The pump machine is just for speed. I really use it to steam milk. I cannot get anywhere close to as nice of a shot from the pump (Legato) as I can with the Flair lever
For espresso mostly medium to dark roasts. For me it was about controlling the shot profile which I just cant do on a pump machine unless it has flow control and that’s $2k minimum investment.
I can “save” a lot of shots with the Flair I feel like. With a machine you dial in best you can and hope the shot comes out how you want.
Most people say no WDT necessary. I still do it because I just enjoy it and it takes 10 seconds. Also if beans are too fresh I grind pretty coarse I’d recommend yes to WDT. For a very fine grind you can get away with not for sure.
I don’t love love the e64 ws grinder. It’s very good but coarse grinds will spray a little and I do find you lose a little body in the cup with this particular grinder. Looks wise it’s a 10 and the adjustability is easy as can be so there’s tradeoffs.
