    Hi all

    Nah, make a shower screen with the holes arranged in a pattern so that the Coffee Snobs logos comes out whenever you pull a shot. It just "appears" in the crema :-) Thats a God shot :-)

    A photo of my coffee-photography studio??? Do you mean the set-up? That would be 2 backyard floodlights plus aluminium foil perched all over Ms Silvia and the kitchen bench! Nothing flash (But boy does the black portafilter handle get hot with 2kW of light!!!)
    As for the shotglass, youre right Mal it was from Coffeeparts!

    Im with Robusto - the black stuff, when the shot settles should look the same each time pretty much...now the pour itself and the shot in the glass before settling, now thats a different story. I get shots from time to time where it all seems to cover together and I really love watching the shot pour and settle and then the crema colours and distribution on top, but whether thats a God shot I dont know - great pour, right time, fantastic colour depths to the crema and no pitting in the crema, BUT I would have thought what is a God shot depends on whose judging it...its all based on perception and taste which will often differ from person to person, either significantly or in nuance.

    Cheers

    Hey,

    As it happens, Ive been playing with my new camera and trying to take espresso shots.  

    Is this what you mean by beneath the foamy stuff?

    PS This is a dodgy shot made with very dodgy beans; I threw it down the sink after I took the pics.  

    Cheers

    Im sure not Remy!! Its what it tastes like that matters! To be honest, im a bit obsessed about photos at the moment so I changed the speed of the extraction to suit my photos!

    The beans were ones for the bin; 17minutes to FC because I stuffed up big time. They smelled yuck and I made myself have one sip (ewwww) they taste truly awful! So I figured id take some photos before binning them

    Also its a bit hard to concentrate on making a good shot when Im worrying about the camera on the tripod (I dont want my baby to fall to the ground!) and trying to stop the lights and bits of aluminium foil (for reflectors) falling down, and then locking the PF in place and fixing the focus up (time ticking for the grounds). Um, im rambling now.

    I LOVE watching the espresso settling; its called the guinness effect and its beautiful.

    Anybody taken any pics of there best Espresso being pulled. Nevermind the pretty stuff on top, lets see what beneath the foamy stuff?
    OK OK, all I wanted to see was some good shots of espresso, as a newbie the use of the word "GOD" was a BIG mistake. You guys are serious alright !!

    Promise Ill be careful with the wording from now on I did dont want to have to stay after school......... :
