This was the best video on coffee making I have ever seen, very organized, informative, and easy to understand.
Wow, thank you!
Thanks Mom💜
I wish i could just retire and spend my days as an expert espresso barista making perfect cups of espresso all day ~
Extremely well presented with top notch close-ups ! Thanks !
I am loving your technical videos. Well done and thanks for helping me better understand the black box of espresso!
Well explained and very straight to the point , thank you so much
Excellent comprehensive video on extraction ! 5 Stars
Great video tutorial providing the vital espresso extraction principles,.
as a newbie in this world, this video is a must to me
This video answered all my questions! Super useful for a starter like me. Thank you!
Very clear and well-researched. Thank you!
Great Video. Clear and Precise Explaination. Thank you!
Thanks for all the advice! A key addition to your video is to keep the machine clean, descaled, and not leaking anywhere as all of that caused sub optimal results as well.
These videos are a gold mine for a beginner in espresso. Thank you for making them!
Thanks, Alec! Glad you found it so useful
AJ
thank you. as a newby at home barista - this answers a lot of questions and slow enough that I can retain what you said before going on to the next issue.
This is an excellent, and concise, presentation of all the espresso extraction concerns and their solutions.
Thank you! ☕️
AJ
Fantastic video, thank you for breaking this down and articulating it so well
You're welcome. Thanks for watching and commenting!
AJ
This is the best and most precise explanation of the difference between sour & bitter I’ve yet to come across. That 28 seconds alone (5:18 - 5:46) is worth a significant pay raise from the boss man.
Haha thanks Stephen! I'll pass that along 😉
AJ
Honestly, This video is what I needed for a long time ! He explained almost every aspects many people face with their espresso. I appreciate your explanation and the critical information you mentioned in the video 👍🏻
Thank you very much, Abdulaziz. I'm glad you found the information and presentation helpful!
AJ
One of the best explanations of espresso extraction. Thanks so much!
You're welcome, Tim the Enchanter 🔥
AJ
This is the best espresso video by far 👍🏻👍🏻
Best video that explains everything espresso 101
Thank you! That’s exactly what makes you the best coffee channel by far
Thank you very much, Kamal!
AJ
Thank you for your thorough, detailed, and also simple explanation for troubleshooting espresso, as well as the why’s behind why things are so important to pay attention to! I’ve been a barista for well over a decade and have been on the hunt for well-encompassing videos that really cover all areas of learning your espresso, as well as keeping it detailed but simple. I was relieved to find your video, as you did a PERFECT job covering the things I want to convey to my fellow newbie baristas!!! Thank you so much, please keep it up! I am really looking forward to watching your other videos and using them to help train my coworkers. :D
Thank you for all the kind words! Definitely feel free to use or share the video for training or any other purposes. Cheers! ☕️
AJ
This was the best video I have watched for coffee adjustments. Thanks
Awesome, thank you!
Best video Ive seen about dialing in my espresso. Loved how you broke down seperating sour vs bitter. Also tying troubleshooting methods directly to the outcomes was super helpful. Thanks!
You're welcome and thanks a whole latte for the comment!
Excellent! I'd been having issues for ages with my extractions. The section toward the end on channelling was particularly helpful. I'm now enjoying full flavoured shots and feel confident to take my ballpark extraction to the next level. Thanks for being so clear on the process from start to finish with very little in the way of "filler" material. Top marks
Thanks, Mike. Happy to hear the video already has you pulling better shots!
AJ
Thank you for clear and complete lesson on dialing in. This is the best and most understandable video I’ve seen so far. Awesome👍🏼
Hi sd, Thanks a whole latte for the comment!
In my opinion, this is the best video i watch explaining to the point so many issues producing espresso. I watch so many but this one video has so much detail and good explanation. Well done mate and thank you very much.
Thank you. The kind words are much appreciated!
AJ
Really good video. Explains lot of different aspects and possible traps in which someone preparing nice cup of espresso can get into. These tips are very easy to digest and ready to start experimenting with them. Great job 🙂
Thank you very much, Filip!
AJ
This video is the Bible for me. Thank you for so much dedication!
Loved it ! loved it ! loved it! This channel is purely indeed made of pure love and celebrating the beauty of coffee. Can't find a video more apt and spilling off such crucial information anywhere.
Thank you for the kind comment! It is very much appreciated. Cheers ☕️
AJ
@@Wholelattelovepage as a fellow home barista how do I ask specific questions or consult the experts of the whole latte love regarding queries?
Thanks AJ! Whoever is responsible for putting this video together, 👍🏻👍🏻!
I've been making espresso for going on 30 years, and this is the best video explaining the idiosyncrasies of espresso brewing available. Your clear and logical progression through the process should be archived as "Espresso Analysis 101". ☕
Thanks Bill! It was a one-man production on this one, so I appreciate the comment. You've been making espresso since before I knew what coffee was, so your praise carries extra weight. Cheers to another 30 years of tasty shots ☕️
AJ
Really helpful.Thank you
Awesome video. Focused, organized and terse presentation. Thank you!
This info calms down my frustration and gives me a plan. 🙏
Thanks for the kind words. I'm glad you found it helpful!
AJ
This video could not come at a most convenient time, been having issues with channeling and my shots not tasting the best. I am excited to try some things I learned here. Thank you very much! Always great videos.
