Ive just bought these 2 Sunbeam machines which I am pleased with.
Im not getting consistant results when I grind on the EM0480. Sometimes it seems to choke the machine, and others its running too quick.
The PF is filled the same amount each time. Im pretty certain Im tamping the same always. I have nearly gone through a bag of beans in 3 days. Is this considered a normal learning curve?
I would be interested to see what grinder setting others have when using these two machines together.
When I used the pre-ground coffee with the dual floor filters, Id press the double cup and get perfect results.
Also, I seem to use the double filter to make a mug of coffee. Is this considered to be too much coffee and make me "larger than life" if I keep this way. I find that the single filter is only good for a cup.
Perhaps I need practice. Although the DVD does state this! But to use 2/3 of a bag of Lavazza beans in this short time is way too quick.
I remember reading somewhere that one must expect to go through a bag of beans quickly when buying a new machine for fine tuning.
I have enrolled in the free Coffee course which no doubt will help.......but thats 3 weeks away.
Regards,
Rob
