We received feedback that some people's home machines were struggling with the fineness of our standard espresso grind, so we added a second espresso grind option for certain models of domestic machines.
The 'domestic' grind size is just a little coarser than the semi-pro to deal with machines with slightly weaker pumps - ensuring the coffee does not choke your machine.
The espresso_domestic setting should be suitable for some of the following machine brands:
・De'Longhi
・Krups
・Gaggia (Gran / Carezza)
The espresso_semi-pro grind should be suitable for some of the following machine brands:
・Gaggia (Classic)
・Rancilio
・Sage / Breville
・La Spaziale
With so many domestic brands and machines on the market, we can not provide advice on all of them. But as a starting point, if your espresso machine cost less than €500, you may be best advised to try the espresso_domestic setting first.
If you have ordered our standard espresso grind from us previously - and it brewed well - simply choose the espresso_semi-pro grind option from now on.
Hope this help!
