Hi,
I now have a naked PF and am using it with a double basket. Grinding with a Breville smart grinder I am finding I have a consistant pattern of extraction that has a dead spot on the right side of the PF.
The naked PF is slightly more loose than the Giotto one so needs to be turned more to tighten in position. So if the group was a clock the dead spot occurs at about 2-3 oclock.
I use an ezytamp for consistant tamping, am grinding into the pf in two lots (2 taps after each), and level off the coffee with a straight edge (also tried a small mound).
With the shower screen off the water appears to flow evenly so Im sure its my technique :
.
How do you Giotto owners dose for a double? Id like to use leveling but am thinking that its still a bit muddy after the extraction even though there is a mark from the showerscreen.
If any of that makes sense Id appreciate some feedback
. Might post a pic if I can arrange one.
