Hi guys, I have a vbm junior and k3 push and have been making consistently good coffee with it for around 2 years and regularly back flushing. Lately my shots have been still 30ml in 30 seconds but have been weak tasting and the pour looks a lot thinner in consistency if that makes sense. I have not changed my dosing or tamping method. I have noticed that fresh beans about 4 days post roast pour great and taste great. But at about 2-3 weeks post roast this is what I'm getting. I used to get to about 5 weeks before I'd toss leftover beans and roast more. To be sure about roast I got some espresso wow from Andy and started using them 3 days post roast and were fantastic. About 3 weeks on and not so great again. I store beans in air tight container.
At a bit of a loss as to what in doing wrong all of a sudden
