Good day sir!
I would like to let you know that before coming to your video I had been sitting in front of my machine for well over an hour, pull after pull achieving the same result (not even registering pressure and just flushing through the Porta filter)...
After burning through an entire bag of coffee, countless reddit posts, and a ton of other youtube videos, I came across this!
And YOU sir saved my machine, you saved my machine from being destroyed, pulverized, beaten into pieces, unidentifiable as an espresso machine, obliterating it into sub particles like The Avengers by Thanos...
But as I sit here, buzzing off my numerous tastes of sour espresso shots, and sipping on my desired iced latte I had been trying to achieve, I would like to thank you for saving my machine and bringing harmony into our previously tumultuous relationship.
Balance has been restored in my home, my wife, kids, and machine owe it all to you..
Not all heros wear capes sir 👏
I like your comments. Glad I could save your machine from destruction 😃👍. Made my day.
🤣🤣🤣😂😂 I feel u bud!
Having the same problem! Bought my wife this Machine for Christmas and I experienced the same problem, going to try this tomorrow 😅
@@avilio42 Hope it worked out for you man
Best comment I have seen for ages. My wife and I had the exact same relationship with our previously hideous and nightmare evoking machine
Just wanted to give a quick THANK YOU!!! I was going insane trying to figure out why the pressure was so low. Your tips completely helped me. Thank you so much for creating this video.
Same here! Just got my machine yesterday! It helped tremendously!!!!
Same here. Thank you for your video :)
Thank you!! Big help
I’m having issues with it I’m going give up lol
Love how straightforward this video is. I was having major issues with the pressure not reaching the grey zone until I came across your video - thank you!
Something of note - I was having similar issues of low pressure on my machine. Adjusting the burr definitely helps to ’fine’ out your grind, but the majority of the time, this is not the issue. The issue comes from the seal when locking your portafilter. Don’t just turn to where it says lock on your machine, but extend it to where you feel the ‘click’ or no more turn.
Thanks Josh. Thats one possible cause if your GroupHead seal is worn out or torn. I covered this point as well in Part 2 or Part 3 of Low Pressure video in my channel.
Hmmm. I’m a newbie. Thank you!
If the seal is torn, you will notice it. Pressure and water will escape the torn seal..
Yup they should really put a sticker saying turn untill you can't no more or something.
Thanks! What an informative video!
The first shots you pulled were exactly how mine looked the entire day I was practicing. This is the first video I've seen this tip, thank you!!!
Appreciate your feedback. Hope it worked for you
Thank you so very much!!! This was a very frustrating problem that developed all of us sudden after my grinder stopped and was thoroughly cleaned out! The pressure remain very low and your suggestions alleviated the issue! So grateful for your help!
Thank you so much for doing this video! I was beyond frustration already. I bought my machine about a year ago and couldn't get this right so I just thought I bought a bad product. I tried exactly what you show here and FINALLY have a beautiful, creamy tasting espresso. Thank you so much!
This is the first comment I've ever made on UA-cam, and for good reason. This is a HUGE improvement over every result I was getting. I had no idea the burr setting could be changed. I, like you, was all the way down on 1 and still getting no pressure.
Really, really appreciate you taking the time to make this. Cheers.
Thank you very much sir, I bought this machine on Saturday and this burr adjustment was absolutely the trick. I set the inside burr setting on 2 and the outer dial on 4, and for the first time ever got the pressure dial pointing straight up using the single wall filter. Finally doing it right! Properly flowing espresso is a beautiful sight to see!
So mine went from no pressure to now too high of a pressure 🙄 I do not want to waste another bag of coffee on figuring this out!
To low pressure on single wall and works good on double wall. What can I do? I changed the inside grid setting to 3 and outside grid size to one nothing still not pressure.
When I put the double wall filter in it worked.
Thank you bro, I’ve been 4 days with horrible espresso and no pressure......I was going to return it. and finally I find you 🙏🏿💐
Thank you so much! Your video is very clear, understanding, and very helpful! I appreciate you posting this video.
I can't thank you enough for making this video! I was so disheartened that I spent so much on this machine only for it to not really work... But it works just fine, all I needed to do was follow your instructions! I'm still having trouble getting it to taste like it does when I buy it from the coffee shop, but I'm far closer now thanks to you!
This machine turning out to be an expresso journey. I hope you got the flavor you were searching for...My journey is just beginning...going to get beans to see if I can get my machine working properly... :)
THANK YOU! I have been battling my machine for months now trying to figure out what was wrong. I was ready to throw in the towel and everything.
