History
Dial-in
Dial-in tip
Start at grind 36 with 18.7g → 31g (1:1.66 ratio) targeting 28–30 seconds. This dark roast will likely need slightly finer grinding than your medium-light references (which dialed in at 38–40) to manage the denser bean structure and extract the creamy chocolate/walnut notes; adjust in 2-step increments (finer to 34, coarser to 38) based on flow timing and taste balance.
