BalanceFruity - but also a bitter after tastes
Notes:

In the shot glass this had a nice fruitiness , but that became quite diluted in the milk and there was still a drying after taste. It also lacked body and sweetness though it was quite interesting in a fruity way in the shot glass.

This is really consistent with the general problem I have beenhaving aover the last few months and I'm starting to suspect that my grinder may have shifted it's distribution to be much heavier in fines. A shift would be consistent with me having to grind finer for the same shot times while flow seems to be levelling off in a way that it didn't used to suggesting fines migration may be choking the shot. It also suggests I should try using a paper filter again, but I think thats a patch rather than a fix!

Not sure what to do tomorrow. Mayube add a paper filter and do something with much lower pressure and flow rate to see if that helps. Definitely remove the 9 bar peak pressurisation.