Thank you so much, my pressure barely lifted and I was beginning to think it was faulty! I adjusted the grinder and I'm at up in pressure for about 24 seconds and the coffee is much better 😀
Glad to hear that and thanks for the feedback
Dude thanks so much. You have no idea how helpful this is. I had no idea you could change the internal burr settings. It was driving me nuts.
I've watched at least a dozen other videos and nobody covered the low pressure problem like you did. Thank you for making this and saving my sanity.
🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
Thank you, thank you, thank you! This tutorial fixed the issue! Set my internal to 3, kept my grinder at 5 and the pressure is perfect. Even the sound is better! Brilliant. Again, thank you so much!
Glad to hear that Justin and appreciate your feedback
Thank you so much! I thought I’d gotten a defective machine. Your video was clear and comprehensive. Thank you again for taking the time to do this.
You are welcome
This fixed my problem. Most guides I have seen gloss over exact burr/grind setting details.
This is the only video I have seen which REPRODUCES the problem and FIXES it in the same video. Thanks!
Thank you and glad you fixed it
You sir have prevented a murder and/or some serious criminal damage thanks to your amazing video.
I used up two bags of Harrods coffee beans trying to get the pressure up on various grind settings and couldn’t. I could only produce sour and bitter shots with no crema.
Since adjusting the internal burr to 3 and exterior grinder to 4 I now have perfect pressure with sublime crema topped espressos.
I thank you a thousand times for taking the time to publish this video :D
So glad to hear that Jack and appreciate your feedback. It helps me to produce more tips 👍
Love your comment, seems like everyone on the list was about to be sentenced to a lifetime of imprisonment!!!
@@margotedwards4326 I’m a very patient person and this machine put me to the test. I was pissed because I’d wasted all my nice coffee from London and because the machine had cost a lot of money. The kitchen was a dangerous place to be at the time, lol. But here I am a year later and I LOVE my morning coffee routine. Worth every penny and the initial near-bloodbath :)
Thank you for making this video!! I finally purchased this machine after wanting it for over five years. So you can imagine my disappointment when I finally got to use it and realized the pressure was too low. I spent two days troubleshooting it via its official manual, but it was your video and tips that finally fixed the issue. I was able to enjoy my first properly extracted shot of espresso this morning. Cheers ☕
Thank you Jen for your feedback. Another important tip is to only use freshly Roasted beans from a local Roaster and buy small quantities enough for 2 or 3 weeks.
My man!! I just unboxed this thing today and after many bad samples and I'm sure a very wired sleepless night, I found your video, made my adjustments, grind 4 burr 3 and BOOM!! Thank you!!!
Glad to hear that! See part 2 and part 3 of Low Pressure video. Always used Freshly Roasted beans. Have fun with the machine.
I watched your video last night and used what I learned this morning to make my first latte using my new Barista Express that arrived yesterday. My first expresso out of the gate and using the single-walled basket was absolutely perfect! Pressure zone was right in the sweet spot! I used the same beans and milk that I have been using for years with an older Breville Duo machine and the results tasted completely different like it was made at the best of coffee shops! Thank you for the great video!
Glad to hear that 🙂👍
Excellent presentation...very analytical and straight forward. I timed your last shot pull and it was about 27 seconds, which seems to coincide with what I've heard others say is the appropriate duration...which obviously coincides with proper pressure.
Amazing! You addressed exactly what was wrong with my low pressure issue and this made a huge difference in the results!! Many Thanks, I am greatly enjoying the Barista now :-)
I'm so glad to read that this helped you.
Thanks for this video, a few days ago I started getting low pressure on my Barista and the flow rate too fast and amount extracted increased as well. I adjusted the internal burr size to 3 and that was too fine, final setting was burr size 5 and grind setting 6 which for the beans I'm using which are fresh gave me a pull of 52ml at 29 secs using 17 g. This produced a great shot, which I unfortunately cannot drink unless I want to be buzzed out of my freakin' mind! I did not know this about the burr size so thank you.
Thanks for the feedback
Aju you are a Legend!! Thanks to you I have gone from a very frustrated Breville Barista Express owner to my wife’s favourite Barista. Your video and insight has given me the information and guidance needed to dial in an amazing Expresso. I am now a very happy Breville owner and Love this machine. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and experience and delivering such amazing content. Keep up the great work!!
Thank you Uwin and glad to hear that this helped. Really appreciate your feedback on this.
