Hey Mark, Something like that. I use 9 bar with the blind filter, which gives me around 8.5 bar for brewing. You can play around with it and see what suits you. I have found the slightly lower pressure makes it easier to avoid channeling, along with good dose/tamp technique.
As an aside, when you are INcreasing brew pressure, you can just turn the screw and watch the gauge. When DEcreasing brew pressure, you'll need to back the screw off a bit, dump pressure, then re-pressurize the system. If you just back off and watch the dial, you'll tend to miss the mark. tx, bmc On Feb 16, 2010, at 6:29 AM, Troll wrote: > Thanks for the help. > > I have a vibe pump for clarification. > > When I have the time I'll open her up and make the adjustments to the > steam and brew pressure.
