#coffee friends: I need help with our Bambino Plus #espresso machine. I gave it a full cleaning, top to bottom, and tried out a new coffee. I ground 18g in our Baratza Encore ESP at 14, tamped etc., and got a bitter shot. 40g out in about 15s.

I ground another 18g at 12 (finer) and got 32g out in 12s, but this time it was very sour. Naked portafilter both times.

I know this isn't the most precise machine and I'm using automatic timings but it still feels very confusing to me.

Sooho. Die #Espresso-Macchina wurde turnusmäßig entkalkt und hat einen neuen Filter bekommen.

Der Geschmackstest ist gerade im Gange …

… und …

🤔 Mooommment: schweeer zu sagen … .Da werde ich besser nochmal nachtesten, glaube ich.

I went to look for a #dosing cup this morning, hoping to reduce mess when grinding #coffee for #espresso. And I found myself struck by an interesting detail.

When you look at product listings for dosing cups, they fall into two main groups. Group A is mostly-name-brand dosing cups priced in roughly the $25-$35 range, in either deep-drawn stainless steel or cast aluminum, with product photos showing how one would
of course use a dosing cup.

It's the other group that's interesting, in a head-scratchy way. These are mostly taper-drawn stainless steel cups from dozens of no-name brands clearly reselling the same three or four cups, for roughly $8-$15, and what is interesting about them is their product photos. Because the product photos on this tier's listings make it clear that while the vendor clearly understands that a dosing cup has something to do with coffee,
they have only the vaguest idea what it's actually for. So you have photos showing someone transferring whole coffee beans, for no apparent reason, into a dosing cup with a spoon, without a scale in sight. Or... someone pouring ground coffee from the dosing cup directly into a coffee cup. And then there's the photos where I can't quite figure out what they're trying to accomplish.

It's really kind of bizarre.

If you’re looking for a coffee drink that’s refreshing, bold, and a little unexpected, it’s time to give the espresso tonic a try! It’s refreshing, slightly sweet, and has a touch of citrus for the perfect caffeinated summer beverage. This two-ingredient drink combines rich and classic espresso with crisp tonic for a refreshing pick-me-up like no other.

Here's a #TrueStory I put to paper a few years ago. It was originally in #Italian, but I've since translated it so that I may share it with you.

Joe, do you want a coffee?

Sure, Pa

Every morning until I moved out of the house, my dad and I would have our daily #coffee routine. He would be the one to get up early, always, and would call out to me while I was still in bed. I would come downstairs to the wonderful smell of #espresso.
