Thanks for that input @Mike_Lima_Papa I tried different grinder adjustments but you are right, the puck gives less back pressure with singles then with robusto blends, taste is fine nevertheless

I believe I misunderstood what you meant by "singles". I thought you meant "single shots" (i.e. ~9g of coffee per shot) but you meant single origin coffees.

SO's generally have higher density, giving them a lower total surface area per gram from which to extract goodness. I normally compensate by grinding finer, but you can also add more coffee if there's enough room in your filter basket. Let your taste buds guide you

This thread is so educational, I love all the coffee science and geekery!

Ok nice, thx Anne, already searching for recipes, seems to be quite easy to make, looks like a perfect Xmas morning meal

First time I’ve seen or heard of them, and they look amazing!

[sabergirl]

It is really easy to make! My dad used to make them for us when I was little.

It's a Yorkshire pudding in English.  Essential with Roast Beef….

I love Yorkshire puddings (popovers), but haven’t seen one that large.  Thanks for the info G!

[Giles]

We either make one large one, or lot's of small ones…..

Looks like a tasty shot, @Mike_Lima_Papa
Great mug too! I think I need to go get a companion for my 20th anniversary mug…

Last good morning coffee shot of the year. Enjoy the weekend and have good start into the new year, folks!

Looking forward to a 2023 full of Coffee nerd talk with all of you.

Pipo brought me the last “Bike” mug they had at IH Germany. Priceless!
