First post!
I recently bought a Unico Splendor at Cosmorex in Canberra. They are always very helpful and Im really excited with the new purchase. I am new to machines with the E61 and the Splendor specifically. I have a question concerning making an espresso.
Basically, Im concerned that the resulting puck is a bit wet and sloppy. The extraction time in total to get about 30mls is between 30-40 seconds, so a bit on the slow side. Im fairly confident I have the grind setting correct, Im just wondering whether Im underdosing or overdosing and/or tamping incorrectly. Any pointers on this would be fantastic, alternatively any specific tips for this machine (idiosyncrasies) would be highly welcome too.
For what its worth, Im using Cosmorex Blue blend which Im grinding on my Rocky Rancilio (doserless) on setting 9.
