Still newbie. But I thought I got my technique spot on withgood extraction, crema and mousetail pours with the stock Silvia ridged basket(14g)
Decided to give VST basket (18g ridgeless) a go and I havenever got it right.
I double checked my dosing, weighed it to double check. Tampwith 58mm pullman
Sometimes I get a nice trickle/pour for the first 10 sec andthen the next 10sec is like a waterfall (gusher).
I have read the VST thread and I’m sure the VST punishespoor technique.
The other thing which was mentioned is that a custom Pullmanwith the basket will eliminate the channelling at the edges??
Dun really wanna go down the custom road.
Wonder if I should chuck it in the cupboard altogether?
