| Brew: Note | Daily Shot Log: Doma Carmela’s blend | Baratza 40 | Basket Low Flow [goal] continue to understand flow vs pressure in OEPF profile + software guidance. [prep] clean RDT, WDT, and self leveling tamp. [pull] a per Slinky profile. [milk] well disciplined on aeration, and incorporation. [art] decent, good mixing but poor was a little sloppy. Got an ok heart without clean lines. [taste] probably the best yet with this coffee, but still a little lacking compared to more recent beans. Perhaps it is still not quite to resting potential yet. Smooth and rich but still not quite as delicious and the finish is both not as intense as the Joe’s but not super smooth either. I do think flow profiling seems to winning out over pressure profiling on basis of taste though. |
