I can't see / find the original thread at all

Type fo bean = no, wouldn't be the reasons for this. You can not be at touching point if it's grinding that course with new burrs. Something somewhere has gone awry. Are the burrs in correctly, seated correctly , are you turning the adjustment the right way to fine ?

Adjust it finer

Hmmmm...be careful of the hyperbole

Cheers . I don't need all that from any website , just what process , clear , somewhere . Its l very nice to know but none of that stuff ever really swings a purchase for me .

I used to go below 17 with a 9 bar machine, don't worry you have 16 more notches to use.... If you were on 1 or 2 and getting 20 seconds shots then id worry. Fineness will be dependent on roast level, basket used ( VST require a finer grind ) age of coffee, and how good your prep is ( do you use a naked pf ) The old Tesco stuff will be stale so ignore what setting that is on.

Atkinsons should have the Natural Hambella on offer soon. Always a winner. Two chimps door seem to tell you if its washed or natural etc, Little bit annoying.

Its not really the low end.. Nothing bad will happen below 17. Why not grind finer? Lastly Have you calibrated the grinder as per the videos DaveC put up. Are you using decent fresh roasted coffee

How much coffee , in grams are you adding to what size basket ( double or single )

Hambella is a good coffee, local roasters have the washed and natural versions of it at mo. The website for two monkeys is, my lord, style over usability...

Amerciano is a dilute drink , so this may help explain a little. You are not alone in being able to dicern more flavour through a weaker brew, and that is fine. SO re these brewing methods Work towards your preference not the internets.
