Amazing video, just a tip: don’t knock the portafilter with the tamper, you may create channelling.

Another tip: You want to pull the shot as soon as you lock the portafilter into the machine.

A man who works for, appreciates, and enjoys the nicer things in life…

I will recommend to warm up the machine with the portafilter lock it in, the portafilter need to be nice and warm before pulling a shot! It may cause some problems in extraction! I say that because I never saw the portafilter lock it in, but all in all the whole video was AWESOME!

Nice video, great music, fun and informative thank you

When you put the porta filter in group you have to start brew !

Nice filming...more coffee.

Your content is always nice.

Great video. I just got my Linea mini and been trying to dial in my shots. What temperature do you have set on your Linea mini? Thanks

Another thing to add on is get a flat tamper, the tamper that came with the LMLM is a convex, you will find that your shot will be just that bit more consistent.

I'm not sure if I understand this business with weighing and timing everything. I live in Italy for half my life and never saw a barrista weigh the coffee or time the extraction but the espresso here is always good.

👌🏼🎥

👍😄👍A great one, many thanks! What size should I look at in term of the distributor tool for Linea Mini? 🙏🏼😄🙏🏼

You like (and have) all the things I like (but don’t have). 👍

Can you share where to get the wooden block, seen at 1.06s in the video, where u place the tamper and the ocd. so beautiful

Your Delonghi are Beautiful

Question: why do you transfer the milk from one pitcher to another? I understand if you frothed too much milk but it seems like you poured in all of it.

Do you have to dial in Every time you use it? Or just when you turn it off then back on

this is so dramatic. we're just making coffee haha

Do you change your grinder settings before pulling your first shot ?

Which scale do you use ...

What kind of coffee scale is this?

Btw if you just turn the brew paddle really quick it will wake up from standby. I only use app if I am still in bed, haha

Meanwhile the Delonghi: O_O

Hello!! What brand of cups do you use? ACME CUPS???

hı, ı wondering something too much, ı would be pleasure if you answer. I have delonghi ec685 like you, as well. I'm thinking about buy a new tamper- ı'm sick of its own plastic tamper. Is a 58 mm tamper fit to my ec685's pot? what type of tamper will fit my ec685?

23sec..? Its gonna be sour as it is under extract. But depends on your beans tho

missed 3.5 grams champion

2:58 not perfect tamping 😂😂

What's the purpose of the scale if you've already measured the amount of coffee? Were you calibrating the machine? That scale is like training wheels for someone that's just learning. Have you taken the training wheels off or do you do this every time? I understand if you don't have it down yet. Just asking. It looks like you tried to make this video so professional, but to someone that's been making espresso for over 30 years, you look like an amateur that's trying to show off. I guess it looks cool for people that don't have any experience with making espresso.

I know this isn’t exactly within the scope of your channel, so I won’t speak on behalf of all your viewers, but if you ever wanted to dive deeper into your photography, I wouldn’t be mad about it.

Annoying to see all these "Tips" The creator of this video has obviously spent alot of time and effort to make a brilliant, immersive coffee making video. Not a "How to video". That should be where the constructive criticism is aimed towards and I can guarantee the best in the industry would find it hard to pick even the slightest of criticisms. If you want to echo what you see and learn from other youtube videos or your own experience then make yourself useful and comment on a reddit or discord post or something. Fantastic job on the production of this video and well done @Arty Home.
