The many, many failures of my first 2 weeks as an espresso machine owner. Channeling, timing, grind size, and my final settings. #coffee #homebarista #breville #brevillebaristapro #brevillebaristaprodialin #espressomachine #espresso #espressodialin

@crashm161قبل 3 أشهر This is very entertaining. Your faces are the same I made when I started dialing in my barista pro. Keep it up and make sure to just have fun!

@julbee4777قبل 4 أشهر Thank you for sharing your espresso “dialing in” journey with us. I have the Breville Pro on order and trying to learn as much in advance!

@311danil5قبل 6 أشهر your efforts are very appreciated, u have no idea. thank u so much!

@paranoidjd1351قبل 5 أشهر Having gotten one of these machines over Christmas, I'm at the start of the learning hill too. Your grind recommendations are really appreciated so will give them a whirl here too 1

@bryansteedman4980قبل 7 أشهر It all comes down to the grinder love that video and of course find a coffee roaster near you fresh beans make big difference 3

@Kyutu07قبل 6 أشهر Superb video, great to see other peoples experiences and walkthroughs to how they self improved their process. I've yet to purchase a puck screen nor id="hidden2" class="buttons"> a better tamp but I may have to take the plunge after seeing your results here. Thanks for the content! ....وسعت 1

@AnlamKقبل 3 أشهر Thanks - I definitely had and continue to have similar experiences.
What I don't understand in your video is that every coffee bean will have id="hidden3" class="buttons"> different settings. So one setting that may work for one type of bean may not work another type. ....وسعت

@ibedexterقبل 4 أشهر This was so similar to my own espresso journey with the Barista Pro! So glad you shared bc all the videos I watched were “experts” making it look way too easy. I felt like an idiot and my shots were awful!

@fsalucardقبل 10 أشهر Absolutely loved seeing another espresso aficionado go through the beginning processes of this journey. Brought back memories. I been working on my own id="hidden5" class="buttons"> espresso/latte journey for about 8 years now.
Just a couple notes from a random Youtube nobody - You can't really diagnose a puck after the shot is pulled. Once the machine pulls out the water it obliterates the puck inside. The bottomless portafilter is the best way to diagnose a shot. A wet/soupy puck is also a non-issue. Those picture-perfect "dry" knock-out pucks are only for show, they don't affect the shot itself.
What are you using for WDT? Looks like a purchased product / needles, which is good, but size of the needles is important. You want between 0.25-0.4mm - if the needles are too big, you can actually do more damage with the WDT than help. That said, your last couple shots after the puck screen (which definitely helps), looked great - so channeling may no longer be an issue.
You seem to be to the point of just dialing in each coffee. Every coffee will be different, and the 1:2 ratio in 25-30 seconds is merely a guideline/starting point - it is not a universally good recipe. Some darker roasts may prefer more 1:1.5 with faster times, and lighter roasts more 1:3 or higher and longer shot times. This where the fun of experimenting comes in :). You'll definitely outgrow that grinder, but you're in a good spot right now. Enjoy your espresso journey! Great video. ....وسعت 6

@tjskinnyقبل 4 أشهر Thank you so much for making this video. We just purchased a Breville Barista Impress Touch, and spent yesterday morning trying to dial in the shot. Still id="hidden6" class="buttons"> working on it, but your video gives me hope and that I am not totally nuts going through this process. ....وسعت

@bobbydigital1747قبل 8 أشهر Great job. I find a 3/7 or 4/8 setting works the best 1

@WillardTurnerقبل 10 أشهر Welcome to espresso. Loved seeing your progression and tenacity. I have to admit, I was perplexed on your insistence on using the commandante grinder in id="hidden7" class="buttons"> the beginning. My best advice to you is please don't get lost in the neverending uogradeitis that is espresso gear. You can get good shots from that machine! Write down exactly what you do every time you pull a shot. The more detail the better. Eventually you will see a pattern. ....وسعت 2

