Espresso Trials

 So today I set my grind coarser to 4.5.

Tamped lighter than normal.

Puck was wet but not soupy.

Made a cortado. It is pretty good.

Coffee/Espresso: Stone Creek Voyager 18g

Espresso Trials #2

Breville Bambino Espresso machine

Equator Coffees Jaguar Espresso Dark Roast (whole bean) ~17 grams

Well the plan was to do a medium roast today. My home clearly has none. I guess it's time for a coffee run. Today's espresso bunch better than yesterday's. It's not bitter at all. I didn't pay much attention to extraction time. It's not my favorite coffee. Oh clean puck today. 

Espresso Trials #1

 So I have a record. 

Breville Bambino espresso machine

Cafe Bustelo Dark Roast (pre-ground) ~18g

My first try went ok. The espresso was drinkable, slightly bitter. Puck was too wet. 

Tomorrow I will try less coffee. 

I have had worse espresso. I'm not discouraged.

Is it time to give up on this a start all over again

I don't know why I don't just delete this blog but I still have fond memories here.  Instead I will start a new one. 

I might change my mind who knows.

New Years Resolution

I have made a resolution that is quite familiar to me.

Don't sabotage yourself?

I normally make smaller new years goals but I didn't bother this year.

I hope to do more things that makes me happy this year.

I will not lie to myself and say I will blog because I wont but I am going to attempt to use this location as a place to keep track on the books that have read and maybe a little bit of a review.

I give up

I will stop lying to myself.  I will not blog.  Seriously no one doesn't it anymore.

Its still useful to find things I wrote about a long time ago.
