Freezing bedding is smart, never thought of that.

Yeah but on a curve that rush just makes the lines sloppy lol. Gotta have that working time to get it right.

Yeah, I get that. I had the same problem with my grinder making things worse. What finally helped was changing only one thing at a time and writing it down. I kept a little notebook with the setting, how much coffee I used, and what it tasted like. After a week I saw a pattern and found two settings that worked for my usual beans. Now I only adjust if I switch bean types.