@melanieadcock750قبل 7 أشهر Don't feel bad. I could not dial in my Barista Touch until I changed the internal burr setting on my grinder. I bought some cheap coffee just to get id="hidden8" class="buttons"> the grind size and timing down before I used the good coffee. Dose 18g. Internal burr 4 and external 10. That is where I start with a new coffee. I usually get it dialed in one to two attempts. ....وسعت 1

@forty5r637قبل 5 أشهر I have the express model and burned through a whole bag before I got my first shot dialed in. The demo videos make it look so easy. I stuck with the single shot basket, got it dialed in then moved to double basket.
@

@assai74قبل 7 أشهر Looks like my start with that machine. Stay passionate!
@

@TheTesterOfGameقبل 8 أشهر that video is so nice ! didn't expect to be entertained while I try to dial my Barista pro
@

@OmnielCapoteقبل 10 أشهر Good job, way to stick with the process. If you stay that enthusiastic and you are enjoying the process, you will be putting perfect shots in no time, at least as perfect as the Breville allows. 1

@piplup10203854قبل 6 أشهر When you said you were also an Aeropress person I felt seen lol this is gonna be me in the literal next few weeks. I am gonna buy my machine on Black Friday or cyber Monday and I move in like the day before so I will be starting to figure out that dial in process myself. Oh speaking of that I need to start buying fresh coffee beans because I only have pre-espesso ground coffee for the aero press and I definitely do not have a scale or anything like that ohh lanta what am I in for. I don't even know what I got right now but I will be using a 14g-18g portafilter basket but maybe I should just use the 18g portafilter basket like you're doing otherwise there is like no information out there.
I literally put like one or two scoops into the aero press and then just fill hot water to the top stir it lightly and then press it and then use my moms Keurig for steamed milk so it's gonna be something but I would love to level up my morning coffee but it's gonna be a lot of bitter and sour coffee for a while lol ....وسعت 1

@hookedonwood5830قبل 10 أشهر I had some special coffee once where I has a to fast shot. Took the extract and the grounds and put the grounds in my Hario Switch and the extract in the id="hidden12" class="buttons"> cup below. Added water in the switch to my normal ratio subtracting the already extracted fluid. Temp around 90 degrees - 1 minute infusion before releasing the switch - actually fully drinkable cup bringing the balance back but now as a pour over/immersion ....وسعت
@

@OdinsOdyssey5252قبل 10 أشهر Don't use the single dose, always use the double dose. Go with 16 to 18 gram and your espresso will taste much better. 9

@selfwilliams1639قبل 6 أشهر It's good to know I'm not the only one scratching my head with the BBP.

@Lupacmadethisقبل 5 أشهر I feel ur pain, been through the same when I bought mine

@pakopelozقبل 10 أشهر Fun video to watch! I have some experience pulling shots in a home setup, I don't own a Barista express but a couple of friends have one and I've id="hidden13" class="buttons"> been able to pull good shots, My first suggestions would be actually lowering the dose to 16gr as 18gr or 20gr depending on the density of the coffee you are using could sit really close to the shower screen causing uneven distribution of water to the Puck. My second suggestion would be trying to dial in with proven espresso blends like Intelligentsia black cat or Stumptown hair bender, some local roaster coffee beans as Noble Coyote could be very light and acidic to be pull as Espresso without the right equipment.
Good luck in your espresso journey!! ....وسعت 2

@MaccaWelland36قبل 9 أشهر I’m so happy I’ve found you!! Thank you for putting this video together!
I’ve been struggling with inconsistent and vile tasting shots out on id="hidden14" class="buttons">f my barista pro for two months now. I’m adjusting grind size up and down and still haven’t got results I’m happy with! I’ve avoided buying anything off Amazon yet and relying solely on the standard kit.
What is your advice after going through similar struggles? That I should get some better gear?
I’m currently running internal grind size 4, external 7, dose 19g, running my double shots manually with a 7 sec pre infusion. Coffee Kev settings…
Are you just running the standard single / double shot button settings?! ....وسعت

