I noticed something very odd and I don’t understand why this is happening, only wanted to ask if someone shared something similar.
Well when I use ocd after distributing my puck if I use it on anything else than minimal screw, if I unscrew it even a little bit my espresso ALWAYS will come harsh and bitter, this is something I experience for a long time and haven’t noticed “ yesterday “ and with many different beans.
Few weeks ago I had medium roasted beans from rave and was surprised with my new niche duo how much more taste and clarity/sweetness I’m getting. Between that I slightly adjusted ocd for different roast now rave sent me another that medium roast, I adjust temperature and grind setting and brew 1:2 ratio and it’s bloody harsh, one shot after another. Then I realised my ocd been unscrew a little bit, back to minimum and I’m getting sweetness again with changing anything else .
I completely don’t understand why this could be happening but that’s something I had for quite some time.
