Hi Everyone
I am fairly new to home espresso so i have a few questions with dialling in my DL Rocky and VBM jnr.
I have been doing a bit of reading on here and see that most grind on demand and add approx 18-20 grm of beens for a double basket, however when i do this it only 1/2 3/4 fills my basket. so am i grinding too fine?
I notice when i grind beans from my hopper i seam to use a fair bit of bean to fill my basket i measured about 35 - 40 grms of beans.
Maybe i am doing it all wrong? Should i be grinding a bit courser and tamping harder?
So i am a little confused to where i am going wrong, I have a espro tamp and just ordered a pullman barista for a much better fit as mine is just not right!
I am looking to upgrade my grinder to a Mazzer mini or go all out and get a Macap M4d. Maybe this will help?
Any pointers would be much appreciated or maybe a gentle shove may be needed to point me in the right direction.
