Hello fellow snobs ,
Now i have been floating round this forum for a while . Most my coffee making is involved up in the pilbara for work so its all manual coffee processes , i have an aeropress , and electric Moka and a minipresso . Now on my week off i am trying my hand at using a semi auto so went and bought a second hand Sunbeam 6910 and i am using a Sunbeam Em0480 grinder i already had. I make coffee that is considered drinkable but not knock out. Always very thin crema even though using beans that were roasted 3 days prior . Is there any tips that guys that have used the 6910 before can point me in . I am still having trouble dialing in my grinder , i am trying to be consistent with 18 grams in the double basket and sometimes water just gushes through , sometimes its ok , sometimes the pressure gauge goes straight to red. I made a coffee that pushed through between the red and dark brown today . Made a better looking crema ( though a little bitter i think ) . Just someone that can point me in the right direction would be fantastic . I would love to have a top of the line machine and one day i may , but might aswell master this before i make the next step .
Regards
Paul
