Hi Team,
I have been using my ECM Sync for around 6 months. Without going into too much detail, I have managed to get it dialled in with grinder beans from Woolies. The grinder setting on the MahX54 was 6, 15.5 seconds for 19g.
However we changed over to Vittoria (again from Woolies) and we have had to drop the grinder setting to 1.5, for 19.5 seconds, to get 19g. Even then, it spirts and splashes out of the bottomless portafilter, sprays up the wall, etc, etc.
Not sure if I am doing something wrong, but i've been tried a whole bag of beans through the grinder at different settings and i can't get close. It either comes out like a fire hose, or it doesn't run...
What am I doing wrong!
The machine is 6 months old, has never been cleaned and runs on tap water. I am investing in a descaler, grinder cleaner and espresso cleaner tonight. As well as a 20g VST ridgeless basket. Any tips would be appreciated!
