Hi everyone, here is my brewing diary with espresso machine Gemilai 3605. Hopefully it provide some info for anyone who looking this machine or the similar one. :)
Hello Sir. Im using the exact same machine. How do you consistently hit 9 to 10 bars . Or higher. I want to hit those bars also like yours. But it happens so often What can you suggest? Thank you in advance ❤️
Hi.... Coffee beans will keep oxidation day to day, so need to check the grind size day to day and keep you coffee beans nicely. How do you keep your beans? Between, the older the beans, the smaller grind size is needed.
Hi! Thanks. Between, I think you got an under extraction coffee. 18g in 43ml out is a bit out, usually I try to get 1:2 ratio. Try grind your beans finner to get 18g in 36ml out. If you are using the same machine that using 58mm portafilter, then it is better to be in 20grams instead of 18grams.
@@MrSuparjo86 yes. 20grams in and 40ml out. Usually need around 30-35seconds(depends on your grind size) but try to keep the pressure between 9-15. Here is for your reference about extraction. www.javapresse.com/blogs/grinding-coffee/brew-better-coffee-adjusting-coffee-grind-size

Yes. I reset the extraction time to 40seconds, so I could stop anytime before that. If doesn't move, then need to go slightly coarse. It also happen to me sometimes I grind to finer.
Just press the 2nd button on long press and don’t release not until you found the amount of seconds you want to set then release, after that just press the brewing botton like usual and it will stop automatically on specific time you set😊
Hi.. I'm using 20grams in and 35 ml out as a ristretto shot. For grind size, I'm using 2.5 (but this very subjective, cause it depends on the coffee beans roasting level and how fresh is it. All these will affect the coffee extraction and getting lower or higher bar) so you can try the size one by one.
@@richmancoffeeroasteryhow do you set the automatic timer preset when u click on the extraction button? Mine I had to press it down all the way during the extraction. If not it always stops around 20secs and I can’t get it to stop later
@@ChoonYang94 hi , you just need to long press the extraction button until your Ideal extraction time ( example within 25-30sec ) ，then your next extraction will copy the last extraction time. That's it
Good video po i thnakyou as a begineer in making coffee and latteart kudos po
Welcome. Hope can create more video to help everyone.

That's is the con of this machine, cause using the same heater, so it always happen.
Nice video and tutorial ... if my expresso a bit sour ... what i need to change ? using 18g bean output 43g

can you share the coffee grams you used and the grind settings? how finer is it?

Do u usually warm up the machine for up to 10mins?
Yes. Although the thermoblock should be fast,but I usually keep it longer to warm up full machine.

allo sir... i'm using same grinder you are... may know what setting grinder size for this tutorial
Hi there, in this video I using size 2.
But this grinder not consistent enough, must align it after unbox.
Macam mana nak reset timer tu ??
Tekan Dan jangan lepaskam tangan. Sampai masa Yang nak set baru lepas Kan. Itu saja.😁
should use clear cup, can’t see the coffee
Frothing not frosting...LOL
Thanks.
LOL
pressure to high my dude, and 25s is too short
Pressure is actually low here. On gemilai it should be more than 10-12 bars for a good extraction
Ya, first time playing on the machine. Newbie.
Terrible grinder to use for your espresso.
Agree, already upgraded to f64evo
