      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  🙂

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

                                    Great mug too! I think I need to go get a companion for my 20th anniversary mug…

                                    Use it or lose it.
