@@maxdc89 hey welcome to the club! If you have any questions I'm still on here just not actively uploading content right now since I moved. I'll probably do some more content soon though. My collection of equipment has grown.

Hey, thanks! And yeah you could do 15. It's not typical but you could reduce The basket size. That should help. If you have this machine, just play with the paddle. Lately I've been doing more slow infusions then ramping up. I'll have to make another video soon, But I just moved across the country so I'm still getting settled

@@QuinCarter Oh awesome man I will watch your next video for sure. Right now my routine is 6-8 seconds preinfusion at 2 then ramp it up. I've ordered a LM 7g basket and want to try making some italian espressos, will need to do a lot shorter preinfusion I guess. You had any experience with these? Thanks !

@@AM-zu1xi no I pull mostly doubles. 19g to about 40g out. I haven't done single shots since I first got my machine or if I pull a ristretto shot. But it's all science and about pressure. Too fine and you'll channel. I have that issue sometimes -- I get greedy wanting finer shots and I either choke the machine or it just breaks down too fast with no room to expand in the basket. 😅

@@QuinCarter Haha, will give you an update on how my desperate journal to pull espresso that takes me back to Naples, gear ordered with small 41mm tamper to match from LM.

@@AM-zu1xi just get you some Lavazza and pull it like a lever shot. Ramp up to 9 bars and gradually decrease pressure as if the lever is going up until you hit your desired yield.

It would be tight. Even with the ability to move the tank on this one, it is still quite a large footprint. I think it would BARELY fit. This machine has been great to me. You won't be disappointed! ❤️

@@QuinCarter Thanks for the reply! Any chance you'd be able to measure the depth from the front of the front feet to the back of the back feet please? If not no worries haha

@@JHermida-u6o I actually thought of you whenever I woke up today. I measured it just now. It is right at 15.75 if you don't put the water tank on the back. I have mine mounted on the side

@@QuinCarter Thanks a lot I really appreciate it!!!

Hey there! Thanks for watching! I use the 12oz/354ml cups. I really like them for lattes. I've recently purchased the size down for capps and I have some Kruve espresso glasses for shots and Cortados. Hope this helps!! 😊

@@QuinCarter thanks for answering so quickly. Did you buy 8oz cups? How do you like the smaller ones?

@@KadinYu I got 10oz cups from Amazon but id like to get some 8oz ones. The smaller ones mean less milk. Makes your espresso a bit punchy so I like them a lot.

Hey there! I'm using the 2 hole tip in this video. I have since moved to the 4 hole tip. It does take quite a bit more practice to get the 4 hole tip perfect. But I have enjoyed the speed thus far. My temp in this video for the service boiler is like 270° F or 132° C. I just did a reset to factory and I've noticed that my recovery is less with the factory setting of like 253° F or 122° C. It doesn't lose steam as often and recovers faster. I get less initial power but it's more consistent.

@@QuinCarter Interesting, thanks

Because that purges the the ultra hot water that is sitting in the boiler. Otherwise, the next time you brew, you could end up brewing way too hot. The steam pressure has to build up to be greater than what you would normally get with brewing. It's completely variable because there's no PID on the stock machine. So you have to do that in order to keep the temperature stability at Bay

@@QuinCarter Interesting... But they need to be at same time? Need both? Cant you just release the hot water from the brew group? The boiler would cool down... Or not?

@@DelReiRock I suppose either one would work. It's a single boiler machine so it's all coming from the same place

@@QuinCarter Thanks man! 😁

Yeah hey no problem! So the GCP is actually a single boiler machine. In order to perform this hack, you essentially purge everything and then you let the steam temperature heat up to a point where it doesn't think it ever finishes heating. Then you get pretty consistent steam pressure without losing any steam power because it just keeps heating up. This is called temperature surfing. I hope that helps. Did that help answer your question?

I've since updated my setup a little to account for a faster workflow. I can make a latte in about 2 minutes now. And I changed the steam tip to be the 4 hole tip and it went much faster for steaming.

@@QuinCarter 2 min that is really fast.

@@woxiduswoxidus1167 yeah I pre dose my beans now and I steam and pull my shot at the same time. Makes it a lot more efficient for sure!

This video was definitely a lot slower than I remember lol. I just rewatched it myself and I've definitely gotten a lot better since then

@@QuinCarter Milk changes coffee taste to much (adding sugar too). I think in this case espresso ruotine cold be simplified or left just for practicing espresso, since pure espresso more demanding for right taste. Usually average barista have programmed grinder timer and programmed extraction timer on machine- there is no time to play with "all toys" on rush hours...

It might. I'm not sure! I only had the GCP and I don't even own it anymore.

@@QuinCarter Thanks. I guess I'll try it and find out

Purging all steam out of the *single boiler is where you start. The boiler on the GCP is small but temp is unstable. This allows you to temp surf and prevent the GCP from shutting off the heating.

Not hard at all! Like two screws!

It's a saint Anthony industries tamping station and I got it from Clive Coffee. Look for Saint Anthony's Industries The Block

@@QuinCarter Thanks man, just ordered it

Yes! It makes it so I don't have to just have oat milk or almond! ❤️

Hey there! I didn't buy everything all at once. 😉

@@QuinCarter grinding on my jmax I need extra human strength. I'm using paper filters now instead of puck disks.

@@infringinator hey how's that working for you?? I've wondered about paper filters.

@@QuinCarter apparently unfiltered coffee raises cholesterol. Using a 51mm paper on the bottom of puck good so far. You can still use your disk on top but I stopped using one.

@@infringinator I'll give that a shot!

