Channeling...

I get the impression that some machines are more 'dose sensitive' than others.
My Perfetta is very dose sensitive and if I under or overdose I can guarantee that the result will be inferior.
If I get channelling it will generally be with an overdose. Underdosing produces a slightly thinner faster pour.
Sometimes I have two Demis under the double basket PF and only one spout will produce. I just shut off the pour and start again and immediately the other spout will deliver.
I take a lot of care to have precisely the right dose in the PF to get the best pour.

I used this test but used couscous instead- the particles are finer and you get a more accurate result.
It's great to know the level where your coffee is just clear of the shower screen
Also I agree with JamesM - i just time the shot from my grinder and do a single tamp. no fancy tapping or levelling. ( but i do a single twist and polish- beacuse i like that bit) Occassionally adjust the time if necessary.
I'm no expert mind you but getting consistent results....
