I have tried several beans but none are the answer. Just ordered another batch of beans to try and intend to fiddle with pre infusion and water dumping to drop temp a bit. We’ll see what happens.

BG, The usual rule of thumb is that the shots will be bitter if the temperature is too high. Maybe try lowering it a few degrees. On my B II I also find that if I have not backflushed recently the shots get bitter. I suspect that you have already tried backflushing. Finally, I noted that a recent batch of beans were very bitter. I dumped them. What beans do you use? Are they from anatisinal roaster?

How many grams/shot are you using generally?

My first thoughts are a through cleaning or a temperature change as long as your grind seems right.

For some reason, my shots have become bitter and unenjoyable compared to when the unit was more new. The water temperature supplied seems to be about 198-202 degrees and pressure supplied to the portafilter measures at 13 bar. I have tried several quality coffees, but none seem to taste like a quality shot. I wonder if anyone has any ideas.

I upgraded to a Kafatek and it made a world of difference. I have a BII and a GS3 with the manometer and you'd be hard pressed to decide which is the better cup.

After all these years with the b2 I’m still more excited to upgrade my grinder. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Brewtus" group.
