Morning Gentlepeople.
As a coffee newbie I am having some small issues while trying to improve my game. I have a Oracle Touch and subscrube to a local monthly coffee delivery, so my beans change weekly.
My issue is that the grind setting is incredibly different from bean to bean. With my last bag, grind 14 gave a perfect 1:2,5 ratio. With a different bean today, I had to discard two cups before learning that grind size 3 gave me the same ratio. 14 gave me 1:3,5 which tasted rubbish.
The problem is that I got channeling and very little crema.
I guess the questions are: do different beans require completely different ratios or am I doing something very wrong?
Should I accept a very high ratio to avoid channeling on certain beans?
Or should my timer be lower on certain beans?
Thanks in advance for any help and have a great cup this morning!
He never said it is. Most people don’t think it is.
We want NATO as a security, should we ever need it.
It’s like paying for insurance: let’s hope you never need it, but are glad to should the need arise. It’s not hard to understand, mate.
We all hope NATO can sit idly by and make plans they never ever need to execute.