Thanks for this video! I was able to get perfect pressure in the high range with my burr set on 3 and my outside grinder set on 5 and the single filter. You helped me learn how to turn the inside grinder, other videos do not show you that! Thanks again!
Man! Never knew you could adjust the Burr size. Thank you for taking the time to share this with us! :)
Thanks for the feedback.
@@AjusCafe This is not in the manual I have! Thank you!!
@@SteveFloresATL see page 20 of the manual. If not then you got version 1 manual.
You are an angel sent down from the coffee gods! I was getting little to no pressure and flushing through cup after cup of sour watery mud until I took your advice, ended up at BURR: 3 GRIND: 5 and just pulled a wonderful cup of espresso.
The machine will now have a home here instead of the city dump, you made a world of difference today! Thank you sir!
Use freshly Roasted beans always to avoid pressure and taste issue. 🙂👍
Thank you so much for this video! I didn't know about the internal burr setting. I was getting frustrated with not being able to get higher pressure (even with a grind size of 1), this worked for me!
Thank you very much! My son and daughter in law were so frustrated with their machine, they were just about to send it away to get fixed, when I followed your advice and Boom! Fixed straight away. 👌
So glad to hear that and appreciate your feedback
Thanks so much for this video. We were having this exact problem and I had researched about adjusting the burr setting but was still a little nervous about trying it. Seeing you recreate the exact problem we were having and show how you problem solved each step of the way really helped me understand the machine better and left little doubt that this would fix our problem. Our coffees are back to being perfect and delicious :)
So glad to hear that this helped 🙂👍
NIce, clear and concise video Aju, great job. Just a couple of tips if I may, when adjusting the grind you should really run the grinder when making the adjustment, each time you adjust then run some coffee off and discard, secondly, you should weigh the dose as well, 9g single, 14-15g double . Before placing the portafilter in to the group, run some water from the group, this takes off any steam build up and stops the water burning the coffee. As a professional coffee machine engineer with over 20 years of experience these are just a couple of tips to add to what is already a great hints and tips video. At the end of the day, taste is subjective. Cheers all, enjoy your espresso !
Thanks for your feedback and thanks for the tip. Appreciate that.
Oh my goodness!! Thank you so much! I have been struggling with not getting enough pressure for a long, long time. Thank you 🌟
Appreciate your feedback. See Part 3 of this video which covers all issues.
I have looked everywhere for help on this issue and so glad I found your video. Thank you !!!
YES, this is the video I needed. I had proper pressure, but it was at grind setting one, and I just don't like it maxed out.
Its normal for a store bought coffee beans. Unless you use freshly Roasted. See Part 2 of this same video in my channel.
Bro! You’re a life saver! I was to the point of depression. Could t figure out the damn reason why my needle wasn’t going up.
Your video is prime time! Thanks again.
You are welcome
Wow. What a life saver. I have just purchased my machine and have used over 3 bags trying to get it right and my grind level was on the finest. I tweeted the burr twice and hey presto!
Why this isn't in the manual I don't know. I'm using Costa coffee beans so might try some different ones as the settings seem really low but getting a good pull now! Thanks again.
Much appreciated!!! Not only did I learn how to set the machine, but I also learned about a new tamping product. Got out my vacuum cleaner and once I cleaned out the seat for the burr it worked like a charm. Sometimes it is the small things that make a huge difference. Cannot thank you enough! This got you a follow.
"this tastes way better, I didn't even taste the other ones, but this one is better" 😂
😂😂😂. From experience... good catch 👍
May I ask how long before you had these issues? I am looking for a reliable machine that won't break the bank
@@farleftsilencelikenazis1021 you can get these used for about 350-400 on mercari or other market places .
@@farleftsilencelikenazis1021 This is not an issue with the machine. This can happen to store bought beans and beans that are not fresh. My machine is still perfect. I set my Grind setting at 7 and burr at default 6 for Lavazza espresso or fresh beans. This demo was done with few weeks old beans.
This video is way better.., I didn’t watch the others but this one looks much better!! 🥂🥂
What a saying😆
So happy to have found this video!!! Thank you so much for showing that there is an adjustment for the burr!!! I have a brand new Barista Express BES870XL and was having trouble with low pressure right out of the box. Once I adjusted the burr setting, I finally got my pressure gauge to hit 12 o clock got the first time!!! Thank you!
