| Brew: Note | [goal] refinement in grind size to target 36g yield in 30–32 seconds to open up bean’s fruit aromatics and sweetness. [prep] went well. I think I have decided that a light tap after DWT does little harm to the quality of tamp and eases workflow. [pull] very nice and was able to follow plan nearly to the letter well within the 30 second time window. In fact perhaps the plan time is overly generous. [milk] good steaming today very little to report. [art] better than most of my recent attempts. That is pretty close to acceptable. [taste] not as strong as yesterday but with much more caramel and creme soda. Only a tough of roughness on the finish. |
