Aura Bean Grinding Tip

Even the best grinder can’t compensate for stale coffee. Pair the LEO 55 with freshly roasted beans and make small grind adjustments when dialling in. If your espresso extracts too quickly, grind finer. If it runs too slowly, grind slightly coarser. Tiny adjustments are often all that’s needed to transform an average shot into an exceptional one.
