Brew: NoteDaily Shot Log: Doma Carmela’s blend | Baratza 40 | Basket Low Flow [goal] test new Silky profile with longer pre infusion time. [prep] RDT, WDT, Self leveling tamper. [pull] followed profile well, good resistance and feel. Although low pressure still translates to extended time especially with 10 second pre infusion. [milk] very even and silk smooth. [art] Not bad got a little banding and decent centering. Helps to put a little more effort into the pour. [taste] overall this was a more cohesive and well rounded shot. Some sweetness and definitely richness. I think I may be tasting just a little dryness instead of the rough end due to extended shot time. Overall this was a win but 2nd stage is almost non existent and the shot is probably running too long at 36 - 40 seconds and the profile is still not quite right.
