| Brew: Note | Daily Shot Log: Joe Coffee Amsterdam | Baratza 40 | Basket Low Flow [prep] little bit of mess but good WDT & tamp. [pull] traditional spring peaking out at just less that 7 bars. Very even. [milk] good steaming with excellent texture and I hit a perfect 65C. [art] quite nice. Even if I am not stressing it right now I can almost believe I am ready to get past the heart pattern. [taste] well between the lower temp, even < 7 bar extraction, and pulling a full 1:2 in < 30 seconds it wasn’t over harsh or aggressive. But I am not sure I am the biggest fan of even very good specialty dark style roasts. It still seams brash and un nuanced to me even though I thought I made it quite well this time with an unbelievable coarse grind for espresso. |
