Steady State Castillo (Light) on 31 May 2022
19 g : 37.4 g (1:2.0) in 24.7 s
Niche Zero @ 14
Bean notes:

Cauca, Colombia. Natural.
Peach rings, dank, lychee.
Complex and juicy.

Notes:

Ground a little finer. Set final step flow rate to decrease slowly over time.

2nd frother almost dead — symptoms the same as the previous model.

A little salty, a little acidic. Aroma is V8-like, vegetal. More charcoal-chocolate than flavorful as the shot cools.

Aftertastes: Metallic, acidic, burnt mouth feeling. Also like thick unsweetened chocolate, with a little salt. All dissipated in 2-3 hours.
