I hate to admit y'all right, but it was the grind. I maxed out my grinder and worked backwards, no channeling, 25-30 second extraction. Beautiful coffee. I can finally rest.

    Congrats and enjoy! It’s a deep and rewarding rabbit hole.

  4. It always is.

    Remember, the more rest, the finer you’ll have to grind.

    Spurts are not channeling, you can’t see channeling. The only thing you are watching when you grind finer is a liquid that has higher viscosity, therefore higher surface tension, therefore a more uniform column of liquid. Don’t look at how it extracts, just taste it and compare tastes. Learn to dial in by taste.

    Congratulations! I’m glad it worked out for you!
