling taps and level off with my finger than the dose is too much and the pf is difficult to put in the group head. At the minute Im dosing to the top of the pf then doing two settling taps and then grinding again to the top and levelling off with my finger. Id rather not have to do this though as I feel it creates two levels within the puck.
Anyway...as must be obvious, Im perhaps over-thinking this so Id be interested if anyone could inform me of a simple way of achieving good results with a mazzer mini/giotto. Im reluctant to start weighing beans as its not really my style. Im looking for a volume method.
