at the moment, i currently am using a crappy super old sunbeam em3500. i recently bought an Iberital Challenge with the intention of upgrading to a silvia or better in the future. Now since i got the grinder, my coffees have been tasting much better, but NOTHING like I would like. I have tried a range of coffee beans, and even bought some beans from Kafenio cafe in Cronulla (as mentioned in the Sydney cafe thread). I would at least expect my coffees to resemble the cafe flavour, but its not even close!! My grind is correct (and ive tried various fineness) and my milk texturing is fine, but still doesnt taste right >
my conclusion - my machine is just too crap to produce a decent flavour. Am i right in saying this, or could it be another factor?
P.S. when i say my grind is right, i mean its extracted ok. the shots do often have bubbles in them which would lead to me questioning the machine.
sorry for the rant. please help!
