Dial-in tip
Start at grind 37–38 with an 18.7g dose and aim for a 1:2 ratio (37.4g output) targeting 26–28 seconds—this mirrors your best balanced shots with the Ethiopian Shoondhisa and should suit this washed Arbegona's similar origin and brightness. If the shot flows too fast, step finer by 1–2 clicks at a time; if too slow or sour, go coarser by 1 click and watch for that 9–10 second pre-infusion start and even flow across the portafilter.
