Ok, so its about as dodgy as a line gets and it comes from the movie "Black Hawk Down" where theyre out in the battlefield and one of the Privates make a coffee for one of the Sergeants...
But I digress...
We were given some Merlo coffee for Christmas and it was raved about but knowing we dont have a grinder, :exclamation they had the beans ground for us.
Now, when I go to put it into my EM6910, I pack as hard as I can ( :exclamation :exclamation )and I cant seem to get it to make the gauge rise to anywhere near what Ive been able to with (another brand) of coffee grinds. And the coffee tastes washed out - and Ive increased from 2 to 3, maybe 4, cups a day to get the same caffeine hit Im used to.
I fear that the grind may be too harsh for my machine (hence the dodgy movie quote from an otherwise exceptional movie).
Can I put these coffee grinds through the double walled insert for my group head and will that improve the coffee, or do I just grin and bear it until Ive used it all?
With thanks,
Middo

Just wait until you taste fresh beans, ground well and immediately made into a coffee.
