• TIPS and instruction for use Grind Consistency: Consistency in grind size is crucial. Ensure that your coffee grounds are uniform in size to promote an even extraction. Dose Properly: Use an appropriate amount of coffee grounds in the portafilter basket. This can vary depending on the size of your basket, but a common starting point is around 18-20 grams of coffee for a standard double shot.
• Distribution: Distribute the coffee grounds evenly in the portafilter basket using a distribution tool or your fingers. This helps ensure that water flows through the coffee bed uniformly. Tamp Evenly: Tamp the coffee grounds evenly and firmly using a calibrated tamper. Apply consistent pressure to create a level surface.
• Check for Channeling: One of the main benefits of a bottomless portafilter is that it allows you to see if channeling occurs during the extraction. Channeling happens when water finds a path of least resistance through the coffee puck, leading to uneven extraction. If you notice spurts of espresso coming from one area of the portafilter, it may indicate channeling.
• Adjust Grind and Technique: Use the visual feedback from the bottomless portafilter to adjust your grind size and technique. If the extraction is too fast (under-extracted), try a finer grind or adjust your tamping pressure. If it's too slow (over-extracted), try a coarser grind or adjust your dosing.