So glad to hear that and thanks for the feedback
Seriously! This is a must watch video! I struggled w low pressure for over a month. I even had a breville agent help me troubleshoot but he ended up telling me to always use the pressurized basket w my fresh beans! Thank you, Aju! The best solution ever. 💕💕💕💕
I'm glad you found the solution. Freshly Roasted with roasted date not less than a week old and use it in 4 week time. This will give you the best flavor and solve most of your problems.
Very clear for every one on changing the burrs setting, it has its place but...tamp pressure is not that important, coffee freshness is the key, I've found that its not worth the trouble changing the internal burr. Change your coffee beans! you need fresh beans, buy with a roasting date on bag. Ideally 2 weeks from purchased. I found this to solve all my problems, I even roast my own beans now and pressure and crema are always amazing. My dial in setting is now around 8-7 for fresh medium roast, and 5 for fresh dark, medium my favorite as I'm not a fan of oily beans. Give it a go. I live in the UK, and I've found some coffee on amazon with a roasting date on by "coffee masters" excellent for UK shop bought. Single origin bean roasting at home is great fun and coffee is always superb. All the best.
Burr size?
Thank you so much! I finally got it to go into espresso mode with your help! All I had to do was change the grind setting. My espresso tasted so much better! Thank you again! 🙌🏼
So glad to hear that. Thanks for the feedback
Bless you! We have ground up over a pound of espresso beans unsuccessfully until we watched your video. We love our existing beans (used with our previous machine) but we could not get a decent cup from this one until now! Thank you thank you thank you!!
YOU ARE MAGIC!!! My husband and I were losing our minds, thinking this machine was a hunk of junk. We adjusted the burr to 2, the grind to 4, upped the grind amount and just had a perfect cup of espresso. CAN'T THANK YOU ENOUGH!
Thank you so much for your help. Greatly appreciated it
Yes, this was exactly the fix I needed to get the right pressure/in the zone. Thank you.
Great.. glad to hear that David!
Very useful information, than you for making this video! A couple things I would say are, I think you should use a scale to measure your dose. It's hard to just eyeball to within a gram accuracy, and a difference of 16g vs 17g can be significant. The other thing is that your tamp seemed a bit light. I don't know how you calibrate that tool you are using, but just watching you it seemed that the tamp pressure was low, and that can also make a big difference.
i WEIGH out 18 grams. this might be more than he is using as mine piles higher..
Awesome fix thank you! Have had the breville for 2 years now and it started just a few weeks ago not even coming close to the right pressure. Called breville and they just told me I had to use the dual wall filter instead. Tried your fix and it worked!! Thanks! 👌💪
Awesome...! so glad to hear that. Dual wall won't bring out all the flavors of espresso like single wall. Using freshly roasted beans can solve most of the low pressure issue. Enjoy your espresso!
Thank you so much...it was such a quick and easy fix. No other video explains this! I got the machine for Christmas and was so disappointed when it was t working properly, I was telling my wife she may have to return it, but I found this video and bam bam bam instant results and great espresso shots!
So happy to hear that... see part 2 video too. Thanks for the feedback
aju! you’re insane bro! this fixed my gf’s machine no prob! pressures back to norm. time for a quadi. yum
Thank you Ethan for the feedback. So glad to hear that.. 👍
Really informative, Thank You. I just watched another video by Breville that focused on extraction quality and how bean freshness and quality is the most common cause of issues. Have you tried using different beans to remedy the problem? Paying note of the roast date being
Thank you David. You said a very important point. I have covered this and other things to note in Part 2 and Part 3 Final of low pressure video. Link in the description above
Great video! Changed the game for me, I have been stuck with my low pressure for a few days now and this has sorted it out straight away! Thanks
That's awesome 🙂👍
Thank you so much for making this video ! ! Totally helped me figured out why the pressure was low.... Have tried to adjust the grind to 1 but not improving at all. Thank you so much for sharing this trick, the espresso is now so much better !
Glad to hear that 👍
Thank you so much for teaching us this!! The burr size fixed my issue and I'm thankfully greatful for your video 🙂 I actually had to much pressure so I adjusted the grind size (depending on bean) up a little more. Thanks again
Welcome and appreciate your feedback
The factors that influence the quality of the espresso coffee are:
1. The freshness of the beans
2. The temperature of the flow
3. Grain size
4. Ratio coffee:water i mean input weight of the coffee: weight of the shot output
5.distribution of the coffee grains in the basket
6. Channeling in the basket
Someone lucid here. Thanks
How do you check if your barista express has the right temperature? or does this come down to waiting 20 mins for your machine to heat up before making one?
