So, I’ve had my Silvia for around 6 months now and I think I can best describe the experience as like being with an ex-girlfriend of mine… At times it’s magic, the sex is amazing and you actually start thinking that the universe bought you together and all that stuff. Then the next minute you’re hiding the carving knifes and skewers in the kitchen so that you don’t kill each other.
When the silvia is good, it’s great. At times I’m pulling shots that a couple of my local cafes would be proud of. Other times, I’m thinking that a pod machine isn’t actually a bad idea.
I’m running a Sunbeam ES480 grinder.
Any tips/suggestions on getting more consistent shots? I usually stick with my Genovese beans, bought once weekly.
The machine is pre-warmed for around 15/20 minutes prior to use and I temp surf prior to extraction.
Should I be looking to measure the dose? Any other tips for greater consistency?
Thanks in advance
