Summary of ARE PUCK SCREENS WORTH IT? The Truth Revealed
The video discusses the use of puck screens and filters in espresso machines to improve water distribution over the coffee puck, leading to more even extractions and tastier coffee. Various types of screens, including mesh screens and paper filters, are compared in terms of their impact on shot times and extraction yields. The speaker conducted experiments with different methods and found that puck screens increased extraction yields, but also caused more resistance and longer shot times. Bottom paper filters were found to increase surface area and improve extraction efficiency, especially in baskets with wider holes. The speaker recommends using bottom paper filters for standard baskets to improve shots. The data analysis was done by Jonathan G, and the speaker thanked So Coffee Roasters for providing coffee for the experiments. The video ends with a call to like, subscribe, and check out the speaker's Patreon and second YouTube channel for more content. The main speaker is Lance Hedrick.
