Thanks Chris, that's a great summary for a newbie like me.
My problem at the moment is that we are throwing another variable into the mix by buying different beans each time from the supermarket.
As I said earlier, I think we should now be starting to buy beans from a reputable roaster/seller, selecting a taste description that sounds nice to us.
Then using that as a base, work on the grind, dose, and timing until we feel we have reached the best taste.
I would have to be the one to do that, as my wife prefers a flat white.
Thanks again everyone for all the help and advice (and not flaming me for buying from the supermarket
).
