Reduced recoil buckshot, magnum buckshot loads, reduced recoil target loads, slugs, and even buck-and-ball loads can be combined in one loadout to offer great versatility. I would never discount a humble single-shot shotgun as it may hit as hard as a $2,000 self-loader. A double-barrel may be a brilliant, fast-handling piece. For example, I might have the grind size at 7 for double-shot, and the grind amount at 1 o'clock on the dial. When extracting, the pressure gauge is about 12-1'oclock. But if I switch to single-shot basket with the same settings, the pressure gauge will be higher (i.e. beyond the solid bar area on the gauge), and I'll get a bitter/astringent A single shot of espresso is 7g of espresso, ground fine, and extracted with 30ml of hot water. What modern espresso drinkers get in most standard coffee shops is a double shot espresso that contains 14g of espresso and 60ml of water. However, suppose you want a smaller drink. In that case, the barista will likely only use half of a double shot So, all you need to do is setting your grinder to single shot amount (7-9 grams). Then, using single or double portafilter according to your needs. When you need a single shot, fill your portafilter with a single shot amount of coffee. Filling your double portafilter with double the amount ends up a doppio or two espressos in two cups. The goal here is to find: Single vs Double basket. How different of a grind size is needed @ 10g:20g ratio. How does it taste. Across all 5 shots, here are my results: Single Basket: Grind is coarser (@3.4 on K-Plus), and it does taste a little bit underextracted. This is almost like having a half-pressurized basket that gives slight off-taste hyCB.