Hey there! Thanks for watching! So the flow is controlled by the paddle on the top of this machine. What do you mean you can't control the flow? Do you have a Lelit Bianca?

Hey thanks for watching! Yeah usually I use 99% of my milk on my pour. I've got the measurements down pretty well. Any extra I have I just dump down the sink. I wouldn't reuse it -- it's been heated so once cooled, it won't have the same flavor.

Hey thanks for watching! Yeah I don't pull anything darker. I get much more complex flavor profiles and it makes the espresso taste great once dialed in. And yes. It's a VST basket but a 20g. 😉

Well I had it for a year and a half or so. It was fine when I gave it to a friend. I got a new grinder though. My only complaint was it was very loud. Like the loudest freaking grinder I've ever heard.

Check out my new videos for my new setup! It's more updated and I'd consider this video more of "what not to do" when pulling espresso on the GCP.

That's a Fellow Atmos container! Love those things. It is good for more than just coffee -- it seals up and sucks the air out of it so it is air tight. Thanks for watching! 😉

Thanks for the feedback! I'll tone it down in the future! Thanks for watching too!

Hey there! I use the 2 hole tip. 4 holes produced way too much foam and was a lot harder to control. Too much aeration. 2 holes let me control it a lot easier for latte art and that kind of silky milky.

Thank you for watching!

Puck screen is the normcore 58.5 mm amzn.to/3aFJbZt

@@QuinCarter thank you i thought it 58 as the size of portafilter?

@@alaaissa3494 58mm is the size of the portafilter (mostly). 58.5 ensures it goes all the way to the edges. I have a 58.5mm tamper as well. Trust me, it works.

@@QuinCarter thank you the last question the size of Funnel please

@@alaaissa3494 it's this one! amzn.to/3AOvPEU

I'm not sure about the exchange rate. You could probably order it from a Lelit retailer in Europe. I know the price is inflated some in USA because of import taxes. Check the grinder as well somewhere in Europe

No I didn't!

Using pro 2 and jx-pro. U don’t need electronic grinder.

@@ДаниилКириллов love to get a F58 though 😂

I'll do a video about it. But it's pretty comparable! I can get pretty good shots on both (helps that my grinder is decent too). The flair is awesome for quick shots when I don't want to wait for the Bianca to get to temp and internals heat up

th-cam.com/video/tKC8o6Wou7M/w-d-xo.html I did my initial thoughts over the flair if you wanna watch it!

@@QuinCarter Nice. Thanks

Pretty sure it's all in the LCC.

Hey there! Thanks for watching! So there isn't any programming for the entire shot time. You can do stuff with the flow control paddle and adjust the pressure and Flow during the shot. There is an option in the lelit control panel to set up some kind of pre-infusion, but you can do it manually with the flow control paddle with a little more control. Hope this helps!

@@QuinCarter Thanks mate, I watched some of the following around 5min mark, it shows a low flow then up to 9 bars and back..I found another with pre infusion, bloom and then low flow..maybe different models maybe this is EU? th-cam.com/video/_Tn84Gp_xcQ/w-d-xo.html

@@Rawprawned well yep. I stand corrected. I don't have that LCC

That’s the V3 I think mate, ask your supplier

@@Rawprawned Clive Coffee is where i got it. They said it was the v3 when i bought it. But i don't have the programming options for the shots in my LCC that i can find.

Hey thanks for watching! These are handled 12oz NotNeutral Lino Latte Mugs(they make a handless version too). I love them. They are solid and heavy and I'd recommend them to anyone. Great for latte art with the wide mouth on it.

@@QuinCarter Cheers mate! Can’t wait to pick up a few of these bad boys

This is fantastic advice! Thank you very much! I will do this next time I steam oat milk! Also thanks for watching! 😉

@@QuinCarter You're welcome! Thank you for creating the video and sharing with us. It takes a lot to create and edit the videos so I really appreciate you spending the time to share your setup/process with us.

Thanks for watching!! Haha so yeah you make a great point. That funnel sits too high to use the button on the Atom 75 if it's attached to the portafilter. I have tried to use it before, and I don't make a mess most days. Also I use a chest mount camera when I record these -- it kind of gets in my way/I end up staring at it when I'm working with it on and tend to make a mess. 🤣 I haven't used the double spout much. It's just me and my wife that drink coffee in my house. And this: c.tenor.com/jguP3vAjdX8AAAAM/matt-le-blanc-joey.gif (we are both pretty greedy with our shots and the amount, so splitting a shot is out of the question 🤣🤣)

Lol to each their own! I've enjoyed it. It's been a journey finding out I'm lactose intolerant in my 30s. I've found out a lot about my diet in the last few months. Oat definitely tastes better to me than Almond. I still drink lactose free whole milk too. That's probably my favorite. Oat is just a cool challenge with latte art!

I got mine from Clive Coffee!

@@QuinCarter thought so - but they don't have it listed on the website.. I will call them

I spoke to Clive - they don't have V3 as the 110 V model is not out

@@yoda4697 ah then I guess mine is the V2! They had told me it was V3 when I got it back in October.

It's a Saint Anthony Industries Bloc!

@@QuinCarter thank you so much!

Hey thanks for watching! Depends on if I spill. But it's not bad. Like once a week with the rest of my towels 👍🏼. Sometimes more often if I make a mess 🤣

Hey thanks for watching! I've actually really liked it for single dosing. Just make sure you do a decent cleaning on it like once a month or when you switch beans. This guy has an Etsy and Amazon shop but he has a warehouse in the states. Very worth it if you ask me. This is the one I got. He has one for all the eureka grinders amzn.to/3vjV9yi
