    Subscribed for the hint on flavour notes. THANK YOU!

I thought maybe I could bring out those flavour notes if I got better at dialing in my espresso! Now I don't feel so bad that my espresso tastes like coffee. Thank you so much!

    Totally agree, channelling is the number one thing to avoid when brewing coffee. My espresso game went up a level once I understood this. Yet, in a lot of videos, they obsess over temperature and pressure. Even with something like grind size, the main aim should be to get an even extraction rather than controlling the shot to the nearest second.

    Problems with dialing in because you don‘t know what espresso‘s supposed to taste like sounds weird but it‘s the realest thing ever. There‘s so much info on ratios, brew time etc. that it‘s easy to forget to listen to your taste (and train it by drinking good coffee!)

    SO MUCH #3. I literally discovered this by accident recently because I was tired of needing to find somewhere to brush off the top grinds into the bin. I then polish the puck with an OCD (JK, it's an imitation one that cost $80 less ) and finish with a tamp. Without the gentle bumping step, my pucks tend to do well but still end up overextracting towards the end of a pull unless I cut it short. Science is weird.

    Great tips. Some coffees do taste like the flavour notes but you may need a certain style of grinder / burr to really bring it out otherwise it's just more blended in there or sometimes obscured by bitterness if there's too many fines or just brewed poorly. I've found you can taste more as the coffee cools so best to wait a bit if you really want to notice the flavours. Also a lot of time you don't notice some flavours until you compare and contrast with another coffee! I'd also recommend making sure your nose is cleared and you're not stuffy! Having some carbonated or even regular water to cleanse your palate between sips of espresso also helps. Oh and doing the slurpy sips to aerate over your tongue!
