Hi Guys,
I currently use a Azkoyen Vienna machine at work with Rancilio PFs and baskets. This machine has been paired up with a Super Jolly.
Currently I dose a double basket with 20g of coffee and tamp consistently, with the grinder set to the coarser side of the mazzer markings on the collar. When I say coarse, I only mean it lies in the "coarse" region by only a few millimeters but the grind is by no means coarse. The zero setting on the grinder is way too fine!
My question is, am I over dosing this double basket too much? I found today that most of my shots were burnt! I take the 30sec/30mL rule with a grain of salt. Its the quality in the end of the cup that matters. But usually Im spot on with my 30mL pours coming in at around 27/28 seconds. the puck is usually very wet with some signs of channeling.
Should I readjust the doser to give say 18 or 19grams of coffee rather than 20? The only reason I dose so much is because I seem to get blonding at say the 17 to 20 second mark of the pour.
As an aside, I have no problems locking in the PF at 20g but anymore and I will unable to....The Azkoyen Vienna seems to have a very high group in stark contrast to Expobars which have very low groups.
Cheers,
Dave
