As this is a constant experiment and processes change over time, I figure it\u2019s time for an update:\nI have returned to single-dosing, and have 3D printed a single-dose hopper for that purpose. This makes it less convenient for me to rest/outgas my beans but it\u2019s easy enough to just, y'know, open the bag while it waits in the refrigerator.\nMy dose is now 18g, and since I\u2019m single-dosing there\u2019s no time calibration necessary. Also, I give the beans a quick spritz with water (aka \u201cRDT\u201d in coffee nerd circles) to cut down on static and clumping.\nMy leveling process is now to do a vertical tap, and then WDT, with no additional leveling. Also, for the WDT I ended up settling on a bit of cat6 Ethernet cable which I stripped down to the wires which I then straightened, forming a sort of whisk. It\u2019s probably not food-safe, but it works.\nI still tamp as before, although as part of my tamping I also turn the tamper around a couple of times to ensure that the puck is flat and releases.\nI extract either a 2:1 ratio or 30 seconds, whichever comes first, and use that as a guide for dialing in my grind.",
