| Brew: Note | Daily Shot Log: Doma Carmela’s blend | Baratza 36 | Basket BEP [goal] reproduce excellent Carmela’s blend shot with Slinky profile at 2.25 ratio. [prep] RDT, WDT, self leveling tamp. [pull] Consistent and steady, a little less resistance that a couple days ago but followed the profile well and the lever action between the 2 shots is nearly identical. [milk] nice and creamy in the flat-white aeration territory. Very glossy and well integrated hit temp of 65C almost perfectly. [art] lovely, funky little banded heart. Not technically great but I like the exaggerated wobble. [taste] very similar to my best shot with this bean at the same ratio. I am wondering what the differences might be and if they are more a matter of bean age or variations on the grind, etc. |
