We only had 1.5 oz to work with and pulled three doubles at 200.5, 9 bar, 30/25/22 seconds on the LM. It was not tasty. The head hit sort of like a medicinal lemon lozenge and the finish wasn't crisp... sort of an unwanted astringency. <br /> <br /> I tried sipping mine until it cooled to see if I'd find anything else. All I found was cooler espresso. The barista I was working with wouldn't even finish hers.<br /> <br /> If you took any notes on temp/pressure/time/other for your shots, please share.<br /> <br /> Too bad the shots were icky since the press pots were out of this world. Nice prose.
