Fusion Shot Instruction
1. Use 15 to 18g of fresh beans. Grind about 50% coarser than usual.
2. Load ground coffee into basket and assemble the Portashaker tightly. Flip the portafilter over and shake for 5 or more seconds. After shaking, flip the portafilter upright.
3. Tap vertically against a countertop a few times. Rotate the Shaper ring clockwise a few times.
4. [Important] Three things can happen at this point:
a. The Shaper rolls the coffee into a nice, smooth dome,
b. The Shaper sits too high above the puck, leaving big craters across the dome, or
c. The Shaper digs too low into the puck, leaving two heaps of unshaped coffee.
5. Adjust the Shaper position if needed. Repeat Step 3 after adjustment. For 15g dose, start with 2 pieces of small magnets.
a. Insert small magnets into the hex hole of the Shaper, or
b. Remove them using the P-shaped Poker
6. After shaping, tamp with the Happy Tamper D-Flat base. Place the D-Flat puck screen on top and extract. For a standard ratio of 1:2, the ideal Fusion Shot time is around 30 to 35 seconds. Pro tip: Ramp up pressure quickly to 9-bar to maximize compaction effect for a tasty Fusion Shot.
7. Enjoy a cup of channel-free espresso like never before in the history of espresso.
8. After mastering the basic Fusion Shot, gradually increase dose and decrease ratio for even more delicious Fusion Shots.
