Tiger Striping is generally considered to be an indicator of a good pour. Theres some good info on this and many other things via this link.... http://tinyurl.com/98kat.
Ive noticed that with all my shots Im getting tiger striping as it comes out of the spouts. But when I look at the puck I cant see any obvious channeling. Is this normal?
I do the usual finger level of the coffee and solid tamp with a decent tamper.
I guess its a bit hard to tell whats happening without a naked portafilter.
