Re: Ethiopian aspirin - bitter espresso - wet puck
I think the guide Im following (coincidentally) is the one you wrote, Mal. Aaron forwarded all the documentation with the machine.
Incidentally, the schematic you drew of the PID is really very clear and easy for even a Jaycar Eggtimer head like me with only very slight knowledge of circuits more complicated than the flashing boing boing light I use to amaze and impress my friends.
And after setting the grinder at 0.6 for these Costa Rican beans, overdosing, leveling, then tamping hard, Im starting to get closer to the optimum pour times with increasingly more delicious ristretto results.

. I dont know why it is exactly, but most people seem to start off with grind settings that are too fine and then try to work back from there..... much easier to go the other way.
.... the fires already going, the fur babies sorting out their places in front of it and about to knock up a brew of Grendels Zimbabwe roast. Couldnt be better ;D,
