I really have learned to love so much about espresso. Until I started stepping up from a Mr Coffee PPF, to an Ascaso to now a Rancilio Silvia v3. Now I just dread making espressos in the morning because they come out so incredibly different each time. One day they will taste great, the next the channel like crazy or come out in the same manner, but taste disgusting. And then I decided I wanted to start making microfoam. Now I've added another level of stress. The steam power is so crazy strong the milk is hot long before it's turned to latex paint and the swirl is so ferocious it always spills straight out of the little 8oz frothing pitcher.
I'm now sitting here drinking this gross milk drink that honestly would have been better at Starbucks (and that's saying a lot). I'm depressed, stressed, frustrated. Is there a weekly meeting I can go to?
Rancilio V3 with Auber PID, which I installed.
Baratza Vario
17g of grounds = ~30ish grams of drink in 30secs.
To do: buy VST basket and maybe new screen...
Honestly, if I could just get the microfoam down I'd be happy.