Man, this was a life saver. I was going mental when I switched up a bag of beans but couldn't dial it in from the outside radial grind size wheel. Got my buttery smooth shots back. Cheers from PDX! 🖤
Thanks for the feedback and glad to hear u pulled a good shot.
I've been looking at various videos for the Breville Barista Express since I was having trouble with low pressure. After watching this video, I am finally able to make it work after having the machine for almost a month. SUCH a great video and amazing advice!! really appreciate it
So glad to hear this. Thank you
You should check out Hoons Coffee channel
he is also everything Barista Express
Spent hours at the machine trying to fix my low pressure problem and watched multiple videos. Yours was the only one to fix it. Good in-depth video pal 👍🏻 👌
Absolutely excellent instruction! I now know how to address the problem I have been having with the pressure. Thank you so much for doing this video.
I’ve been so frustrated with my new machine and now I am so relieved thank you very much it’s fantastic to see a solution
So glad..
Thank you for this video!! My friend gave me his old machine before his move. After a LOT of cleaning. He never cleaned or descaled it. We got it to working condition. Then it hit low pressure a couple of days ago. Your video saved the day!! And made our espresso shots taste even better! Thank you so much!!
Thanks for the feedback and glad it worked
I had the same issue with my coffee machine. With your guide I managed to make my coffee much better! Thank you Sir!☕️
So glad to hear that.
Thank you so much! It took me a few days to be able to get the internal burr grinder out but as soon as I fixed that setting, my machine started to reach espresso range. You've made my mornings better!
Glad to hear that. Also remember to always use freshly Roasted beans from a local roaster.
Fantastic! Explains why I wasn't getting pressure. Really useful. Thank you!]
SUPER helpful video! I setup my new Breville Barista Express today, and was having the same issue. With the tweaks you talked about, I adjusted my burr and it worked like a charm!
Please make sure you use freshly Roasted beans ONLY for espresso. Many ignore that. Find a local store and get freshly Roasted and see the difference in pressure and taste
I tinkered with my burr setting as well as grinder setting and holy moley I finally got the pressure up to where it needed to be and got the best espresso yet, right in the middle... Thank you for making this video I was about this close to contacting customer support because nowhere in their guidebook does it say anything about a burr setting...
Thank you
Glad to hear that this video helped. Page 20 of the manual talks about burr adjustment in general. But not clear though.
Thank you! Thank you! I was having trouble getting to pressure anywhere with the Breville following your step-by-step instructions was so easy AND so successful.
Glad to hear that
Omg man you ROCK! We've been living with low pressure for a year and assuming the beans or basket age was the problem.... This nailed it!
So Glad to hear that
Thank you! None of the other videos I watched talked about the burr size and how to adjust it. Can’t wait to try this tip!
It worked and it’s perfect! Thank you!!
Thanks Aju, this was exactly my problem. I was using up a pre ground packet I had for a mocha pot and assumed it would be ok. I wish the manufacturers would put a recommended grind setting on the beans (I guess it’s different for different makes of machine though…)it can take so long, and so much coffee to get it right. By the time you’ve played with all permutations of the 2 variables half a packet has gone!
Hey man, just wanted to give you a quick shout-out for being a total legend! I recently got my hands on the Breville Dual Boiler, and I was seriously struggling to get the pressure right. I had a feeling it might be the pre-ground coffee I was using, and you totally confirmed that for me. Thanks a lot g - it's folks like you who make the coffee game so much fun!
I'm so glad to hear this. Thank you
This is definitely very helpful. Thank you for this clearly explained walkthrough. Oddly I had to dial it down to Burr Size 1, Grind Size 4 to make it work. Also when I got into that range, I heard the stuck sound once in few time while grinding, as if a rock or something hard got stuck. I have thoroughly cleaned the burr, nothing found and nothing damaged, but it still happens. Anyone here experienced similar issue?
Thanks for the feedback. It could be a small stone in your coffee beans that made noisy grinding. I've read some people who experienced the same. Try to check those 18g before you put.
Burr size one is too low unless your burr grinder has been worn down over a long period of time.
I can't thank you enough for this video. From low quality coffee to perfect expresso.
Thank you soooo much. I was about ready to return mine because i thought it was having major issues with the grinder. Copied your exact burr and grind settings and instantly perfect pressure.
Glad to hear that
you are a beast! you did it! LOL I was using this machine at an office and thought the grind size was the only setting. I bought one and noticed it had a crappy flow no pressure and the grind size didnt do anything...Found your great video. Now I can fine tune this thing and get my mojo with work from home! Yeah! so excited to go get some nice beans. Take my home expresso game to the next level with my Barista pro!!!! Thank you!
