#OrbOne instructions say 15g of coffee, regardless of grind.

Tried medium grind for ~4oz output, but had to remove 2g of coffee to fit heat sink (it still seated poorly). Ugh.

Tried fine grind for ~2oz output and used provided scoop, which holds 12g. Ugh.

Having to pre-heat water before attaching top (suggested in fridge magnet and videos linked from quick start guide) is weird.

Expensive yet pretty moka pot alternative, fine for short #espresso shots not so much for regular #coffee.

The #OrbOne is indeed pretty and makes nice pucks (if you can get them out in one piece and they are not too watery). Probably not going to be my daily #espresso or #coffee source regardless.

Tried the #OrbOne today with exactly 12g of fine ground #espresso, since the stated 15g is too much. The puck was too wet (and fell out when I tried to disassemble it per instructions). Yet the ~1½ ounce shot still made a good cappuccino. #coffee

@aardrian this is very cool! I wish they had a slightly bigger one.
