I wonder how many folks who are being pedantic about fines, vst baskets, and tamp pressure are willing to work with a sieve and remove those pesky fines from their grinds...

Actually, I did do this a few years ago; first with my Rocky D/L, then a La San Marco (ex cafe) with original burrs and then with a new set.Originally posted by LaughingAtFate View PostI wonder how many folks who are being pedantic about fines, vst baskets, and tamp pressure are willing to work with a sieve and remove those pesky fines from their grinds...
The intention wasn't to do this for every shot, but just to get a handle on the percentage of fines per shot and then comparing Old burrs with new. Can't see the point of doing it for every shot but the comparison between Old burrs and New was quite definitive and justified the purchase of new burrs originally based on the quality I was getting in the cup - Which is where it counts of course, the rest was just curiosity...

I have contemplated doing it, unlike Mal contemplation was as far as the project went, I would think to sieve fines regularly would rapidly escalate you into the world of geekdom.Originally posted by LaughingAtFate View PostI wonder how many folks who are being pedantic about fines, vst baskets, and tamp pressure are willing to work with a sieve and remove those pesky fines from their grinds...
I suspect evenly distrubuted fines play their part by filling the voids between the regularly sized particles, in other words add to the extraction.
