Back in my days as a barista we would purge the steam wand before wiping it. The hot water from the steam helped to clean the wand. That’s just my two cents and that was years ago.

Do You really think that an entire desk of things are necessary to drink a good espresso at home? I worked in an Italian Espresso Bar and I can tell you that for drinking a good espresso the machine must cost thousands dollars and it have to do hundred espressos in one day. In the afternoon you'll drink a really good coffee. Espresso at home will be always a compromise. With a 100 dollars machine it will be better or different than a coffee from a Moka.

I had my stilosa for 2 weeks with a normcore bottomless filter. I was pulling perfect shots, then suddenly have spraying. I don't have a nice thick chabnel of espresso it's thin with spraying all over. Have you ever had this issue? I've had my machine for 1 months. This started 2 weeks in.

I just got mine for Christmas. Pick up a naked basket. Though, I have been at 16 grams, runs a little fast. I will try dosing 17 then 18 grams, to see how it tastes. Found fresh roasted coffee works best. Using the WDT tool and tamper but I do not have the other one you used. I like how you did your frothing, I will give that a try. I have been angling it a lot to create the vortex. Great video thanks!

@commie281

Should be weight of the coffee to water. If you put in 18g of coffee you would aim for 36g of espresso in the cup. You would need to do calculations. You look up the density of water, go to an omni calculator that finds volume from density and weight, and then you have the exact volume of espresso you need to meet the ratio. This is also good for converting weight to volume or vice versa for random things when you are able to figure out the density of whatever you are converting

Hey! So I just recently purchased the stilosa and love it! I was looking to up my game and got the bottomless portafilter, 51mm. As I read in some comments, people noticed some leaking and spraying if portafilter isnt pulled farther than the original portafilter does, and I had similar issues. I got it to work for the most part when I put this portafilter to around a 4 oclock position as opposed to 6 oclock where it’s supposed to be. However, my shots are not pulling well, they are dark but have so much less creaminess than the original filter has! I was hoping you had some knowledge on this issue? Any advice is amazing!!! Thanks!

When judging this, you need to keep in mind, that the original basket that comes with the machine is pressurized and creates a fake crema. So a non pressurized basket producing less is not necessarily a bad sign.

@iambreeeezy
Жыл бұрын
Try a finer grind setting! Watery extract can usually mean the coffee grounds aren’t fine enough to slow the flow of the water. I suggest a better coffee grinder if you don’t have one yet! It should be okay, even if you modify the original portafilter, you should still be able to get the same results, as long as the coffee is ground fine enough.

I have the 3420, my advice to avoid channeling is to not use the distribution tool. After the WDT step, give it a tap on the table and then directly tamp. A 51mm 1.0m puck screen with a spray using an RDT spray will help with water flow distribution, and of course if you don't have one already, an IMS 51mm 26mm length (16/17g dosage) or 32mm length (19/20g dosage) precision basket is really important depending on your bean profile and grinder capabilities. There is also a stainless steel steam wand attachment you can get for the 3420/stilosa that replaces the rubber wand/zip tie method, without the need to manually upgrade to the rancilio steam wand mod that a lot of modders try. Those changes overall will give you very consistent espresso shot pulls and a much sturdier approach to making home latte art drinks!

@slicedbanana23
Жыл бұрын
@@Ashhong1no worries! the distribution only levels the top layer, which compacts the puck unevenly and can lead to channeling ehen the water hits the top layer. It used to be a widely used tool before WDT came about, and those that have tried both, including myself have found the distribution tool to either be of no benefit or to cause slightly inconsistent shot pulling. So the standard puck prep has now suggested just to fluff up the grounds and direct tamp
