Im not normally and straight espresso drinker but I’m trying to dial in my new and PID’d Silvia at the moment and tasted 50 or so in the last week without any real idea of what it’s meant to taste like. So I thought I really should find out what a "GOOD" espresso shot is meant to taste like. Im not far from northcote so I went over with my GF for lunch on satdy and Bean Ground & drunk and recommended by a few members here.
I orded a straight espresso shot and a top looking chicken focaccia. Im pleased to say that the coffee was excellent (think i might be heading towards becoming an espresso drinker) as was the focaccia and the staff where friendly to me and my "I just was an espresso to see what is taste like, but I’ll have a latte to drink" request. I was a little worried about the response I was going to get.
And best of all I think I have my Silvia PID dialed at 109.5C, Measured the pressure 9.5 Bar with no mod as discussed here http://coffeesnobs.com.au/YaBB.pl?num=1142580933 and the coffee taste great and is repeatable.
Thanks Matt