@champs1076قبل 9 أشهر How's ur progress in the espresso journey? Can u tell the Puck Screen is the mvp? Can't wait for the next dialing episode. Cheers ☕
@

@Lando_Cقبل 5 أشهر Awesome video. Just got the Barista Pro myself and every shot is nasty imo even though the timing seems right.
By chance could you provide links to the material you purchased for yours?
@

@igorverdesقبل 9 أشهر I used 2 two pound lavazza bags and almost gave up dialing in espresso on super automatic jura machine, until I tried local fresh roasters. Much better results. No more Amazon coffee orders.

@lydiapetree2177قبل 10 أشهر My love, my sweet best friend, I love this video so much, and I also have no clue what you're talking about in 80% of it. Would you consider making id="hidden17" class="buttons"> a video about the terminology that is necessary to understand when you enter the world of coffee? Or send me resources on what things mean? Like dialing in, pre-infusion (which I know you touched on a little in your video with Nat), the grind settings and what's ideal, blah blah. Coffee for dummies basically. Again, even texting me resources would be great. I just want to be able to follow along better than I'm able to right now lmao ....وسعت 1

@moraesg00قبل 10 أشهر As silly as it may sound, you’d be better off investing on a separate espresso focused grinder. The built in breville grinder unfortunately isn’t as precise and doesn’t really have fine adjustments. Something like the Eureka manuale is good and reasonably priced and will improve your shots a lot! :)
Another suggestion would be decreasing your coffee dose, make your grinding settings finer, increase the pre infusion and increase the ratio. Something around 1:3 often controls the bitterness and acidity of the espresso!
Nice video, keep em coming :) ....وسعت 2

@whatsnextreisenقبل 6 أشهر Everybody says something different on when to start the time :) my logic is that automatic and very expensive coffee scales start the time with the first id="hidden19" class="buttons"> drop of coffee in the cup, so I do that to. But that’s probably 8-10 seconds later then you do…. So that’s confusing ....وسعت
@

@midnight_teddyقبل 10 أشهر I'd recommend practicing on some kind of Italian espresso blend, such as Lavazza's Super Crema. It's very forgiving, not very expensive, and id="hidden20" class="buttons"> you'll likely get something fairly drinkable even if it's not perfectly dialed in. Also, lowering the dose to about 16ish grams (as another commenter suggested) will reduce the intensity of the flavors, which may be preferable. ....وسعت 5

@gymee425قبل 7 أشهر i'm struggling with the same problems hopefully i will some day enjoy my 600 dollar purchase! ufff 1
@

@florindanila7034قبل 8 أشهر It's so frustrating because all this process its not fun all the time! If you go to an Italian coffee bar you don't se the barista wdt the puck id="hidden21" class="buttons"> or put a shower disc or measure the beans or other things that coffee nerds came up with! They just make incredible espresso without all this fuss! And i think the key is the freshness of the coffee, the grinder and those 10.000 euros coffee machines.
Great video anyway ....وسعت
@

@nyang1010قبل 10 أشهر I can’t also dial in correctly. Just like you, I’m using manual grinder comandante. Hurts my arm like crazy. I’m now buying tools.. and an electric grinder on its way. For now, settling for pour over. Don’t want to waste my good specialty coffees. ....وسعت

@Ian-ev5tgقبل 8 أشهر Timer starts as soon as you hear the pump kick in. Don’t include pre infusion 1

@Thetacheقبل 7 أشهر Nobody starts out an expert and the learning part is a fun process when you get to the good shots and look back with the 20/20 hindsight and laugh at what a naive noob you were trying to wing it with no research

@royjenkins9681قبل 10 أشهر l was thinking about buying a coffee machine but having watched your video l realise that it's not at all easy to make it work correctly.
Maybe I'll stick with my ancient moka pot after all. 1