Happy to help. Thank you and good luck!
AJ
This video should get more praise it’s a master piece ❤
Hey WA, Thanks so much for the comment - it's appreciated a whole latte!
Fabulous informative video cheers AJ❤
I’ve literally watched so many videos on how to pull a decent shot and this is by far the best and most detailed one I’ve seen. Oh how I wish I would have found this video first to save us a lot of time and effort, but thankfully we are still relatively early on our home espresso journey. Thank you so much for explaining the different problem areas so thoroughly and providing helpful tips on how to troubleshoot each. This video has been so incredibly helpful!
I'm glad you found it so helpful! Thank you for taking the time to watch and comment. Good luck as you continue your espresso journey!
AJ
I got an espresso machine for my birthday and I started to think that the machine was bad because it wasn’t really expensive, but this video reassured me that it was not the machine. This is exactly why I needed. Thanks
Thanks for the clarity. As a newbie to espresso brewing this was extremely helpful!
Superb tutorial, straight to the point and very clearly explained, many thanks.
Hey RL, You're welcome and thanks a whole latte for the comment!
I have waited this video for a long time, thank you so much for sharing your valuable knowledge in a clear manner.
You're welcome. Thanks for watching!
AJ
Brilliant video for me as a beginner, explains the reason why expresso may not turn out as it should. Thanks
You folks nailed it in this vid....very helpful and professional. This is quality customer service. Thanks!
Much appreciated!
Take my sub. Best espresso vid I’ve seen, no BS & clearly explained. Thanks very much!
Amazingly clear and to the point.
Thbanks for the comment!
Im completely new at this and have been researching like crazy. By far this is the most articulate, least fussy or wordy or protentious explanation of how to get a good shot. Thank you for this!.
Hey l, You are welcome bnd thanks a whole latte for the comment!
great explanations 🙏
Brilliant information without the posturing too often seen in the coffee world.
Sheesh so good. Thank you for this video! Appreciate all the info. So clear!
Great video - Concise and sufficiantly technical.
Thanks Casper, I appreciate it!
AJ
Thank you for this video. Understand a lot more now
You are welcome and thanks for the comment!
Excellent explanations. Best video I've seen on this topic. Bravo!
Hey MC, Thanks a whole latte for the comment!
Brilliant. Very informative, well explained. Chapeau!
Thank you kindly!
Probably the best video explanation that I've seen on how to improve your espresso shots. Thanks for taking the time to put it together. Would be great if you made a pdf cheat sheet but that's just me being too lazy to take notes!
Thanks Charles! PDF cheat sheet is a good idea. I'll see if we can get our graphic designer to put one together.
AJ
This was a fantastic video, beautifully made with tons of great info! Thanks!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great video . I was surprised that brew pressure and flow rate were never mentioned though. I realize that there are several available re these issues but they can have a considerable affect on bitterness,sourness and extraction/ crema.
Nothing better than this espresso video. Espresso expressed exceptionally!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Well done
Well done, great ideas for improving espressos presented very clearly!
Thank you very much!
Super helpful !!! This video answered questions I didn't even knowI had. Comments on crema were particularly informative for me.
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you. My favorite part is the crema explanation and how you emphasized that personal preference is important.
You are so welcome!
his channelling extraction is way better than my best try
Everything that I needed is in this video. Thanks ❤
Hi IA, You're welcome!
Great knowledge, easily explained. Thank you
My pleasure
The best video on this topic I've ever seen
Thank you Paolo!
AJ
Nicely explained. I’ve been a barista for over 2 years in one of my past jobs and I can relate to everything you said.
Right on!
This video answers most of my questions, thank you so much.
You are so welcome!
Great video AJ. I like the systematic way you go through each variable, best video I saw on this topic. Few years ago I installed a PID in my Silvia and it was a game changer in terms of adding consistency to the process. I also kept detailed note book listing all variables, such as grind size, timing, etc etc for the various coffees I use. This might seem over the top for some folks, but it's fun to me, and now I can diagnose issues pretty quickly when I'm trying a new coffee bean. And coffee bean is the one thing that will constantly change, no two bags of coffee are ever the same. Cheers.
With the level some people go to, that doesn't seem over the top at all. It actually sounds like a nice way of tracking your process and preferences. True that no two bags will be identical, but at least now you can reference your past experiences and get in the ballpark.
AJ
Great video AJ. Very thorough. Could you and/or Mark revisit some flow control topics in the future? Loving my Synchronika with FC, but I notice some odd extractions at times-e.g. sometimes the 1/4-1/2 extraction will run faster than a regular 1 1/4 with preinfusion. Seems counterintuitive to me…
Hey Spencer, there will be more flow control videos coming eventually. I will say though that shot timing kind of goes out the window when flow profiling. Your example does sound counterintuitive, but I've experienced it myself before as well. The best explanation I've heard is that the low flow gently and evenly saturates the puck, allowing for degassing and expansion of the grounds in a more natural way. Full flow/pressure right out of the gate, especially on a rotary pump machine that ramps up quickly (pretend you didn't do a pre-infusion), can force fines to the bottom and almost "clog" the holes in your basket. The abrupt pressure could also be "re-tamping" your espresso and compacting it further, slowing the flow through the puck.
AJ
Very well explained
Great job
Thank you
Thanks Eric, glad you found it helpful.
AJ
