New Timemore 064s paired up with the Gemilai Owl. Still dialing in my beans- my first shot was sour, but it had more body and flavor than usual. I’m also still figuring out the Owl and will probably lower the OPV to 9 soon, but I wanted to test it out without doing that to see how things would taste.

I upgraded from a Bambino and Encore ESP, which treated me really well and were a great set up. I honestly did not feel the need to upgrade but just wanted to experiment with a flat burr and PID.

(pls ignore the dust on my tamping mat, that’s all I notice when I look)

    How satisfied you are with the machine and the grinder?

    I just got the same machine as well and ordered the same normcore stuff on Amazon (walnut handles though) yesterday because it was all 50% off!

    What bar is it currently pulling at for you? I just pulled the side panel off yesterday to mess with the OPV they say it doesn’t have to try to turn it down some and get closer to 9 bar.

    Feels like this setup has a life. So eye-soothing. everything from the plants to the coffee gear creates such a calming vibe!

    Nice – I’m really debating between the timemore or niche zero. I’m espresso only and thinking of going for a rancillo pro x.

    A dusty tamping mat!? The audacity to even consider posting something like that here.
