Hi all
I am a newbie so please go easy. Looking forward to learning more now I've joined here.
I've upgraded to BDB this weekend after owning the POS that is Sunbeam Barista Max. It's already shocked me how much a half-assed espresso on the BDB is an improvement on the Sunbeam.
Anyways, I seemed to have already got a handle on a single shot with fresh roasted beans (not supermarket).
However I am completely struggling with double shots. The pour is so quick - grind is fine (tried anywhere from like 16 down to 1 size) on the Breville Smart Grinder. I'm using the Single wall basket.
I understand "CUP" equals "SHOT" so I'm using 2 cup basket, 2 cup button. Is that correct?
I've also mucked around with different tamps - no luck.
I'm sure it's something obvious. What is the problem here?
