Yesterday i got a used rancilio Silvia with some tools for a good price. I want to convert it with a gaggimate. Someone has done something with some pid controller which I have not noticed. Had the hand mill for filter coffe already.
Last evening I experimented with cheap storbought decaf, and shock and horror. It was so dark roast and so old, that there were no notes other than “roasted”.
This morning I tried some actually good coffee and it was nice for a first try.
Look a “flower”… My late art is lacking.
I have loads to learn and loads to play
Your latte art is significantly better than mine. I tend to just freestyle fuck around and see what shape happens lol.
Your flower looks similar to my flowers!
The second one looked better
Uhh
He’s trying!
It’s beautiful!
How many grams of coke do you usually measure onto that scale for a standard latte?
None. My coffe basket has a capacity of 15 grams, so I measure 15 grams of coffee.
Cool set up, thanks for sharing! Can I ask which grinder you’re using here?
Kingrinder K7
I know this a more filter focussed grinder but the only one I have that is somewhat espresso capable.
But then again I like sour espresso.
1Zpresso, either a K or J max i think.I am incorrect. No idea.
I just gave away my old and basic Gaggia that I hadn’t even touched in years. Just because I’ve limited my coffee intake to one cup per day and that cup comes in the morning and it’s made on a V60.
