And "Barista Sebastian", it is quite evident that YOU YOURSELF know very little about coffee, or even the machine you're using.
If you look at the pressure gauge, it doesn't ramp up to 9 Bars for about 10 seconds after you activate the lever, making your "perfect" 25 second shot, more like a weak, watery 15 second pour.
Don't give us some bullcrap about "light crema"; your shot ran way too fast. Face it.
What are you guys talking about....like the guy says....the shot was 25 seconds......the crema looked good. It was filmed from such a distance with the group handle in the way that you wouldn't even be able to tell whether it is watery or not......just moaning for the sake of it. It looked a great shot!
Well sorry but that's not true, look at the timer, start at 44 seconds and i end it in 1.09 that's 25 seconds and the perfect amount for the waterquantity in this cup.
so tha shot is good. Americans are used to a more darker crema but if you go to Italy or Spain they dont have that extremely dark tinted crema but more caramell like which i prefer.
(but what does make the crema look thinner is the 2 spouts with 1 cup of 8 gr. and i did adjust the temp to 95 which makes a thiny tat better coffee)
Whats with running so much water before your pull, isn't that one of the main benefits of the double boiler, that you don't need to flush? I agree with the previous post, the shots look very watery, do all of us a favour who can't afford one of these machines and at least use a decent bean.
Sorry, but it's obvious you really don't know coffee.
And i'm also very very very sorry i CAN afford it.
Seriously, work with the machine first, this is a high class Napoletan espresso blend and grinded in a Macap M5, with goed timing, tamping and set in a warm cup, this is a good result.
The only reason i let it flush is to let you see the difference between a dual boiler or a HX machine.
I'm not convinced, but carry on as you were. The vigorous off screen tapping heard preempted what was to come out of the spouts anyway. Maybe 94c is too hot for your "Napoletan" blend thus the thin cremaless liquid falling from the spouts.
Shot was great, think is because of the movie quality that is looks watery because the shot was very nice in crema, caramel tinted, so perfect balance.
But it also depends on the type of coffee you use how thick the crema is of course

Ahaha, the sound of your espresso hitting the cups sounds as watery as my piss entering the toilet bowl.
Get some better beans please.

well i think the crema looks fine myself.
looks yummy,
maybe the grind wasnt as fine as these other viewers might like .
so they can just waste their own time watching a perfectly fair video.

its not the video quality, the grind was to coarse and it ran to fast, way to fast
