Troubleshooting Common Questions
Why is my espresso brewing too fast?
Check grind size (should be fine), dose amount (18-20g for double shot), and tamping pressure (30lbs consistent pressure).
How do I achieve better milk foam?
Use fresh, cold milk, keep steam tip just below surface initially, then plunge deeper as milk expands and heats.
What causes bitter or sour espresso?
Bitter shots often indicate over-extraction (grind coarser, reduce time). Sour shots suggest under-extraction (grind finer, increase time).
