Subject: 17s shots but OK
|
Just wanted to mention the important issue of shot timing. I am getting very nice 2 oz double shots from the Nuova Simonelli Oscar/Mazzer mini combo and fresh roasted espresso blend available locally- I'm gauging this by the look (red-brown blotchy crema) and taste. However, I'm getting this most often with about 15-17s pull. My target is 25s but I'm not there yet (just got the grinder). Should I stick or shoot for 25s and what am I missing if I stay at 15-17s? Thanks, John

Dial the grind out to 25 seconds, and see what it tastes like :) > Just wanted to mention the important issue of shot timing.
