coffeealex Cuprajake Gosh! Tell you what after watching those I now put myself in the master barista class of coffee preparation. There’s me thinking I was average….. or maybe they are in the master barista category and I am Sh.. Hmm??
coffeealex Cuprajake Is that the ‘knock tap technique’ What disturbs me most is both have clearly from their accents Italian heritage. Coming from an Italian background myself it makes me worry!!
MediumRoastSteam coffeealex Is that the ‘knock tap technique Knock-tap-grind-tamp (repeat)! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 That’s a hell of an overfilled basket! Impressive!
dutchy101 coffeealex You do with a Minima haha. Not only am I completely amazed he was using that there (when the was another metal tamper on the worktop at the same time), but he looked like he did a bloody good job with the shots.
coffeealex The vimeo video is a ritual! What does he spray the beans with? Looks just like my hand disinfectant. Maybe it’s a special spray for coffee beans just in case they have Covid.
dfk41 DavecUK The nice thing about having a bad memory is you can see things you think you have not seen before (but know you have) and enjoy them anew
MackOT coffeealex I just saw the video and realize that the barista is Antonio Nurri. He is founder Nurri company. The one that just release Nurri Leva SA. I wonder that his machine requires to tamp like the way he does it. 🤣

At the beginning he says his name, “Salvatore” (from Salvatore Espresso Machines). edit: CoyoteOldMan pointed me to the right post by coffeealex It’s indeed Nurri.
CoyoteOldMan MediumRoastSteam I think it was this video, using a similar old school tamping technique:
