I realize this is typical for coffee shop espresso prep (compared to at home) but I honestly can't help but cringe at the puck prep and shot pulling...no weighing to properly dose, no wdt used, no pre-infusion.... *shudder*
Yeah I liked the content overall but was surprised so see no measurement of the output yield. Brewing only by time is not typically a valid approach because it's all about the flow rate and the input/output ratiod need to be respected more.
I don’t even like coffee because it’s bitter but my mom got an expression machine and it fascinates me so I’m doing my research hehe. Maybe I’ll like coffee now
@@ArtistiCoffeeRoasters drank my first full cup of coffee in my life the other day! It was so much less bitter! Seems like the machine and my family dialing it in helps!
Great tips but one you always emphasise is the recipe. Once it’s nailed, coffee tastes the best, especially if you are using Champion blend 😊 But let me tell you that I applied same recipe to Placebo for that after dinner coffee and results were so good as well.
Yes, the recipe is certainly important and will vary depending on many aspects. Glad to hear that it's worked out for you with our Placebo blend :) How long have you been drinking our Placebo ?
Congrats on another excellent video of training and explaining how to make and serve a better coffee to my friends and family. I am learning from your videos. Keep them rolling. Regards, Leon from RSA.
Thank you! I would recommend to people to watch videos more than once. Come back to a video and maybe you’ll pick up some thing you missed the first time. I did with this video.
NO NO NO NO NO NO NO THE FIRST THING YOU FIX IS YOUR WATER! You may find yourself in the endless chase of beans, grinds, temperatures and recipes, only to find out you coffee is bitter because your water is too hard.
Water the main component to a coffee, all the geeks in the industry and up taking about it at the bbq’s! 😂 but not everyone can understand it and is willing to address the issues
@@ArtistiCoffeeRoasters It fixed the problem for me. I was trying everything, changing beans, roasts, grinds, prep, doses, ratios, temperatures, brew times, with the same result - Bitter coffee. Until I eventually tried brewing with different water, et voilá, that was the problem all along. Without being a geek about it, that should be the first thing you change, before trying anything else. As bottled water (like a water for toddlers is a good bet) is much cheaper than new unimodal flat burr grinder.
Is backflushing with detergent and cleaning portafilter and baskets with Pulicaff once a week enough? Or should I actually unscrew the group head regularly?
@@ArtistiCoffeeRoasters Thank you for getting back to my question. I reckon you guys should do a video about specialty grade beans and non-specialty grade.
Sure, if you follow us regularly you would be aware to keep the content flowing it’s been had with our team out with covid. It was just me doing it all. 👍🏻