Glad you fixed it 🙂👍
Thank you! I even called Breville support and this was NEVER mentioned. This video has been a life saver
So glad to hear that 👍
Thank you! I came across the same issue recently, and this video was so helpful! Saved me a trip to the repair shop😊
Glad to hear that. Get freshly Roasted beans to fix these issues
Very very helpful!!! Thanks. I never would’ve thought this was the reason for pressure issues.
Thank you for the feedback
Thank you so much for this video.... I was ready to give up on this machine... thanks again!
Aja, you are my new best friend. Thank you so much for sharing, you solved my problem and I am sitting enjoying a great Americano thanks to you.
We just received this machine that had this exact problem. Your video was very helpful! Thank you for this very easy to follow and described explanation.👍👍👍
Thank you so much
I ordered one machine and this problem kept occurring. I youtubed fixes and messed with it for two days. I then ordered another machine and shocking... same problem occurred. You saved my day, it was the actual grinder that needed to be adjusted on the inside. Nicely done sir.
Thank you!!!!!!! I read about doing this but was hesitant to try on my own. Your video was super helpful and my pressure is now perfect!
Glad to hear that 👍. Always stick on to freshly Roasted beans which was roasted within 2 weeks, and consume in 4 weeks. This will reduce the low pressure issue too.
Thank you so much!!!! My coffee machine was driving me crazy. I watched this video and couldn’t wait until tomorrow morning to try it out so here I am at 12am doing this and what do you know my coffee went into the range!! Yayyyy thank you
Hurray!!! It should have touched 1 'o clock range !!! Thanks for the feedback and glad this solution worked!
Thanks so much for your very clear video/lesson. I still can't understand why my 8 month old machine started losing pressure (or grinding more coarsely). I've been using fresh beans and pretty much the same brand as I've been using throughout. The beans weren't the issue. I'm excited that I can start drinking good espresso again!
I still believe it could be the beans. For example the same brand, different pack will have to be dialed in different. 8 months old machine is still new. That's too early to have wear and tear, unless you grind some stones, plastic or some other object by mistake. I'm glad you fixed it.
@@AjusCafe Perhaps I did not snap the burr assembly back together properly the last time that I cleaned it and it slowly worked its way loose. I use fresh Intelligentsia espresso beans normally and I never had any issues. I also tried two other types of fresh beans I had on hand (which I use for V60 pour overs) with the same low pressure results. Unfortunately I did NOT try the double wall pressure test before I adjusted the inner burr setting. And I love the outdoor shots around your home. Very beautiful (I live in LA where things change little from season to season). Thanks again.
@@renoboy77 That makes sense. I'm glad you found the issue. Double wall would show pressure and it's not good for testing or for good extraction. The tests you did using single wall is right. Thank you, yes the season changes quickly here. LA is beautiful. I visited LA in 2005, a while ago. Great city!
Saved me from getting real cranky at the machine - thanks mate, problem fixed! Legend.
thank you so much 🙌🏼 i’ve had this problem for days and tried everything and this fixed it straight away. Legend!
So glad to hear that
Thanks a lot! You’re a genious! I’ve got that problem and made the store give me a new one for the one that i thought was broke, and the new one had the same problem recently 😕, but thanks to you, the problem is solved.
I had exactly the same problem. I followed your instructions and it works beautifully. Thank you!
Your video's are amazing! I bought a broken machine for peanuts (no water flow) and fixed it up myself. Only to find I couldn't get the pressure up on my pulls. Changed the burr setting and Im off! Ready to get fancy now! Thank you!
So glad to hear that 🙂👍
That saved me! That's three years I've been pulling lousy shots. Nothing about the burr in the manual. Thanks so much!
First video I've watched in a year that actually helped. Thank you.
So glad to hear this 🙌
100% the most helpful clip I’ve found. Thank you so much!
Thank you so much
Like so many others this helped me fix my issue. Had to adjust the inner burr from 6 to 3, now working better than before! Thanks Aju! :)
Glad to hear that 🙂
Thank you!! We finally got it to work properly. Thank you for taking the time to make this clip.
Thank you!! Have had the machine 3 days. Started out fine but pressure diminished to zero over the three days. Watched your video and am getting good pressure now.
So glad to hear that. Always give importance to buy freshly Roasted beans from local store which has less than 2 weeks "Roasted date ". This helps a lot
