Subject: Coffee Grounds left over


Ive had my silvia for about 6 months now and still am struggling with
proper shots. I have a Mini mazzer grinder and have experimented with
different types of coffee. my main problem is with the length of time
im pulling my shot. It is always fast. 15 seconds to pull 2-2.5oz.
So naturally I grind finer and now i have coffee grounds left over. Is
that a normal result(coffee in my espresso) or do i have another
problem at hand? Could I have too high of a pressure, filter insert
holes large, temperature not high enough, bad coffee....etc
