Why we dialed it like this and other brew thoughts
Series 1 - A quick 5-second preinfusion transitions fast into a full 9-bar infusion to pull an even and round shot.
Pour Over - A standard four-stage pour with a longer draw-down window keeps the cup balanced without pushing into over-extraction.

Grind Guidance
Start in the middle of your espresso range on your grinder, and Series 1 will tell you to go finer or coarser after your shot pulls. It is expected that you might need to adjust based on your specific variables (i.e. location, climate, water mineral content, etc.). Small adjustments go a long way!
Tips
- Adjust grind size if your shot pulls too fast (grind finer) or too slow (grind coarser)
- Clean your Series 1 regularly for optimal performance
